Obsidian Station was formerly one of the twin platforms in orbit of the planet Tarthos in the Orian system. It was destroyed by the flagship of the True Brotherhood, the Dark Fusion, during the Invasion of Orian in 27 ABY. The wreckage eventually fell out of orbit and crashed into the northern polar region of Tarthos.

Despite the death of the Yuuzhan Vong Supreme Overlord in 29 ABY, the Dlarit Navy continued to suffer attacks from the remaining Vong forces. After the Cathedral wing of Alabrek Castle was inexplicably destroyed during the Battle of Inos late in 29 ABY, Lord Paladin sought to uncover the truth, convinced the perpetrators had not simply been the rogue Imperial forces that had recently been led to Orian. When several reconnaissance teams from the Dlarit Army went missing in the polar regions, and feeling nothing but an emptiness in the Force, Paladin concluded the culprit was either a Force user of such power as to shield himself from the senses of a Grand Master, or worse: Kar Alabrek had been infiltrated by Vong sleeper agents.

On the turn of 30 ABY, the Disciples of Ragnos led an excursion into the polar regions, however their efforts proved in vain as they uncovered little more than discarded conventional weaponry, so dismissed any Vong involvement. With no further leads, and with the call to arms being issued by Darth Sarin for the Clans to ready themselves for the final reclamation of Antei from the hands of the invaders, the Disciples of Ragnos had no choice but to ignore the problem for now and hope for the best.

The truth was that sometime after the True Brotherhood invasion, the wreckage of Platform Obsidian had been taken over by a team of Vong scouts from the remnants of Domain Amnan, survivors from the domain's worldship which had been destroyed over Telos in 28 ABY by Jedi commandos from the Dlarit Special Operations Group. Come 31 ABY, the Vong spies had successfully infiltrated key positions in the Dlarit Defense Force through their inside contact Ran Arnet, and had carefully laying the seeds for their eventual vengeance against the infidel corporation which had shamed their domain. Allied with remnants from Domain Shai which were led by the Slayer and self-proclaimed Warmaster Varesh Shai, the agents operating out of the ruins of Platform Obsidian, led by Bur'lorr Amnan, one of the elite the Hunters, prepared to finally put their plans into action.
