Darth Wredd exposes a Sith infiltrator on Cadomai Prime

Trade disruption after the destruction of Dac

In 138 ABY, Cadomai Prime was looking for more reliable trade routes. The devastation of the Mon Calamari system had disrupted the surrounding economy and helped attract criminal organizations. Snivvian politicians organized discussions with Gran representatives about a possible new connection. Their negotiations belonged to the ordinary work of rebuilding regional exchange following a destructive war. Yet one delegate concealed his membership in the One Sith, the organization that had survived Darth Krayt's death by attempting to infiltrate governments and corporations.

The hidden Sith inside a diplomatic delegation

Three Snivvian representatives met with two Gran delegates. The concealed Sith had joined the Snivvian delegation while concealing his allegiance from his own colleagues. This strategy contrasted with the visible domination practiced by Krayt's Galactic Empire. Rather than ruling openly from a throne, surviving One Sith operatives sought influence through official positions and ordinary channels of political power. No evidence suggests every Snivvian representative was part of the plot. The comic instead distinguishes an individual infiltrator from the people around him.

Darth Wredd interrupts the negotiations

Darth Wredd attacked the disguised Sith after the diplomatic talks failed. Wredd had begun a personal campaign against the One Sith in response to the destruction of Mala, the killing of his family, and his coercive recruitment into Krayt's organization. He also wanted to replace the One Sith's collective organization with an order based on the older Sith Rule of Two. His opponent condemned the attack as reckless because the One Sith leadership preferred infiltration to public displays of violence.

A duel ends with a body in public view

The Snivvian Sith fought back using the Force and sent Wredd through a window onto an exterior platform. Wredd survived and ultimately killed the infiltrator with his lightsaber. Before the duel ended, Wredd had exposed the tattoos that identified his opponent as Sith. He dropped the corpse where pedestrians could see the markings. The revelation transformed a secret political affiliation into visible public evidence. The dead individual's colleagues were shocked to discover his concealed membership in the organization.

A victory that made the wider crisis visible

The news reached the Galactic Federation Triumvirate, where Jedi Master K'Kruhk confirmed that Darth Wredd had killed an infiltrator. The discovery demonstrated both the danger posed by surviving Sith networks and Wredd's willingness to expose them through public killings. Neither finding made Wredd a legitimate public officer. His campaign depended on unilateral violence, and the new government still had to distinguish genuine threats from other allegations of hidden Sith allegiance.

Anthropological assessment: hidden identities and political suspicion

The incident addresses problems of trust inside political institutions. Diplomatic delegates need to assume that colleagues can represent their communities in good faith, but the infiltration revealed the limits of that assumption. A single concealed Sith could generate fear of many unseen operatives. Such fear can encourage investigations based on signs of group membership rather than proof of individual wrongdoing. The exposed tattoos supplied evidence about the dead infiltrator, not a general rule that every Snivvian, diplomat or unusual-looking individual was dangerous.

Chronology and original artwork

The scene appears in Star Wars: Legacy (2013) #6, the beginning of the Outcasts of the Broken Ring arc by Corinna Bechko and Gabriel Hardman, with artwork by Brian Albert Thies. It is dated to 138 ABY. This page uses the published Legacy volume two #1 cover as contextual series imagery, not as an illustration of the Cadomai duel. The later skirmish on Nalyd and the final Battle of the Floating World belong to Wredd's continuing insurgency and must remain distinct events.
