Vetine was[2] a planet[3] located in the Merrick sector[2] within the Inner Rim Territories.[1] It was the location of an Imperial base with a research lab containing the two remaining fragments of the Great Tree that Darth Sidious stole from the Jedi Temple after declaring himself Emperor and converting the temple into the Imperial Palace. Luke Skywalker and Shara Bey of the Alliance to Restore the Republic carried out a mission to retrieve the tree fragments from the Empire.[2]
