Description
In 9 ABY Wing became governor of Calodan, the walled principal city of Corvus. Earlier, when Ambassador Nadura visited, he had confessed to her that he was sorry the townspeople had put Morgan Elsbeth in power. The magistrate's rule came to an end when Ahsoka Tano and Din Djarin captured the city and Morgan herself lost a duel to Ahsoka.
Morgan Elsbeth arrived when Corvus was a poor backwater and promised the locals work and prosperity. She turned Calodan into a fortified town, built factories where people toiled around the clock and tried to interest the Empire in her developments. The Imperials, however, wanted only the planet's resources and rejected Morgan's starfighter, and the townspeople decided she had deceived them.
Before long Morgan entered Admiral Thrawn's service, and his Star Destroyers came to hang over Calodan. She hid the Empire's fall from the townspeople while ruling ever more harshly: between 7 and 9 ABY she massacred the New Republic delegation that had come with Ambassador Nadura and had the surrounding forests burned.
