- "The Separatists have launched attacks against the Talz natives as retribution for destroying their outpost. In response, the Republic has decided to intervene to help the Talz push the Droid Army of Orto Plutonia. Though the harsh weather proved to be problematic, we were nevertheless able to secure a victory. And, as stated in the agreement, all Republic forces will be pulled out the moment the last of the Separatist presence is eliminated."
—Kyle Redbreak's report:
AT-RT Walkers of Cannon Company fend off the enemy infantry advance.
In 22 BBY, the Republic and Talz initiated a defense on the icy world of Orto Plutonia. The Separatists, seeking revenge on the Talz for destroying their outpost, attacked several tribes before the Republic sent a task force to counter the threat. Sending Jedi Generals Kyle Redbreak, Jennifer SpaceDreamer, Gram Alnin and Anakin Skywalker, including Jedi Commander Joch Farlight, the battle included air-to-air combat and ground attack. Whilst Alnin, Farlight and Skywalker handled the air, Redbreak and SpaceDreamer were tasked with assisting the Talz of pushing the Separatist occupation on the ground. General Grievous, who led the attack, engaged both Jedi in a duel, once again retreating after being bested by Redbreak and SpaceDreamer. With Grievous out of action, the armies were in disarray, and the Republic rounded up another victory. As part of their agreement, the Republic began withdrawing all units from Orto Plutonia.
