Silais
this Twi'lek was a representative of the Old Republic, and was dispatched to assist in bringing the planet Cerea in the Republic. He was not expecting the elders of the planet to resist becoming a member of the Republic. Silais spoke of the benefits the Republic could bring to what he considered a backwater world, but Ki-Adi-Mundi the elders remained stoic in their position. Despite their rebuffs of his efforts, Silais provided the technology which exonerated Ki of the murder of a young man and implicated Maj-Odo-Nomor. After the discovery of the Trade Federation's role in the import of technology to Cerea, Silais was recalled to Coruscant without warning.
