Operation Gungnir

After five years of continuos warfare, Orono decided to finish the Cartel once and for all. Sending out several evacuation ships, the people of Makeb were helped to safety, and no one was left behind. Then his new flagship the Grey Phoenix II was revealed. An onyx-black warship armed with thousands of weapons  and the largest version of the Heart of the Void ever conceived. Vengeful fire in his eyes, Orono ordered it to attack. Amidst the hails of artillery and laser blasts, some of the Hutt lords tried to beg for mercy. However Orono coldly denied them saying they were, "no longer deserving of his generosity". The bombardment ended only after the Heart of the Void fired, turning whatever remained to ash. To assuage the outrage of some Makebians over their home being ravaged, Orono told them on Dras Edoc'sil,

"Friends, veterans, countrymen, do not fear for your world. I promise here and now that I will devote all of my personal resources to you. Makeb will not only be whole again, in fact even better and more secure than ever before."

And in two year's time, that promise was fulfilled...
One of the many Athelas- class transports evacuating the people of Makeb.

The Grey Phoenix II, Orono's new flagship.
