After they paid the Mirialan for the information, Chewbacca and C-3PO encountered the bounty hunters Dengar and Beilert Valance, who were chasing the arms dealer Devono Vix. Chewbacca, who remembered the two hunters from prior encounters, attacked both before Valance revealed the misunderstanding behind his last encounter with the Wookiee. The cyborg then told Chewbacca that he was also trying to help recover Solo from Fett. Chewbacca informed Valance that if he cared about Solo, he would trust the Wookiee to save him, and that he was to stay out of Chewbacca's way until he was asked to help. With this, the two rebels left Valance and went to meet with Sagwa.
