The Hiigarans, after reaching Hiigara, became a well-established empire and controlled much of the Inner Rim. After generations in exile and a perilous journey across known and unknown space, the Hiigarans have reclaimed their home planet. Seeking peace, they found only chaos. The Galactic Council that had once expelled them from their home lay in ruins, a shadow of its former self. Desperate to maintain their power, their struggles had turned inward, each race determined to protect their own interests, rather than those of the Galaxy.
