Legend

this man was Denel Moonrunner's father, and was the head of the Fair Value Control Department of Rhamalai's Planetary Trade Directorate at the time of the Battle of Yavin. However, Moonrunner was not his true name. In reality, he was Corvus Langlier. Lorn was a fugitive from Imperial justice, who had his appearance altered and a false identity developed so that he could hide. He and his wife, Artis, settled on the planet Rhamalai and lived in peace with the Cherishites there, believing that the planet was far enough removed from the rest of the galaxy so as to avoid imperial notice. They hid their ship, the Refugee, in a remote valley, hoping against hope that they would never have to use it again. When the Empire finally subjugated Rhamalai, Lorn and Artis relied on their facial surgeries to keep them from being captured. However, their son, Denel, was conscripted into the Imperial armed forces before they could act. After Denel was rescued by Nadra Enasteri, the Moonrunners fled to the Refugee and managed to escape the planet.
