Rel's parents were diamond and mineral traders for Arkania. When she was five years old her parents took her on a trading mission bringing minerals to Nar Shaddaa. Upon arrival, they asked someone at the landing dock for directions to meet the client. The individual saw them, and the child they brought with them and warned them "This isn't the place for the likes of you, I recommend you take your stuff and get outta here. That is if you value your lives." However, being arrogant like most Arkanians were they insisted on the information and proceeded to their destination.

As they moved through the dense streets they began to notice a lot of eyes on them, and their little girl. When they arrived at the shop Rel's mother knelt down before they entered and told her to go hide in the nearby alley until they came out, which she did. After a short amount of time, she heard a scream followed by what sounded like a struggle. It didn't last long and as she knelt down hiding in a broken crate the next thing she heard was two thuds nearby.

Too scared to move she waited for what felt like forever but could have been just a minute before peeking out of the crate. What she saw was the lifeless corpses of her parents, left in the alley to rot. She crawled out of the crate to her parents, crying begging them to wake up to no avail. As she sat there clinging to her parent's dead bodies crying she her footsteps approaching. She quickly as she could crawl back into the crate, hoping whoever it was hadn't seen her yet. As a soft voice said from right outside the crate "It's alright little one, I won't hurt you." Something about this person's voice made Rel feel safe like she could trust this person.

She slowly crawled out from the crate she saw a figure hidden under a robe. Sniffling Rel said, "Who are you?" "I am a Jedi" replied the hooded figure. "What is a Jedi?" Rel asked. "A Jedi is someone who protects others and peace in the galaxy. Are these your parents here?" they replied. All she could do was nod her head. Sensing a strong connection to the force within the young girl the Jedi said, "Come with me, I'll bring you somewhere safe."

Rel was brought to the Jedi Temple to became a Youngling within the Jedi order and began her training to be a Jedi. After years of training, she was chosen by a master. Before she was to leave the temple she approached the Jedi who has rescued her that day and spoke to them about what happened that day, hoping to ease the turmoil in her heart over the incident. "What happened that day, why did those people murder my parents?" Rel asked calmly. "Well youngling, to answer that question I must first make you aware of your people, the Arkanians. Your race is incredibly intelligent, just as you are, but this has led them to become arrogant, thinking themselves better than other races. This caused them to underestimate the danger of Nar Shaddaa. Those people who killed them, most likely simply wanted to get out of paying for the minerals your parents were selling them. I'm not saying it was their own fault they died, but their arrogant nature did play a part." they explained. "Thank you, I understand better now." Rel said as she bowed and walked away.

Rel took two things from that conversation. Firstly, she never wanted to let arrogance blind her judgment. Secondly, she never wanted to see people die unable to protect them again.
