Marda and Yana Ro's grandparents

At least two Evereni individuals lived during the High Republic Era and were part of the Ro family. By around 397 BBY, they had become the grandparents of two Evereni girls, Yana and Marda Ro. While the family lived on the planet Genetia, they were attacked by townspeople and the grandparents were killed, though Yana and Marda were able to escape along with their mothers. In 382 BBY, Yana recalled the deaths of her grandparents when she thought about how she had joined the Path of the Open Hand cult.
==Biography==
At least two Evereni individuals were members of the Ro family during the High Republic Era. At some point, they had at least two children. Around 402 BBY,Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia dates the events of The High Republic: Path of Deceit to 382 BBY. As Path of Deceit establishes that Yana Ro is twenty years old during its events, she must have been born around 402 BBY. one of their children became the parent of an Evereni girl named Yana Ro, and another of their children became the parent of an Evereni girl named Marda Ro around 397 BBY.
Between around 397 BBY and 387 BBY, when the girls were a very young ageStar Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia and the family lived on the Expansion RegionStar Wars Galaxy Map planetThe High Republic: Out of the Shadows Genetia, the family was attacked by townspeople who believed them to be the cause of failing crops. The attack resulted in the deaths of the cousins' grandparents, as well as Yana's sire. The girls, however, were able to escape Genetia because of how viciously Marda's sire had fought to ensure they could escape, and because the two's mothers killed a family of Theelins and took their ship.
After the attack, Marda and Yana made their way to the Outer Rim planet Dalna as refugeesThe High Republic: Path of Vengeance and became members of the Path of the Open Hand cult. Yana remembered the events of their last night on Genetia, though she knew the things Marda remembered were scattered and nonsensical. In 382 BBY, when considering the circumstances of how the members of the Path's Children—a group who obtained Force artifacts for the Path's leader Elecia Zeveron—had come to the Path, Yana mentally recalled the attack on her family and the deaths of hers and Marda's grandparents.
