History

In the years leading up to 14,000 BBY, a grand temple was built on Krayiss II designed to give magicians pure of Sith blood a place to meditate and record their understandings. Over the following 10,000 years the temple became a place spoken of in hushed whispers, a seat of learning for those strongest in the ways of the dark side, where dark experiments could be conducted without restraint. The library associated with the temple grew as time passed, and given the secrets it held, unparalleled elsewhere, the location soon became a place of pilgrimage for those wishing to explore the limits of the dark side.

Perhaps it was experiment gone wrong, perhaps two great Sith Lords fought over control of the library, the exact events are lost in time, but by the year 4,000 BBY the temple and it's library stood empty, swallowed up by the surface of the planet itself, the great obelisk which once towered above the building proper now the only remnant visible from the surface.

While the events which caused the great structure to sink below the planet's surface were lost, one small piece of information filtered through the years. The great temple and the library it housed could be raised once more by one strong enough in the Force, should they perform the correct rituals and rites at the foot of the obelisk.

Both Jedi and Sith have attempted such rituals, meditating, chanting and incanting rites of great power at the obelisk in the hope of being the one great enough to access the treasures withing. Each and every attempt has ended in frustration and failure as the temple shudders, yet holds firm. Those few who have survived the experience report that the Sith spirits guarding the temple are the ones to judge the success of the rites performed, and that the spirit of Jedi Master Jey Sunrider is amongst the three Jedi Masters who guard the temple.

In 34 ABY a One Sith expedition numbering several dozen established a base on Krayiss II. When attempts to access the temple via the obelisk failed, the human Sith Lord leading the expedition, and his Nagai acolyte expanded their base camp to incorporate a small starport to enable longer-term activities on the planet. In the following two years, the Sith Lord and his aspirants explored the desolate planet's surface, locating several artifacts and ancient Sith scrolls hidden within the ruins of ancient settlements. The One Sith hoped that with the information contained within the relics, access to the temple should be possible within the space of a few months.
