The crystal planet of Mygeeto is a chunk of solid wealth. Its crust, composed almost entirely of crystals, forms a jagged lattice that has lured the greedy since the world’s discovery in 6740 BBY.

Given the bitter and biting winds, it’s easy to mistake Mygeeto’s towers for translucent columns of ice. But these crystalline structures, which come in sizes never seen on other worlds, belong to some of the galaxy’s most valued varieties, including artesian, nova, and rainbow. Smugglers stated the first claim to Mygeeto, ushering in centuries of Hutt control, with periodic possession by the Neimoidians.

The Muuns of the InterGalactic Banking Clan eventually locked up Mygeeto, securing their claim in the Senate and defending the planet with a battleship blockade. The Muuns also tagged the name Mygeeto, a word that means “gem” in their trade tongue. The Muuns built high-tech towers for millions of Muun mineralologists and money counters, forcing the planet’s coiling whirlstorms and timid, furry stones into unseen hollows amid the crystal monoliths.

By the time of the Clone Wars, Mygeeto had become the InterGalactic Banking Clan’s second most valuable possession (after the IBC’s headquarters of Muunilinst). The Republic invaded Mygeeto during the Outer Rim Sieges, blanketing the bleached landscape with ash from torpedo bombardments and fuel fires. Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi led the clone troopers of the Galactic Marines against the Separatist defenses, but lost his life with his men executed Order 66. Simultaneously, the troopers of the 501st Legion secured a Separatist power generator—developed under the code name Hammertong—which would become a component of the first Death Star.

Mygeeto later became a currency reserve for the Empire, save for a brief, doomed seizure by the Rebel Alliance in 3 ABY. Apart from the military forces needed to keep it safe, Mygeeto remained uncolonized.
