- "You ever run a job out to Zekulae, at the heart of the Zeemacht Cluster, lift your eyes from the comm for a minute. You'll be staring up at a matrix of bright orange and red giants, neutron stars, pulsars, and blue stragglers the Zeku call the Cosm's Well. It's about the most beautiful thing I've ever seen that I couldn't buy or sell, and that's saying something."

The Zeku were the inhabitants of the planet Zekulae,[2] located in the Zeemacht Cluster of the Inner Rim.[3] Their planet was a barren world, noted for its dark, rich mineral soil, studded with blue crystals. Its soil was so fine, that it was everpresent on the planet. The Zeku government took a relaxed approach to laws, and as such, it was not uncommon for disputes to be resolved through physical force or blasters.[2]
Visible from Zekulae was a globular cluster of orange and red giants, neutron stars, pulsars, and blue stragglers which the Zeku called Cosm's Well.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The Zeku were created by Jude Watson for her young adults novel, Jedi Apprentice: The Death of Hope, published in 2001. The novel leaves it unclear whether the term Zeku is a species or a demonym.
