The Old Sadow Palace was the home and ruling seat of Clan Naga Sadow. Located on the planet Sif in the Phare system, Sadow Palace was where the Consul and his Proconsul rule the clan from. It was former the Governor's mansion of Governor Astronicus Dlarit.
Today the Clan is based in the New Sadow Palace on Sepros.
Origination
During the dark times of rule under the Emperor's Hammer, the planetary governorship of Sif was placed under the rule of an Imperial officer by the name of Tron Dlarit. As planetary governor, Tron was granted a mansion of his own choosing. Upon discovering a monastery reminiscent of Jabba the Hutt's palace, which was also once a monastery, Tron decided to renovate the structure.
It was not long into his tenure as governor that Tron became envious of colleagues in the Dark Brotherhood and gave into his insatiable desires for power. He created House Naga Sadow and based it on Sif, using his governor's mansion as a headquarters. Soon it was no longer known as the Governor's Mansion, but as Sadow Palace.
This structure would serve as home to Clan Naga Sadow until the Exodus. At that time all was thought lost as the clan fled the Phare System.
Exodus
During the Exodus the clan rigged their facilities within the Phare System for destruction. Sadow Palace was not exempt. However, as the clan gathered there and began preparations for their evacuation, Lord Tron informed them that he would stay behind and defend the palace as long as he could to help insure their escape.
Unfortunately, a bloody battle ensued in orbit above Sif as the members of the clan attempted to enter hyperspace. An Interdictor-Cruiser had arrived from the Emperor's Hammer fleet and was preventing them from leaving.
Meditating in the 'Grand Audience Chamber' of Sadow Palace on Sif, Tron ordered his guards who had stayed behind to activate the palace. None had ever seen or heard before the capabilities of Sadow Palace in the events that happened next. The palace began to lift out of the ground and rise into the sky. As earth and rubble fell from below and around the palace, the structure of an ancient Victory-class Star Destroyer became visible.
Unsure if he would ever be forced to display his clan's might in defiance of the Empire, Tron had the VSD built beneath the palace secretly by the native inhabitants of Sif. Tron only revealed this secret to two members of the Brotherhood: Raistlin and Bob-fett. He had begun construction shortly after Zoraan's tirade of rebellion.
Sadow Palace exited the atmosphere and began to engage the Interdictor-Cruiser. The battle was costly, for the battleship portion of the palace was unfinished and not as well armed as a star destroyer. Yet, in the end, the Sadow Palace was victorious as it disabled the gravity well generators. Clan Naga Sadow as well as Sadow Palace entered hyperspace and escaped.
Orian System
The clan arrived in the Orian System and began to settle down as they laid claim to it's planets. Unfortunately, The Victory-class Star Destroyer was ravaged beyond repair and left adrift with Sadow Palace attatched to it's bridge tower. It now lays in orbit around Inos, the eighth planet in the Orian System.
Clan Naga Sadow needed a new home in which to operate out of with the loss of Sadow Palace. Having established Sepros as the planet to house their new headquarters, a scout party was sent out to survey the land searching for any former structures that might be used. Once the throne world of Sith Lord Urias Orian, the clan was hopefull that they would find something.
The principal Temple of Orian was destroyed some years ago by Kiln Tobasa, a follower of the Wanderer, but its outlying keeps remain standing. There are seven towers located evenly in a circular arrangement set out around the former palace. It is in one of the undamaged towers the followers of the Clan have built their new stronghold.
