A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
Our story unfolds on Lothal, a planet in the Outer Rim Territories. The timeline begins in 0 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin), just after the Empire's retreat from a now ecologically ruined and resource-stripped Lothal. Newly liberated by the Spectres, an early Rebel cell featured in the animated series Star Wars Rebels, Lothal now faces an uncertain future as a 'Free World'. Although the Empire's direct control has waned, its lingering influence continues to be felt, Imperial Shadows cast upon a world in fear of its potential return.
However, peace remains elusive. Many pro-Imperial corporations have not fled, their remote factories producing military hardware despite supply and security difficulties. The underworld thrives, capitalizing on a planet that has grown reliant on its illicit services. Rebel cells and agents diligently counter the Empire’s remnants, even as the Rebellion's attention remains focused on the wider war erupting throughout the galaxy. Amidst all of these competing powers, countless civilians brave the chaos, take sides, and strive for survival.
