Mission to Coruscant (Mezzilenic War)

The Mission to Coruscant was an attempt by the Jedi Coalition to free political prisoner Merix Valorum from Coruscant and the grip of the Galactic Republic.

Prelude
With the war going the Coalition's way, the allies had begun to fall out amongst themselves with the faction loyal to Democratic Republican Party leader Arf Fey'lya striving for dominance. Things came to a head when Fey'lya orchestrated the Battle of Dac where he helped his Quarren allies to supplant their rivals the Mon Calamari as the dominant species of the planet. Many worlds were outraged by this action and some switched sides and rejoined the Republic and the Jedi realised that they needed someone to unite the Coalition together.

Merix Valorum had long been an opponent of the Republic's corrupt Supreme Chancellor Signet Mezzileen and following the Siege of Ossus, he was imprisoned along with several other political prisoners. His position made him a hero to many in the Coalition and his position as a moderate was seen by the Jedi as a way to combat the dangerous fananticism of Arf Fey'lya. The Jedi Council tasked Jedi Master Nin and his apprentice Thame Cerulian to lead a mission to rescue Merix. Nin contacted his old friend the smuggler Hena Glotz who provided the Jedi and their team with transport to Coruscant.
