Description: A multilevel shopping mall within view of the senate building and the jedi temple. There are seventeen levels designed in a uniform fashion that allows shops and stalls to be set out throughout the day. THe glasteel railings allowing shoppers to look over towards the ground floor. A large multilevel food court is in the middle filled with different places for quick meals in between going to the different stores. In the years Dark harvest it has been rebuilt with the skeletal remains of the infected rancor on display along with some armored mannequins from the republic soldiers in a monument to that fateful event. Truly the malls only real claim to fame that they are more then happy to remind people of it banners and signs.
History: A common shopping center that was the site of a grisly series of murders at first bringing in the jedi before the infection spread to the bottom of the temple. Where the former grandmaster Teferi was entombed and resurrected as an undead monster leading the charge. Jedi padawan's Aika Kawakami, Wendy La Fey along with a small handful entered the mall to aid the republic soldiers and try to fight back against the infected with something being dropped in the lower levels that was slaughtering the people trying to flee. As the large infected tyrant rancor oozed and slobbered attacking everyone there and it its wake. The dead rising up to add to the horde while the padawans and jedi knight with them were trying to survive until reinforcements arrived to aid in stopping the large beast. A small number of cheap tricks helped as the padawans lured it into chasing them over the edge as they swung away but it wasn't going to die. Eventually though something happened and the beast was stopped when Republic soldiers rolled a tank into the shopping center and started blasting the horde and rancor. After the Republic's deal with Domino went through to get the cure data while she herself kept the way to weaponize the virus that she received from Polis Massa and her encounter with the labs and phobis device. They were able to move in and work to clear it. The seeming defeat of the harvesters over Dagobah making the treat inert as the Mall put the horror of the rancor on display changing the narritive and adding a healthy dose of spin to show that republic soldiers bravely marched and defeated the monster with their honor over dying. A more uplifting version of the horrific events.
