if you would join us hey guys how are you doing today
so uncor sent five millennia before the rise of the Galactic Empire thus it
constructed an enormous shrine on top of a concentration of the force known as a
nexus or virgins as qui-gon would call it this was steeped in the light side
they hoped to corrupt it with the dark side and were eventually successful in
their endeavors the colossal structure was clad in black and stood against the
course in sky as a symbol of the sith dominance until the end of a great war
between the Sith and the Jedi following the hundred year darkness the light side
champions had defeated the Sith order and after they returned to Coruscant
they tore the set shrine down and erected the Jedi Temple over the Sith
Rhine foundations they did this as their own symbolic act to attempt to bury the
Sith legacy the placement of the shrine was not only an affront to the Jedi but
a very unusual occurrence in itself as such Darkseid shrines were usually only
found on worlds that had historically been considered Sith the Jedi hoped to
return the vergence in the force to the light and believed the presence of so
many light sided ups and knights within the temple would neutralize and cap the
dark power inherent in the shrine it can be argued that a sign from the Sith the
Jedi's greatest enemy has always been their own arrogance for they had
purposely built their temple on top what had become a dark side Nexus as the
millennia counted on these darkside energies seeped upwards and outwards
weakening the light side and the Jedi's precognitive abilities leaving them
vulnerable to thus its eventual revenge even their most powerful masters
remained ignorant of this occurrence and believed the shrines powers had been
completely contained the Sith Lords of dark Bane's order of two became aware of
the shrines existence about a thousand years before the destruction of the Jedi
and the rise of Darth Vader and the Empire they kept its existence a very
closely guarded secret in his public persona as the recently self coronated
Emperor Palpatine following his devastating victory and purge of the
i order and reformation of the galactic republic into the empire the Dark Lord
of the Sith Darth Sidious converted the Jedi Temple into his new imperial palace
then the Galactic tyrant decided to finally excavate the shrine a project he
left entirely under the supervision of his personal droid 11 Ford II who the
Dark Lord had inherited from his own master Darth Plagueis after killing him
11:4 D carried out the excavation using only other droids as the shrines
existence had to remain a secret so aside from the droids Sidious was the
only being in the galaxy who possessed any knowledge of it as a 14 BBY not even
seize his apprentice and second-in-command Darth Vader knew of
the shrines existence utilizing the shrine to meditate on the nature of the
dark side of the force and to use as his own personal sanctum the Emperor
eventually hoped to gain the ability to reshape reality according to his own
vision and planned on enlisting Vader who himself liked the shrine was a
vergence in the force with the help of his powerful apprentice within the
shrine both Sith Lords together could probe the dark side for its most
powerful secrets so that Sidious could achieve the power that he craved now how
it's gonna be in the new Star Wars Canon will further develop the story of the
shrine and we're gonna have to wait and see
however it was introduced in the James Lucena novel Tarkin and George Lucas and
the Clone Wars showrunner Dave Filoni had planned to explore the idea further
of the Jedi Temple being built over a Sith one in a several Episode story arc
of the show that was never produced because of its cancellation but
supposedly it would have involved ahsoka tano returning and several other Jedi
using drilling machines under the temple and discovering an even more ancient
temple beneath thereby revealing that the Jedi had built their stronghold over
ruins from bygone worshipper zuv the force possibly definitely the Sith hope
