Battle on the Kiss of Death

In 1,385 BBY, Tirien Kal-Di led a Mission to Allanteen, planning to assassinate Sith Overlord Vedya Gasald in reprisal for the destruction of the Seventy-Second Republic Battle Group at the Battle of Eriadu, and to check Gasald's march against the Core. Republic Jedi Kal-Di, Yan Razam, Raven Kaivalt, and Harshee Nefkin were aided by a number of Jedi. Unbeknownst to them, Lezascan Wisté, fearing the mission was doomed and Gasald would retaliate against the Tapani, sold out the mission to Celop Faro, Gasald's  in charge of Intelligence. Wisté convinced his former, Kobold Baliss, to support him.

Faro sent a team of to the  to kill the Jedi upon their arrival, save for Baliss, Lezascan, and Lezascan's son, Amaani. However, the kill team was discovered, intercepted, and eliminated by Jarkun'eir'saikal. By the time Faro and Gasald discovered what had happened, the Jedi team reached the Kiss of Death. Gasald called her Sith Lords to her throne room, but Darth Kra'all, the greatest warrior among them, was diverted to the bridge to deal with the early stages of a battle.

In the throne room, the Jedi faced off against the Sith Lords, supported by a handful of Sith Acolytes and Gasald's White Guard. Gasald used her powers of manipulation to undermine the morale and confidence of the strike team, and revealed Wisté and Baliss as traitors. Despite this, Amaani refused to join his father and best friend; he attacked Gasald directly, beginning an all-out melee.

Gasald killed Amaani, Chiron Brascel, and Jarkun, while the Jedi ravaged her White Guards. In the end she faced off against Tirien alone in a war of Force powers. Meanwhile, Baliss killed Gaebrean Kaivalt, but was himself killed by Raven. When Tirien overpowered Gasald by redirecting her own at her, he and Yan Razam cut off her hand and her arm respectively. Tirien began to Gasald to death, but his Padawan Narasi Rican, prompted by Zaella Sabir, talked Tirien back from the brink of the dark side. Yan insisted on executing Gasald in cold blood, but Tirien stopped her and defeated her in a brief duel.

While the battle was going on, Harshee Nefkin, Jirdo Yushari, and Bernius had sabotaged the Kiss of Death ' s shield generators, and the skirmish outside had expanded into a full-scale battle. The Kiss of Death began to take serious damage, and Gasald escaped in the confusion. The survivors of the battle fled to the hangar bay, taking Gaebrean's body, and escaped in the Second Chance.
