Staffers...

(don't panic, theres nothing wrong with my manifest)

However, I wonder if you enlightened souls could clear up a small matter of confusion for us mere mortals.

Where is R'alla located?

Is it Tion?

or

Corporate Sector?

I guess I'm asking for staff clarification on this, just so we can clear this up.


This is all I can dig up on R'alla at the Star Wars encylopedia thing:

R'alla* *
a planet known for its mineral water springs. (HSR)

R'alla Water* *
the sweet, clear water found in the mineral springs of R'alla. It is very expensive, due to its purity and taste, and was often smuggled off-planet for sale at cutthroat prices. After the rise of the New Republic, the water was made more plentiful by an increase in trade with R'alla.


...which doesn't really help , since it doesn't say where it is located, I have checked the planet guide there to, and it just doesn't say.

Now this is only one source, and its unofficial, so it may be a simple matter of the creator not actually knowing.

I've always thought it was located within the CS, (hence the reason I took it), so if no-one knows where exactly where it is, could we perhaps have a final staff ruling on its location?

(btw if any one else knows any useful sources here, links would be helpful).


Thanks.

Well, the book quoted is Han Solo's Revenge, and I have that book, so how about I take a quick looksee?

In the past I believe the owner of a planet with no location stated gets to pick, should you be making a map of sorts.

It's in the Corporate Sector. R'alla is one of the world's Han visited during his stint in the Corporate Sector... the book referenced is part of a pre-ANH trilogy that goes through Han's time in the fleet. But there's an ancient trilogy about Han doing stuff in the Corporate Sector, so the newer books had to allow room... so there's a brief period where Han is said to be in the CS, and clearly the book mentions R'alla as one of his stops.
