At the onset of the Outer Rim Sieges, General Kai Hudorra and Commander Keller were sent to the frigid Rim world of Toola to combat recent Separatist incursions into the area. When Keller received Order 66 direct from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine himself, Keller and his troops moved against their Jedi commander. But when Kai Hudorra slipped through his fingers and made for Ithaqua Station, Keller made tracking down the fugitive Jedi his top priority.

To keep Hudorra from slipping away a second time, Keller had his men place Ithaqua Station under martial law, forcing strict curfews on its inhabitants. Despite all this, however, Hudorra managed to elude Keller’s patrols and boarded a transport bound for Coruscant at Toola Spaceport.
