Trymant system's second sun

The second sun of the Outer Rim's Trymant system was one component of the binary star that the system's planet, Trymant IV, and its moons orbited. When an Emergence of the Great Hyperspace Disaster occurred in the system in 232 BBY, Praknat 3, Trymant IV's closest moon, was struck by a piece of the freighter Legacy Run main hull, changing the gravitational balance of the entire system and tilting Trymant IV closer to the second sun. As a result, all of its aboveground water sources were vaporized, turning it into a desert.
==Description==
The Trymant system, located in the Western Reaches and Outer Rim Territories in square L-20 of the Standard Galactic Grid, was centered around a binary star. As one of the star's two components, the second sun was orbited by the planet Trymant IV and its moons, including Praknat 3, Ost Molkar, Taz Molkar, and Trymant III.
==History==
In the High Republic Era, the Galactic Republic designated a section of the Outer Rim—which included Trymant IV and therefore its suns—as the Galactic Frontier, locations considered far removed enough from the galaxy's center to send explorers to. During an Emergence of the Great Hyperspace Disaster in the Trymant system in 232 BBY,Star Wars: Timelines a fragment of the freighter Legacy Run main hull directly impacted Praknat 3, misaligning the gravitational balance of the entire star system and destroying its moons. Trymant IV was tilted closer to the second sun as a consequence of the collision to Praknat 3, causing an environmental catastrophe as all of the planet's aboveground water sources were vaporized, transforming its landscape to a desert. Records of the Trymant IV disaster were stored by the Jedi Order following the event.
In 231 BBY,Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of The High Republic: Race to Crashpoint Tower to 231 BBY. former Trymant IV resident Zeen Mrala was shocked by the devastation when she returned to the world months after the disaster with Jedi Master Kantam Sy and Jedi Padawan Lula Talisola. Sy learned about the impact on Praknat 3 due to its movement toward the Trymant system's second sun and its effects after checking data onboard their cruiser, the Star Hopper. Afterward, they informed Mrala and Talisola in on what had occurred.
==Behind the scenes==
The sun was mentioned in the 2021 junior novel The High Republic: Race to Crashpoint Tower, written by Daniel José Older as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's Phase I.
