Syned One

OnALegendsArticle

Syned One was a terrestrial astronomical object[3] located in the Syned system of the Grumani sector,[1] a part of the Trailing Sectors portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It shared its name with the planet Syned,[4] which was also in the Syned star system.[1]

Syned One featured on its surface an alien obelisk. Every six hundred years, the alignment of the stars in the sky would make the alien obelisk reveal unusual inscriptions.[3] By 3643 BBY,[5] the obelisk once again revealed the writings.[3]

This section of the article assumes 100% game completion. Any alternate stories may be noted in the "Behind the scenes" section. The events in this section may or may not have been confirmed as canon within the Star Wars Legends continuity.

Around that year,[5] an individual associated with one of the two opposing governments in the ongoing struggle between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire sent a companion to Syned One to observe the appearance of the inscriptions on the obelisk. The companion eventually deciphered a map from the writings that led them to a strange discovery.[3]

Assumption ends here.

Behind the scenes

Syned One was mentioned in BioWare's 2011 video game Star Wars: The Old Republic in the Crew Skill Mission "The Syned Conjuction," though the information regarding the mission's outcome was later removed from the game.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Syned system, and therefore Syned One, in grid square N-17.[2]

Since players of The Old Republic can assign their companions on the mission "The Syned Conjunction" independently of the main class storyline at any point during the game, the mission must take place at some point around 3643 BBY.
