Summary

	This event took place during the Taris Resettlement Initiative on the planet Taris. A joint team of the Taris Expeditionary Force and the Jedi Order set out on a research expedition into the Reclamation Zone around the Olaris spaceport. The expedition were taking pollution readings in the ruins on the old Municipal Utility District when they found the medical holocrons. Jedi Master Tykan decided to get them back to the base right away for a study, and taking a small group of researchers with him, set off on a journey back. Shortly after they left, the expedition were ambushed by Death's Claw pirates. The pirates killed everyone, although Sergeant Valoy, one of the guardsmen, managed to warn Captain Nelex about the attack before he was killed. One of the expedition's survey droids, T8-C3, also escaped destruction, but suffered severe power loss and was unable to move. On their way to the base, Tykan, who was under the control of the Dark Plague, lured the group into a trapfall and set fire to the pollution in the swamp, claiming that he was punishing them for allowing Taris to be destroyed centuries ago. Tykan left, leaving the expedition to die. Doctor Edaine tried to save two assistants - Frej and Defte - who were trapped under a collapsed beam, but was unsuccessful. When Barsen'thor and Fess - who were after Master Tykan, found them, they rescued everyone they could, but the holocrons were lost in the fire. Edaine was furious that the Jedi chose to save a few lives instead of preserving valuable technology that could have saved millions. Meanwhile, Tykan reached the Junction, an old purification facility retrofitted by the Republic to process poisonous gases, and began preparing for the next attack.
