With information provided by Tig Peramis, a Yevethan force, which included the former Imperial Interdictor cruiser Imperator, ambushed Tampion 91 light-years outside of the Koornacht Cluster, while en route to the rendezvous. When the shuttle was boarded, Sreas attempted to fight off the Yevethan troops, but only accidentally shot Solo in the right arm before taking a fatal blaster shot to the chest.
His corpse was brought into the holding cell alongside Solo and Lieutenant Barth, where Barth told Solo of Sreas's children and wife, and the holo of her that he always carried. Barth also stated that Sreas was a collector of glass animals.
