Carosi Eight[2] was a location in the Outer Rim Territories. It was represented at a celebration for the worlds of the Outer Rim on the planet Serenno[1] in 90 BBY.[3] While exploring the celebration, Jedi Initiate Dooku and his sister—Lady Jenza of House Serenno—ate lalaren blooms, a foodstuff from Carosi Eight.[1]
Dooku later recounted the incident in a holo-letter to Jenza.[1] Around 23 BBY,[4] Dooku displayed a holographic data disk that detailed the events around meeting his sister, including their consumption of lalaren blooms from Carosi Eight, to his recently-recruited Sith assassin, Asajj Ventress. The pair listened to the recording, after which Dooku gave Ventress several more disks for her investigation into Jenza's location.[1]
