Biography

Escape from Hoth

In 3 ABY, Tash escaped the Imperial attack on Hoth together with her brother Zak and their uncle Hoole. While they were still in the Hoth system aboard the Shroud, they received a distress signal from the drifting freighter Keefe's Needle. The Needle's occupants, a woman and her two children, had been driven mad and then killed by droch parasites; with the help of DV-9, the freighter was sterilized and Zak, Tash and Hoole went aboard. They found tokens from the Imperial Lottery, which would have granted the family the right to settle on the Emperor's mysterious resort world of Byss. When Tash touched the tokens, she had a sudden premonision of danger. The Arrandas and Hoole then took on the identities of the Keefe family, hoping to gain intelligence on Byss for the Rebel Alliance.[2]

Life on Byss

By 4 ABY, eight months after the Battle of Endor, Tash and Zak were living on Byss, in the city surrounding the Emperor's Citadel. They were unaware of the Citadel's function, and when Palpatine's Force lightning was visible near its tip, Tash reassured the baby called "Little T" that they were quite safe.

In late 5 ABY, Tash and Zak were still living on Byss and still oblivious, with another baby called "Little Z." When the sun Beshqek exploded and Palpatine tried to contain the supernova using the Kaan Heptad, Tash felt a sudden unease with their situation, telling Zak that something was wrong with them, with Byss, and with the children. Zak reassured her that there was nothing to be afraid of.[2]
