Unidentified dark star

A dark star located at the Slice's eastern edge had a massive gravitational shear and glowed in multiple colors. The Graceful Promising, a wrecked Vontorian treasure ship used as a treasure cache by the famed pirate queen Maz Kanata, was locked in close orbit around the star by 10 BBY.According to Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, Maz Kanata included in the Smuggler's Guide a map of the galaxy noting the location of the dark star at some point before Lando Calrissian lost ownership of the Millennium Falcon, an event that Star Wars: Timelines dates to 10 BBY. Kanata mapped the starship's location in her book, the Smuggler's Guide.
Between 0 ABY and 3 ABY,Per Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, Han Solo's entries in the Smuggler's Guide related to the Graceful Promising were made while he was affiliated with the Rebel Alliance and in debt to Jabba Desilijic Tiure. According to Star Wars: Timelines, Solo's affiliation with the Alliance began in 0 ABY and his debt to Jabba culminated with him falling into the crime lord's custody in 3 ABY. the smuggler Han Solo, captain of the light freighter Millennium Falcon, acquired the Smuggler's Guide and conducted a mission to acquire the treasures above the dark star with his partner Chewbacca and a small unit of Alliance Pathfinders led by Lieutenant Caluan Ematt. Solo wrote in the book that the gravity of the dark star made the mission very risky, adding an image depicting the Graceful Promising above the star and bragging that he had the experience for it after flying the Kessel Run on the Falcon in under twelve parsecs. Solo's mission was ultimately successful.
