H scale at the time, if not for two things: our victory at Ebaq Nine

andVergere."

"A Fosh Jedi of the Old Republic," Leia explained for the benefit f Page, Meloque, and some of the others. "Vergere lived as a spy ne the Yuuzhan Vong for fifty years. She helped rescue our son Jacen at Myrkr, and died at Ebaq."

"A month or so before Ebaq," Kyp added, "Vergere stole the mole batch of Alpha Red and destroyed it, or somehow transformed . jnto something harmless." He glanced at Leia, and she nodded for him to continue. "Alliance command ruled it an act of treason, but not much has been said about Alpha Red since then, in part because it's been rumored that Jacen had something to do with Vergere's escaping the military cordon set up at Kashyyyk. I thought the project had been scuttled. Obviously I've been kept out of the loop."

"This stuff doesn't only kill individual Yuuzhan Vong," Han said, looking around the chamber.

Kyp nodded. "You're right about that. It targets some genetic or cellular component that the Yuuzhan Vong share with all their biots— from the smallest right up to the largest. Even their war vessels." "The crashed coralskipper," Leia said. Han regarded Page with suspicion.

The captain raised his hands in innocence. "Han, I swear, this is the first I've heard of Alpha Red."

Han looked at tall Meloque, who shook her head. "If I knew about Alpha Red, I'm certain I would have done what the Jedi did."

All heads turned to Wraw, whose head fur stirred. Then the Bothan Intelligence agent shrugged nonchalantly.

"Alliance command wanted field assurance that Alpha Red would work outside a laboratory setting. It's been used effectively on cap-ves, but we couldn't be sure what would happen in an uncontrolled em'ironment. When Intelligence learned that Caluula had been tarred by the Vong for occupation, it was chosen to be planet zero— >teP one in winning the war."

Meloque loosed a mournful sign. "Extermination. More of the B°than ar'krai."
