Jan Ors , who led Katarn ' s campaign , decided that analyzing the samples would help the alliance to trace the origins of the project . Prelude . In 0 ABY , the Alliance to Restore the Republic became aware of an Imperial weapons project known as the Dark Trooper Project . As part of the effort to derail the project , Alliance operative Kyle Katarn was dispatched to the Anoat sector where he captured Moff Rebus , the designer of the prototype weapons to be used in the Imperial project .

Located in the Atrivis sector of the Outer Rim Territories , Fest was home to an Imperial Weapons Research Facility ; its existence was confirmed for the Rebels by General Crix Madine , an Imperial with Rebel sympathizers . The Alliance decided that any data from the testing facility would be of use in defeating the Dark Troopers . Rebel operative Jan Ors briefed Kyle Katarn on the mission , although she gave him a large degree of leeway in exactly how to conduct it . The Weapons Facility on Fest was built deep under large rock outcroppings with a strongly defended entrance guarded against frontal assault . The mission . Entering the Weapons Facility . Katarn was flown to the planet Fest by Ors in the starship , the " Moldy Crow " and dropped on a narrow ledge overlooking a ravine . Following the ledge , Katarn emerged into a large clearing occupied by several stormtroopers led by an Imperial Navy officer . Eliminating the Imperial force , Katarn followed an upward path that climbed through the cliffs eventually emerging above a large courtyard which contained a large multi - story building and a sizable door set into the cliff face . Katarn dropped down to the courtyard , engaging a unit of stormtroopers on parade , and , avoiding the main entrance , climbed a staircase built into the cliff face .
