Iren, identified as male, journeyed to the planet of Batuu in the High Republic Era. He received an invitation to enter the dwelling of Elise, a Batuuan woman. This invitation incited extreme anger in her spouse, Menir, who then assaulted Iren. Leaving the residence, Iren inadvertently abandoned a small sack holding a trio of seeds. Menir proceeded to cast the seeds away from his home, where they subsequently germinated and transformed into monstrous beings known as Drengir. Following the Drengir's destruction of Menir's house and the death of Elise, Iren reappeared at the devastated site. There, he faced Menir and declared that Menir's own resentment was the origin of the tragedy.
