After the study by Jedi Master Healer Cilghal , the Jedi concluded that Gorog , the " Dark Nest " , was a secret nest within the Killik colony , commanded by Nightsister Lomi Plo and Dark Jedi Welk . The Gorog was determined to machinate a reason for war against the Chiss Ascendancy by manipulating UnuThul and the Unu hive with the Force . The Jedi planned to root out and eliminate the Dark Nest so that the crisis between the Chiss and the Killiks could be peacefully resolved . Gorog Joiner , former Jedi Knight Alema Rar , was allowed to flee the Jedi Academy on Ossus with a captured Gorog assassin , with the Jedi task force following closely behind . The battle . Alema Rar and Gorog fled to Kr , the moon of the planet Qoribu , which held the Taat nest . Jedi Masters Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker followed close behind in StealthX starfighters . The Skywalkers encounter heavy dartship resistance and were forced to land . There , Luke and Mara stormed into the Gorog nest , and were ambushed by a relentless outpouring of Gorog warriors , having to fight their way deeper and deeper into the nest . Meanwhile , the " Millennium Falcon " arrived at Qoribu but was detected by the fleets of the Chiss Ascendancy and the Hapes Consortium . Commander Jagged Fel of the Chiss and Dukat Aleson Gray of Hapes refused to believe Leia Organa Solo ' s claim that the Jedi could end the crisis . As the Hapes fleet moved to advance position to supposedly help the Jedi on Kr , the Chiss maneuvered as well and so started the Battle of Qoribu . The " Falcon " was temporarily caught in the crossfire from both sides until C - 3PO declared their neutrality in the conflict . The " Falcon " blasted through a swarm of dartships with its repulsor beam and landed on Kr , deploying the Solo couple , Jedi Masters Saba Sebatyne , Kyp Durron , Kyle Katarn and Octa Ramis , and four YVH 5 Bugcruncher war droid s . The reinforcements fought their way against Gorog warriors to join forces with the Skywalker Masters . Battle intensified as Luke and Mara dueled with Alema Rar , Welk , and the Gorog assassin respectively . The Force darkened as the Skywalkers used Force Choke and Force lightning against their enemies . A mysterious attacker drew away the power cells of the Jedi lightsabers and blasters , and slowing down the motion of Luke . Although Luke was convinced that it was Lomi Plo , the Jedi could not find her . Sensing the path of the Jedi had gone wrong , Luke refused to use anymore dark side power and outwitted the Dark Jedi . The battle ended with Mara defeating the Gorog assassin , which was killed by Welk , who attempted to blow Mara away with the insect ' s explosion . Luke killed Welk and injured Alema , but the Twi ' lek fled ; Lomi Plo was nowhere to be found . Numerous Gorog warriors were killed in the battle , with the Jedi losing two Bugcrunchers . Aftermath . The " Falcon " , left in the landing site , was under enemy fire with the Noghri bodyguards Cakhmaim and Meewalh defending the ship . Jaina Solo and Zekk arrived and killed the attackers with their StealthXs , while Jae Juun and Tarfang attempted to hijack the " Falcon " . C - 3PO issued an emergency call but was shut down . UnuThul moved his flagship to Kr as the battle of Qoribu stabilized and stopped the hijacking . Leia then showed UnuThul the Dark Nest , its captive room that killed Chiss captives to feed the Gorog , and the body of Welk . Leia proposed a compromise to the Colony and the Chiss , which was accepted by both sides and led to the signing of the Qoribu Truce .
