Lilla Syrin
A great leap forward often requires first taking t
Grievous: “Kenobi. Don't tell me, let me guess: this is the part where you give me the chance to surrender.”
Obi-Wan: “It can be. Or, if you like, it can be the part where I dismantle your exoskeleton and ship you back to Coruscant in a cargo hopper.”
― Grievous and Obi-Wan Kenobi, facing off on Utapau
Lehon, also referred to as Rakata, Rakata Prime, and the Unknown World, was the homeworld of the Rakata species and the secret capital of their Infinite Empire. It was also known as a technological graveyard.
On the face of it, it was a tropical world that inhabited a remote and relatively unknown corner of the galaxy known as the Tempered Wastes, a largely void area of space. Its surface was largely covered by oceans which were dotted by numerous clusters of islands and archipelagos. It was the only habitable planet in the Lehon system, but it shared an orbit around its primary star with the Star Forge, an ancient Rakatan space station and factory which drew its fuel directly from the system's primary star. The planet itself was orbited by two small moons, but one of them was close enough to be visible from the surface during daylight, covering a significant portion of the sky.
Which was all Lilla could glean from the mission briefing.
She was here because there had been reports that someone was accessing the now derelict Temple of the Ancients. Also called the Temple of the Elders, was a temple on Lehon that was once said to hold the secrets of the Star Forge. All known intelligence said there was nothing left there to see — but every now and then, an expedition decided they knew better and typically a Jedi was dispatched to make sure this was just another false alarm.
The temple's doors were originally blocked by a mysterious force field that only Rakata could bring down by performing a special ritual or by using an ancient tome, and even then, the force field would not stay down for long. Darth Bane visited the site and was confronted by the Sith Lord Kas’im. Bane and Kas’im engaged in a protracted duel that eventually moved to the steps of the Temple. Bane was then able to kill Kas’im by striking him with a powerful wave of Force energy that brought down the Temple entrance way around him.
So Lilla landed close to the ruins of the temple and quickly exited her ship. A short search should be enough to be sure there was no risk of anyone accessing the Star Forge secrets, and she could be on her way.
