Chapter 12 of Star Wars: Dark Force Rising (1992) (EU: 9 ABY) by Timothy Zahn.
The Story So Far
Leia Organa Solo has been targeted by the Empire for abduction. She and Chewbacca thwart an abduction attempt on Kashyyyk, capturing Noghri operative Khabarakh. In the subsequent interrogation, Khabarakh tells of how Lord Vader brought hope to the Noghri people, whose world became collateral damage after a ferocious space battle. Leaning on that reverence, Leia negotiates an embassy to Honoghr. However, when they arrive, they find Imperial presence coercing the importance of their mission to capture Leia.
They touchdown in Clan Kihm'bar, but the irregularity draws Imperial interest. Quick thinking and honour-bound by Khabarakh’s oath of protection, Leia and Chewbacca are hidden away in the village as Thrawn inspects the late-returning operative.
Chapter 12
Leia wakes up on Honoghr. Directed to the Dukha by some Noghri children. She learns from clan Kihm’bar’s Maitrakh more of the Noghri, their history, and their indentured servitude with the Empire.
The Maitrakh implores Leia to leave until such time that the Noghri would not be trading one over-clan for another. Leia agrees, but as she does, they are alerted to an approaching Imperial ship.
