Chava Chava , also known as Chava the Wise , was a female Lasat mystic who survived the fall of Lasan at the hands of the Galactic Empire . She became a refugee and , along with former Lasan High Honor Guard sman Gron , was rescued from Imperial captivity by the rebel crew of the " Ghost " . With the assistance of Garazeb Orrelios , a member of the " Ghost " crew , Chava was able to help find the way to Lira San , the ancient homeworld of the Lasat spoken of in legend . After discovering the planet , Chava remained on Lira San with the millions of Lasat who already lived there . Biography . Rediscovery of Lira San . Chava the Wise and her traveling companion Gron , a former Lasan High Honor Guard sman , were one of the few Lasat to survive the brutal Imperial pacification of Lasan . In 3 BBY , Chava and Gron embarked on a quest to find Lira San , a legendary planet that was regarded as a sanctuary for the Lasat species . Their travels led them to smuggle themselves in a cargo container on Nixus Hub 218 where they were discovered by Imperial forces , who had been tipped off by the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka . However , Ohnaka had also alerted his one - time " business partner " Ezra Bridger . Chava and Gron were promptly detained by Imperial stormtrooper s , who intended to ship them to a detention camp . However , Ezra and his rebel cell rescued the two Lasat and overpowered their Imperial captors . Chava and Gron were delighted to learn that one of their rescuers was Garazeb Orrelios , a former Captain in the Honor Guard . As the two Lasat and their rebel rescuers made their way back to the rebels ' starship " Ghost " , Chava told her rescuers that she and Gron were searching for Lira San . On the way , they were ambushed by more stormtroopers but managed to escape due to assistance from Ohnaka . Chava and her companions then escaped into hyperspace aboard the " Ghost " . Once in hyperspace , Chava informed her rebel rescuers that she did not know the location of Lira San since it was only mentioned in ancient Lasat prophecy . In order to find it , Chava told her hosts that a prophesied " child " had to first save the " warrior " and the " fool " . When the astromech droid Chopper commented in Binary that she was " weird " , Chava issued an angry rebuke . With the help of Ezra , Chava and Gron began a ritual designed to help them find Lira San . While Zeb was initially unwilling to help due to his lingering guilt over his failure to safeguard the Lasat royal family and Lasan , Ezra managed to convince the former Captain to help his Lasat compatriots protect their people by finding Lira San . Zeb reluctantly agreed to participate in the ritual . As part of the ritual , Chopper had projected a holographic map of the galaxy . Zeb then activated his bo - rifle in the ancient Lasat style which interacted with Chava ' s staff , producing a surge of electricity that pinpointed Lira San ' s location to a set of coordinates in Wild Space , an uncharted region outside of the Outer Rim Territories . Using these coordinates , Chava and her rebel hosts traveled to Lira San but found their path obstructed by a collapsed star cluster . The rebels were also trapped by an " Arquitens " - class command cruiser led by Agent Kallus which had emerged from hyperspace to capture or destroy them . After Agent Kallus issued his ultimatum , Chava identified Kallus as the warrior doing his part . Due to the long - time animosity between Zeb and Kallus ( who had played a role in the Fall of Lasan ) , Zeb was initially dismissive of Chava ' s observation . Chava then explained that there were many warriors , fools , and children . According to the prophecy , a child saw things not as they are but how they could be while the fool denied his destiny , and the warrior created his own destiny . Chava said that no one was ever just one of them , but rather in time , assumed all of these roles . After listening Chava ' s words , Zeb realized that he had to forge both his own destiny and that of his people . Using the bo - rifle , Zeb guided the " Ghost " through the collapsed star cluster . The Imperial light cruiser attempted to pursue them but was forced to retreat due to the gravitational pull of the star cluster . After passing through the gravity field , the " Ghost " jumped into hyperspace . Chava and her traveling companions were knocked out by a bright blaze of light . When they awoke , they sighted Lira San in the horizon . Chava and Gron accompanied Zeb on the " Phantom " to Lira San . There , they discovered that the planet was the original Lasat homeworld and was home to millions of Lasat already . While Chava and Gron quickly settled on their new - found home , Zeb decided to return to his rebel companions so that he could bring more Lasat to Lira San . Personality and traits .
