Ferrok Pax was home to the kingdom of a proto-species which was reduced to ruins by the time of the Galactic Empire's reign. At some point by 1 BBY,The Rogue One: A Star Wars Story novelization establishes that the 61st Mobile Infantry was deployed to Ferrok Pax prior to the Battle of Scarif, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 1 BBY. a group of warriors held members of the Rebel Alliance captive at Ferrok Pax. The Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry was subsequently deployed to Ferrok Pax to save the captured rebels. Numbering barely two-hundred rebel soldiers, the company approached the enemy by foot to maintain their stealth and flank the warriors. The 61st marched for days through the ruins of the ancient proto-species kingdom, their supplies dwindling. Many soldiers were left behind, unable to walk or starving to death. Others were lost to creatures or alien technology the 61st did not understand.
The soldiers eventually found and fought the warriors, claiming victory and extracting the captured rebels. However, only thirty-seven of the troops sent remained, including the Besalisk Gadren, a newer member of the company. Captain Micha Evon, the 61st's founder and commanding officer, rebuilt the company after. The Alliance's leader, Mon Mothma, considered the battle at Ferrok Pax very costly and echoed her thoughts in Document #MH2215, titled "Short Notes on the History of the Rebel Alliance Navy," within her personal files.Rogue One: A Star Wars Story novelization In 3 ABY, while the 61st was at the junker world of Heap Nine, Gadren retold his experience of his time at Ferrok Pax to Hazram Namir, the assumed captain of the company at that time.
