- "I tell you the truth! I swear on my grandma, Venta!"
- ―Garri swears on his grandmother
A woman named Venta was the grandmother of Garri, a Toydarian who lived in Pau City on the planet Utapau[1] in the Outer Rim Territories.[2] In 19 BBY,[3] during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Jedi Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived in Pau City to investigate the death of Jedi Master Tu-Anh and eventually made their way into Garri's building upon realizing that the precision laser dart that shot Tu-Anh had been fired from there. Thrown against a wall and threatened by Skywalker after lying about knowing nothing of the matter, Garri swore on Venta's life that he would tell the truth, informing the Jedi of how a IG-100 MagnaGuard droid had bribed him to keep the building open for a meeting.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Venta was mentioned in the story reel of "A Death on Utapau,"[1] which was planned to be the first episode in the canceled sixth season of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series.[4] On September 25, 2014, the unfinished story reel was released on StarWars.com as part of The Clone Wars Legacy project.[5]
