The Battle of Florrum (also known as Between Light and Dark) was a conflict between Clan Plagueis and the allied forces of Clan Odan-Urr and various undesirables in 34 ABY.

Prelude

Darth Pravus, the reigning Grand Master of the Brotherhood, had set forth plans to cleanse it's ranks of those deemed 'undesirable'. These were typically aliens that had a distant or almost nonexistent resemblance to more common and traditional humanoids. Arkanian, Verpine, and many more were under threat from the cold and ruthless Grand Master, but none would go down without a fight.

To undertake this monumental task, the Dark Lord turned to Clan Plagueis. Having rebuilt their fleet and grown the numbers of their army, the Ascendant Clan was also known to want to prove their worth to the upper echelons of the Brotherhood leadership. And for the Clan itself, hunting and capturing undesirables was an efficient way of bolstering their enslaved population for other needs.

The first assault was on the out-lying world of Athiss, located in the Stygian Caldera. The world had been conquered a few years prior, and since then little resources or manpower had been diverted to the planet. A scattering of of outposts and makeshift colonies dotted the surface, and considering the few resources available to its inhabitants, posed little threat militarily.

Under the united command of Teylas Ramar, the Ascendant Clan struck Athiss in a swift and brutal fashion. Selika Roh, the Proconsul, led the forces of Clan Plagueis to the surface to kill or capture any who were still alive following an effective orbital bombardment.

An Arkanian maintenance officer by the name of Thrax Kolzaar worked at one of the major installations on the surface. While the majority of the inhabitants and their enemies were focused on dealing with the aftermath of an orbital bombardment, Thrax made his way to a nearby communications terminal. He managed to successfully transmit a message to Clan Odan-Urr, asking for aid and warning them of the Grand Master's plans. The data was sent to the Sentinel Network, run by the hidden Jedi, and the message was quickly received. Thrax, however, was captured by Selika Roh, never to be seen again.
