A dying star became a red giant during the High Republic Era,[1] around 382 BBY.[2] During the star's transformation, it consumed the planets which had orbited it. The red giant's transformation was witnessed by the Galactic Republic communications droid EX-8C, which was on a journey from the planet Gloam in search of help for Jedi Master Rok Buran, the remaining member of the Republic Pathfinder team to which the droid had been attached.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The red giant was mentioned in the 2022 junior novel The High Republic: Quest for the Hidden City, written by George Mann for the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project.[1]

Star Wars: The High Republic Chronological Reader's Guide on StarWars.com (backup link) establishes that Phase II media of Star Wars: The High Republic chronologically begins with the novel The High Republic: Quest for the Hidden City. As Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia dates the events of Quest for the Hidden City and the end of Phase II to 382 BBY, Phase II titles of The High Republic must be set in that year.
