↑ The High Republic: Defy the Storm—which the events of take place in 228 BBY per the reasoning here—states that Eriadu is not located within the Occlusion Zone. As The High Republic Adventures: Crash and Burn depicts Eriadu being brought into the Occlusion Zone, its events must take place after Defy the Storm. Crash and Burn also depicts the death of Arathab Fal, which The High Republic: Temptation of the Force later references. The events of Temptation of the Force—which occur at least one year and a few months after the destruction of Starlight Beacon—also take place in 228 BBY per the reasoning here. Therefore, the events of Crash and Burn must occur in the same year.
