Maxico and her team of assassins had just obtained the holocrons from Rahli and Wek Lekatro, killing both criminals but losing Aimon Bathiriat in the process. Hot on their heels, Kyriel and her master, Breek Zagrev, chased the Mecrosa down into the underlevels, though Breek was hampered by injuries she had received in a previous fight. Breek spotted the Mecrosa below them, but was already spending of her Force reserves to keep herself mobile and alert. She had Kyriel the bridge the Mecrosa planned to cross.

Breek demanded the holocrons, and Maxico initially refused, believing Breek and Kyriel to be agents of the Jedi.

Conscious of her injuries, Breek instead delegated Kyriel to fight in her place.

Kyriel fought with the stolen lightsaber of Zee Pek, and Evangelia with her. Maxico's -like style initially stymied Kyriel, who was unfamiliar with it, but Kyriel's superior training in the Force ultimately carried the day, and she stabbed Evangelia through the shoulder of her sword arm. Conceding defeat, Maxico surrendered the holocrons. Rather than have Kyriel kill them all, Breek allowed the Mecrosa to live, suspecting that Sith loyalists might be useful in the future.
