Legend

this legendary, lost starship was supposedly seen by spacers in the depths of space. Legends said that it was, at the time of its launch, the largest ship ever built. It was believed to have been filled with the treasue of Xim the Despot, and was on its way to deliver the treasure to Xim's vaults on Dellalt when it was lost. During the early years of the New Order, Lanni Troujow found the ship's log-recorder while working in the mines of Dellalt, but she was killed by J'uoch before she could locate it. Her sister, Hasti, enlisted the help fo an old friend, Alexsandr Badure, and set out to recover the log-recorder. With the help fo Skynx, they hoped to find the Queen of Ranroon, but lacked a way to leave Rudrig to being their search. Badure then talked his old friends, Han Solo and Chewbacca, into transporting them to Dellalt for a portion of the profits. It was Skynx who was able to translate the log-recorder, from which the group learned that the Queen of Ranroon had been en route to Dellalt when Xim was killed during the Third Battle of Vontor. Because the vaults on Dellalt could only be opened by Xim, so the crew of the ship chose to land near the vaults and await his return, unaware that he was already dead. The descendants of these crewmen became known as the Survivors, and they jealously guarded the ship for many millennia. Although the ship had eventually been dismantled, her entire treasure had been transferred to the various vaults that had been built on Dellalt. Unfortunately for Han Solo and his group, they discovered that the "treasure" she held was cheap, abundant materials and weapons that Xim hoped to stockpile and use in his galactic conquest. Skynx, however, discovered a wealth of information tapes and other records that provided invaluable insight into the centuries leading up to the formation of the Old Republic.
