Perched on top of one of the many summits in the Or’ena mountain range on Kiast, only a few kilometers or so from the new Jedi Praxeum, the Velastari Temple is an old forgotten Force temple surrounded by mountain peaks on all sides.
Geography
Thin wispy clouds and fog tend to linger around it when not otherwise blown away by the cold mountainous air channeled through the mountains. The hot suns of Kiast shine on this particular peak regularly, forming beautiful rainbows as the light reflects off the metallic surface of the Vatali structure. As a result, despite the temple’s heightened elevation, the Velastari Temple and its surroundings atop the peak are warm enough to not only support green vegetation, such as trees and grass but also humanoid visitors, who can get by with a variety of layers depending on the season. In addition, the elevation makes the air breathable, the toxic fumes of the planet only residing in the lower atmospheres. Past the peak itself, the ground drops away quickly, forming dangerous ridges that travelers can use to travel from peak to peak.
Appearence
Occupying a relatively flat portion of land on the summit, the Velastari Temple invokes the Jedi temples of old but with elements of an as-yet-unknown civilization that predates the Vatali. Its egg-shaped exterior, made of a brass-like metal, reflects the sunlight of the binary stars in all directions, leading the way for travelers lost or otherwise. Its interior had been stripped of useful elements long ago, leaving only ancient rock, murals, and texts as yet undeciphered.
