Description:
- When the Sith took over the grounds of the old temple, they slowly began to remove any and all vestiges of the Jedi Order. A transparisteel pyramid was built atop the fragmented Sacred Spire. Labyrinthine and dark, the winding corridors of the temple glowed with a deep red at the base of each hall. Ancient Sith statues which included likenesses of Locphet, Mindran, Sissiri, Felkor, Nihilus, Naga Sadow, and many others loomed tall, glaring down at those who entered. At the end of this great hall laid a laboratory constructed to resemble the one lost on Exegol. It is here that genetic experimentation, cloning, Sith Alchemy, and dark science was performed, numerous strand-casts and abominations were birthed in the vats contained in this sinister laboratory. Numerous meditation chambers and interrogation rooms line the halls of the dreaded complex, harkening back to a time when the New Sith Order inflicted horrors upon the galaxy.

    - Ambush of Cato Neimodia
    - Battle of Empress Teta
    - Ritual of Tython, Death of Solipsis
  - Statues added by the Church of the Dark Side:
Great Sith Forge
Embrace of Pain Chamber
- Built to resemble the chamber from the One Sith Temple on Coruscant, installed at the behest of the resurrected Dark Lord Darth Solipsis .
Chamber of Sacrifice
- A sacrificial chamber where Jedi were slain upon the sacred altar. It was long abandoned until the New Sith Order's restoration of the complex. A new altar brought in from one of the many worlds in the Unknown Regions where an Altar to the Dark Side was discovered and brought to Tython for renewed use.
  - The Eternal Pyre
    - Near the Altar of the Dark Side, a great pyre burns from the pit crafted to hold materials from the original Eternal Pyre on Korriban. Some of the spoils of victory from the Battle of Korriban. The Pyre survived the destruction of Exegol by order of Darth Ptolemis , and was subsequently relocated to the Sith enclave of Asog shortly before the Brotherhood of the Maw met it's end on Exegol.
Hall of the Terracotta
- Originally constructed in the Sith Citadel on Exegol to house survivors of the shattered Old Sith Order after the Sith Schism, those misfortunate individuals who could not flee to the safety of Wild Space were subjected to the Sith stone ritual by members of the New Sith Order. The victims survive in perpetual agony forever sealed within a stone prison and put on display like 'trophies'. Many of these statues were moved before the death of Darth Solipsis to the hidden world of Asog, surviving the destruction of Exegol and eventually outfitted within a replica chamber inside of Tython's newly christened Temple of the Sith.
  - The Black Obelisk
    - At the tail end of the Hall of the Terracotta lies a tall, dark obelisk crafted from obsidian carried from the ruins of Fortress Vader. It is a monument celebrating the Great Sith Gathering and the start of the Sith Purge by the New Sith Order and the Warlords of the Sith whom later joined in with the once fledgling order.
Citadel Laboratory
Numerous Qabbrats
Proving Grounds
- An open area extended from the Great Hall that was ruined in the Final Battle of Exegol. The area was cleared out and strengthened by supports lining it's perimeter. An ode to the Lord of Strength, Delsin Shaw , a stone statue was erected to watch over those who fought to prove themselves worthy of attaining a place within the New Sith Order.
The Inner Sanctum
- Shards of the Great Crystal of Aantonaii
  - Retrieved from the Sith Shrine in the Depths underneath the New Jedi Temple during the Great Battle of Coruscant by Darth Mensis and brought to Exegol. Only shards remain of the lost great crystal that was purged in the destruction of the MAW's throneworld.

Maximum
- The Sith Citadel hosts the New Sith Order, the Throne of the Sith, and the Church of the Dark Side's highest adherents. Sith cultists roam the halls of the vast citadel along with various experiments, sentries, and not to forget the Sith themselves. This place is the beating heart of darkness, the bastion of the Sith, to enter here is to invite disaster.

Akar Tsis, the Temple of the Sith, was formed on the ruins of what remained from the Temple of Balance. Akar Kesh was once one of nine temples of the Je'daii Order on the verdant world of Tython. Erected atop a towering pillar-like rock formation, the temple at Akar Kesh served as the Order's academy for instilling the ideals of balance in the Force among its students.

The temple stood for thousands of years before ultimately it was destroyed in the cataclysmic Battle of Tython 875 ABY. Shattered during a confrontation between

Rurik Fel ,

Ryv ,

Jem Fossk ,

Dagon Kaze , and the supposed Sith'ari

Darth Solipsis in the midst of a reality altering ritual that threatened the galaxy at large. The battle ended with the death of Darth Solipsis and many of the most powerful members of New Sith Order, forcing the Brotherhood of the Maw from the Deep Core. The towering spire that carried it's ruins was reduced to a fraction of its once incredible size, with remnants of the temple scattered across the plains below.

Decades later in the year 900 ABY, a second conflict would erupt on the surface of Tython led by the resurrected

Darth Solipsis and his Dark Empire. Claiming the wreckage of Akar Kesh in the aftermath of their Operation Shadow Hand, the Church of the Dark Side set to work on the construction of a new temple to replace the lost Sith Citadel on Exegol. The decision had fallen to the New Sith Order, whom chose the holy site of Akar Kesh in mockery of both the Jedi Order and their shared predecessors.
