I emailed Drew Karpyshyn, a writer for KOTOR, and asked him about this. This was his response: Hi, Thanks for the email; it’s always good to hear from someone who enjoys my work! And you’re right - Canderous’s story was a nod to the Yuuzhan Vong. We couldn’t have them in the game, so we put this Easter egg in instead. Drew

I love how the Yuuzhan Vong are depicted as mysterious creatures of horror. Like how we depict UFOS or something we don’t know in the sky

I wonder if the yuuzhan vong were planning on invading during the old republic era but canderous and his mandalorians stopped them.Or they were simply scouting the galaxy before being discovered by canderous and his men.Perhaps the vong retreated because they didn't want to compromise their plans for their eventual invasion and/or fail to report to their superiors.

The second option is the most reasonable. Fighting Canderous Ordo and his men would had ruined forever years of undercover work at the edge of the galaxy, making the Republic conscious of an unknown species scouting the asteroid fields of the Crispin System. The yuuzhan vong are warring zealots, that is for sure, but they are not stupid.

@@EternalEmperorofZakuul Either way it was just for an Easter egg. Sad that Yuuzhan in its entirety got cancelled from Star wars completely now.

Yeah I've been looking for video clip of this as i recently saw on Yuuzhan Vong Wookipedia page that they had a indirect mention in this game👍

If the YV fled their galaxy to the Star Wars galaxy, then one Worldship arriving ahead of the others isn't so impossible. Consider; going even a tiny bit faster meant that it would arrive millennia beforehand, and it would be all by itself. Sending out scouts to find habitable worlds they could hunker down on would be the smartest thing to do, and it seems as if this scoutship had all but given up and gone to sleep until the Mandalorians woke it up. It probably did emerge from hyperspace, but it's unlikely the YV aboard the worldship ever got to a world, and the lucky few just blended in without truly being noticed. Several times in the New Jedi Order books the worldships were described as being in, at best, passable shape only, and if this one arrived first with no support, it's not hard to imagine that this batch of YV simply didn't make it.
