- "We were a peaceful people before the Separatists drove us from our homes. And stole our moon."
"And which moon was that?"
- ―An Angel refugee and Obi-Wan Kenobi
Millius Prime was one of the thousand moons that orbited the planet Iego and the homeworld of the Angels. During the Clone Wars, the moon was conquered by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which installed the primary node of a LaserWeb Defense Station on its surface. The installation was later destroyed by Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker of the Galactic Republic.
Millius Prime was one of the thousand moons that orbited Iego, a mysterious planet located on the fringes of the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories, in grid square T-7 on the Standard Galactic Grid. Its surface was a mottled purple when viewed from space, pockmarked by large craters.
By the year 21 BBY, the Confederacy of Independent Systems conquered Millius Prime and driven the indigenous Angels from their homes. The Confederacy then embedded the primary node of a LaserWeb Defense Station in the moon's surface to prevent anyone from leaving Iego, though it was later destroyed by Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker of the Galactic Republic, liberating the moon.
- "They're the most beautiful creatures in the universe. They live on the moons of Iego, I think."
- ―Anakin Skywalker, on the Angels
Behind the scenesEdit
