Rysko Barnt, a regular customer at the Cantina Oceana situated on the moon of Dorumaa, found himself employed by Thon Larimhor for the purpose of impersonating Kalani's former romantic partner. In an encounter where he defeated her while Echari Di'San was present, Di'San retaliated by launching an assault, which resulted in injuries to Barnt. Those who witnessed the event at the cantina came to the conclusion that Di'San had killed Barnt, prompting an inquiry by the Cularin Office of Public Safety. The truth, however, surfaced that Larimhor was the one who actually murdered Barnt.
