Trasi in Trouble: Terrorism and Hate crimes, but are the two linked?
Not far from the demolished ruins that used to be the Royal Gaza Hotel is a small, quaint cottage of Lannik styling. It was in this home that the vivisected body of an Ithorian was found. Local authorities commented that "other than the body itself, there is literally zero evidence of any kind."

Sources have speculated that the destruction of the Royal Gaza Hotel was in fact a terrorist attack, and that a large number of bodies recovered from the wreckage were traced back to a militia known as the Outer Ordkastian Vanguard. An OOV representative refused to comment, but was later overheard declaring that "the ithorian got what was coming to him."

Destruction on Dantooine: Imperial forces bravely defended themselves against an unprovoked attack by organized terrorists on the planet Dantooine.

The crew of the Mythmaker were enjoying a much deserved shore leave on the surface and had opted to donate their time to help renovate one of the ancient Dantari fortressess. These brave men and women were attacked by cowardly terrorists but no soldier of the Empire is ever unprepared, and they were able to turn the tides and swiftly dispatch the attackers.

Unfortunately for historians and the citizens of Dantooine, the terrorists were able to cause an incredible amount of damage to the Dantari Fortress before they were subdued, and many citizens lost their lives as the fortress fell.

Among the confirmed dead at this time are Bria Tharen of Corellia, Jax Keyn of Chandrilla, and Breha Organa of Alderaan. These unfortunate souls refused to believe the propaganda espoused by the terrorists and were executed by them before Imperial forces could intervene.

The 9th record beaten by a Gungan who registered that morning and is another individual entirely unknown to us. And then both of them vanish without a trace instead of advancing?

As usual, there has been no word or comment of any kind on this subject from anyone within the Automata.
