During the age of the Galactic Civil War, there existed a city called Galas within the region of Kallistas. Originally established as a settlement centered around a gem mine, it faced abandonment, leading to its occupation by sand bears, and subsequently, by Rebel operative Pallas Quintell, who utilized it as a clandestine base. It also served as the location where Quintell concealed his Z-95 Headhunter starfighter.
