Mission to Daluuj In 138 ABY , during the Second Imperial Civil War , the crew of the pirate ship " Mynock " undertook a mission to the planet Daluuj , where they hoped to find and kill the Sith scientist Vul Isen . Cade Skywalker — a former Jedi and the current captain of the " Mynock " — had recently begun a personal crusade against the Sith , and Isen became his first target after the scientist poisoned the oceans of the planet Dac . Acting on some purchased intelligence , the crew traveled to Isen ' s laboratory on Daluuj . After landing on - world , the " Mynock " mechanic , Deliah Blue ; co - pilot Jariah Syn ; and astromech droid R2 - D2 stormed the laboratory , where they killed a group of Imperial stormtroopers but found no sign of their quarry . As Syn planted timed explosives , Skywalker and Jedi Master Wolf Sazen defeated a group of Sith in lightsaber combat on a nearby bridge . Skywalker demanded that his last surviving opponent reveal the whereabouts of the " Butcher of Dac " but learned only that Isen was no longer on Daluuj . He thus left his maimed opponent to die as the entire crew rushed to their ship and lifted off in time to escape from the exploding laboratory . Prelude . In late 137 ABY , during the Second Imperial Civil War , the former Jedi Cade Skywalker — who had recently become the captain of the pirate vessel " Mynock " — was manipulated by the Sith Lady Darth Maladi into traveling to the planet Wayland . There , Maladi kidnapped the " Mynock " mechanic , Deliah Blue , and implanted Yuuzhan Vong coral growths onto her back . Skywalker ' s former Jedi Master , Wolf Sazen , was also on - world , having been led by the Force to the side of his one - time student . After Skywalker mentally attacked Maladi with the Force and sent her fleeing , Sazen convinced him to heal Blue ' s sickness using the light side of the Force rather than the dark transfer healing power that he traditionally called upon . Curing Blue caused Skywalker to reject the dark side , and he afterward vowed to wage war against the One Sith . Around the same time , Vul Isen — a Sith scientist in the service of Darth Krayt ' s Empire — poisoned the oceans of the planet Dac . His viral spore s killed every living being on the water world who was not evacuated in time by the Galactic Alliance Remnant . When Skywalker learned of the event , he deduced that killing Isen would deal the Sith a severe blow , and the " Butcher of Dac " became the first target of his crusade . With Sazen as their newest member , the crew of the " Mynock " purchased intelligence from the Sakiyan Naxy Screeger that indicated Isen was on the planet Daluuj . The mission . Early in 138 ABY , the " Mynock " landed on Daluuj outside of Isen ' s laboratory , and Deliah Blue , along with Skywalker ' s co - pilot , Jariah Syn , and astromech droid R2 - D2 , stormed the building . Although Isen was not there , they encountered a group of Imperial stormtroopers , who subsequently fell to the might of their blasters . After the lightfight concluded , Blue stood guard as R2 - D2 sliced into the laboratory ' s computer system , while Syn planted timed explosives . Meanwhile , Skywalker and Sazen engaged a group of Sith in lightsaber combat on a bridge adjacent to the laboratory . As their foes fell to their blades , Skywalker demanded that the Sith tell him where Isen had gone . Eventually , a lone Sith remained , and he exchanged taunts with Skywalker as they dueled . The former Jedi was able to sever the Sith ' s legs at the knee , and with his opponent at his mercy , Skywalker promised to spare his life if he disclosed the whereabouts of both Isen and the scientist ' s planet - killing toxins . The Sith revealed only that Isen had previously used Daluuj as a base and had left none of his secrets behind . Syn then contacted Skywalker and informed him that the explosives had been set , and , having obtained no useful information , Skywalker left his protesting opponent to die as he and Sazen rushed to their ship . The entire crew boarded the " Mynock " and got the vessel airborne shortly before the base and the bridge exploded . Aftermath . The " Mynock " departed Daluuj , and its crew found themselves without any leads in their hunt for Isen . However , the Hutt Queen Jool soon contacted them and insisted that they come immediately to the planet Nal Hutta . They obliged their old friend ' s request , and upon arriving Skywalker met with Jool and Vedo Anjiliac Atirue , from whom he learned that Isen had also poisoned the Hutt moon of Da Soocha . Additionally , Vedo ' s nephew Azzim had been killed in an Imperial orbital bombardment of the planet Napdu . In response , the Hutts had set into motion a plan to lure Isen to the planet Utapau , and they hired Skywalker to follow the scientist there and assassinate him . The " Mynock " made its way to Utapau , where a final showdown with Isen awaited Skywalker . Behind the scenes . The crew of the " Mynock " mission to Daluuj appears in the of the comic series " " .
