Zaraksander

Zaraksander was an astronomical object in the Expansion Region's Imberlin sector. It was the site of the Fioer desert, and an Eloinie Petro-Munitions munitions factory was located on the celestial body's southern continent.
At some point by 4 ABY, the bounty hunter Valken Gresh captured Zaglis, the Supreme Leader of the Neo-Fundamentalist Phlangites group, on Zaraksander. A day later, the forces of the Phlangites had kidnapped the daughter of the Eloinie Petro-Munitions chief executive officer while she had been participating in the Peaceful Dawn Rally demonstration. The chief executive officer subsequently recruited Gresh to retrieve his daughter from the Phlangites in the Fioer desert.

At one point, the bounty hunter Valken Gresh brought in the organization's Supreme Leader Zaglis. During the process, Gresh had to escape from the Phlangites in Zaraksander's Fioer desert, leading the bounty hunter to swear off ever facing the group again.
Around the same time, the Peaceful Dawn Rally was held, in which Cyrstas Eloinie, the daughter of Eloinie Petro-Munitions Chief Executive Officer Darred Eloinie, displayed her support for the causes of the Neo-Fundamentalist Phlangites. During the demonstration, the Phlangites kidnapped Cyrstas and demanded a ransom payment from Darred.
Instead of paying the group, the elder Eloinie recruited Gresh to retrieve his daughter. Subsequently, on the following day after Gresh's initial encounter with the NFP forces and three hours after the bounty hunter's recruitment by Eloinie's underling, Gresh was in the Fioer desert again, although the NFP were aware of the hunter's imminent arrival. Later, Gresh recorded the experiences on Zaraksander in the work Great Hunts I've Lived To Tell About.
