The Temple of Sorrow was one of the Temples of Orian constructed around the central Palace of Orian. In 19 ABY it was taken as the home and ruling seat of Clan Naga Sadow and dubbed the new Sadow Palace. Located on the planet Sepros in the Orian system, Sadow Palace was formerly the seat of power of the Sons of Sadow, and was also the seat from which the Heir of Sadow once ruled the clan. The temple was previously guarded by soldiers from the Dlarit Special Operations Group.
For many years the Consul and Proconsul operated from the Palace. Today, the Temple remains unoccupied, following the attempted removal of Collective occupation forces in late 37 ABY.
