Slave

Ventress was born on Dathomir to the Nightsisters that called the world home (or perhaps, as we now know more accurately after Ahsoka, a second home within Star Wars’ primary galaxy), but she was not raised among them. While still a child, Ventress was part of a deal between the Nightsister matriarch Mother Talzin and a crime lord named Hal’Sted—exchanging Asajj into a life of slavery for peace between the Nightsisters and Hal’Sted’s forces. Brought to Rattatak, Ventress was torn away from the home she never knew—and given a gilded cage in Hal’Sted’s protection from the world’s tumultuous warring factions.
