OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
The Kyberite Grove and Agora Valley Temple, located in the Nhai Mountains of Atrisia were rediscovered in 860 ABY following clues from Chitei's ancient records revealing a lightside force nexus tied to the planet's primordial past. While the grove's kyberite crystals and Xiāntáo trees date back millions of years the temple itself is a relatively new construct, built in 880 ABY after the One Sith war to serve as a Jedi training ground and Wukong sanctuary. The Atrisian Commonwealth under Princess Junko's guidance transformed the site into a bastion of lightside teachings, honoring the Wukong's ancient traditions while fostering post war recovery.
The grove's origins trace to 7,000,000 BBY, when Atrisian precursors seeded Wroshyr trees taken from worlds including the central albino tree in the valley's fertile, kyberite-rich soil. Fed by the Hiei Springs a lightside nexus. The grove became a sacred site with Xiāntáo trees producing force imbued plums revered in Atrisian myths as life extending. The valley's isolation protected it from early cataclysms, preserving its ecosystem. By 10,000 BBY, a prosperous village thrived at the grove's base later becoming Suijin Village but it fell into obscurity as Atrisia's surface civilizations evolved.
In 1500 BBY, during the Atrisian Schism the grove served as a refuge for lightside practitioners fleeing political turmoil. The Wukong, a Force-sensitive Atrisian sect, established the Five Tombs to test their members, embedding trials within the mountains to hone insight, skill, courage, flesh, and wisdom. These tombs, carved with kyberite and Atrisian runes, became legendary among the Wukong, though their exact location was lost until Chitei's rediscovery provided coordinates.
The One Sith war (circa 900-890 BBY) devastated Atrisia, prompting the Commonwealth to fortify the grove post-war. The Agora Valley Temple was constructed within the albino Wroshyr tree, its massive trunk and branches providing natural shelter. The temple's design, completed in 890 ABY, integrated advanced defenses—WorldArmor 9 shields, MetaCannons, and autoturrets—while preserving the grove's sanctity. The Arahant Pathway was fortified as the sole entry, with layered walls and chokepoints ensuring security. Suijin Village was revitalized to support temple caretakers and cultivate Xiāntáo plums with Xian a Hiroshi tiger acting as guardian.
The temple's establishment marked a cultural and spiritual renaissance with the Uneti Grove transplanted from Ahch-To to safeguard Jedi heritage. The Echo Chamber and Mumau Root Alcoves were added to enhance training, while the Xiāntáo trees became a guarded resource their plums used to identify darkside spies during royal gatherings. The grove's lightside aura, amplified by the Hiei Springs made it a beacon for Jedi and Wukong drawing trainees from across the Commonwealth.
In 870 ABY, the temple faced its first test when Sith remnants attempted an infiltration repelled by the combined defenses of the Arahant Pathway and Xian. Princess Sitharia of Chitei, a key ally provided Kazue Stone to enhance the temple's fortifications integrating ancient mysticism with advanced technology into its shields and weapons. The grove's rediscovery and development solidified its role as a sacred and strategic site, balancing ancient mysticism with modern resilience and it continues to serve as a training ground and cultural treasure under the Atrisian Commonwealth's protection.
