Legend

this statue icon, paired with her consort the Minstrel, was worshipped by the natives of the planet Arcan IV. While Lemo and Sanda searched for it, the Dancing Goddess was in the possession of Lando Calrissian. Lando eventually gave the statue to his old enemy, Barpotomous Drebble, claiming that it was an award for his "heroism". Drebble was considered something of a hero to the Alliance after several key victories over Imperial forces were attributed to Drebble, when in fact it was Lando using Drebble's name as an alias. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, Han Solo discovered that the Dancing Goddess and the Minstrel were two necessary components in the massive machinery that kept the Godoan race vital. They set out to recover the statue, in hopes of reviving the Godoan civilization. Drebble magnanimously turned the statue over to Lando, when he realized that keeping it would mean the death of the Godoan society.
