The Catastrophe was the name given by Alderaanians to the near total destruction of Alderaan's farming community. Occuring in 1 BBY, it was the end result of Epin Lanmaw's mission to kill his parents, Sadvo and Lania.

Initiation
Epin arrived on the outskirts of the farming district and made his way to his homestead. He found his parents were not at home and proceeded to draw them out by burning the farm. . As expected, his father confronted his son, and they engaged in combat. Epin easily overpowered his father and killed him. His mother was next on the scene, arriving just as Epin finished off his father. no words were spoken, only tears from Lania to see her only son traveliing down the dark path. They battled, and as skillful as Lania was, she was no match for her son's dark power. He decapitated his mother, even after she surrendered.
