"Welcome to Tython, Lord Vader."
―Doctor Chelli Aphra, to Darth Vader[5]

Tython was a terrestrial planet located in Deep Core's Tython system that played a pivotal role in the history of the Jedi Order. A verdant world that was incredibly rich in the Force, Tython was eventually abandoned when the ever-changing hyperlanes in the region drifted away from the planet and became shrouded in myth. The Martyrium of Frozen Tears was built by Jedi there, and some Jedi scholars made the case that Tython was the site of the Jedi Order's first temple. During the Galactic Civil War, Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra led the Imperial commander Darth Vader to Tython's Meridional Ice Cap to mislead him as to the location of the Rebel Alliance's main base, which was actually on the Outer Rim planet Hoth.

Description

Tython was a verdant,[2] uninhabited,[3] terrestrial planet[5] located in the Tython system[2] in the galaxy's Deep Core, positioned at the coordinates L-10[1] on the Standard Galactic Grid.[9] It was orbited by at least two moons, with the primary being known as Ashla,[4] and was incredibly rich in the Force.[2] Areas on its surface included the Meridional Ice Cap,[5] and a more temperate region.[3] Tython was home to a number of native fauna, including beasts,[10] birds,[3] butterflies,[8] and small mammals. Tython was covered in forests, grasslands,[3] and mountains.[8]

It shared its name with Tythonian pendants,[11] Tythonian Mastery Tokens,[4] and Jedha City's Tythoni Square.[12]

History

Early history

Tython played a pivotal role in the history of the Jedi Order.[2] The sacred Jedi texts contained a description of Tython's notable beasts.[10] In ancient times, the Jedi built the Martyrium of Frozen Tears in the Meridional Ice Cap.[3] Tython was eventually abandoned when the ever-changing hyperlanes in the region drifted away from the planet.[2]

Shrouded in myth, some Jedi scholars made the case that Tython was the location of the Jedi Order's first temple,[7] although in reality, it was located on the planet Ahch-To.[13] The fabled planet was thought to have troves of holocrons and datacards filled with Jedi wisdom from throughout the ages, and if one were to discover it, they could gain access to unmatched power.[14]

High Republic Era

The ancient Ga'Garen Codex held in the Jedi Archives mentioned the planet Tython and its primary moon, Ashla. Its mysteries had confounded linguists for a long time.[15] Months after the dedication of the Starlight Beacon in 232 BBY,[16] Jedi Master Elzar Mann consulted the Ga'Garen Codex and journeyed aboard his Jedi Vector to the Isle of Seclusion on Ashla. Mann had experienced a terrible Force vision during the aforementioned dedication, and chose the Isle as a place where he could meditate in solitude on what he had seen. He waded into the ocean surrounding the Isle, and eventually received a vision that directed him to the planet Valo.[15] Jedi Master Harli Cogra mentioned Elzar Mann's mission to Ashla, in Chronicles of the Jedi, a document detailing the Jedi of the High Republic written in the weeks following the destruction of Starlight Beacon[17] in 230 BBY.[18]

Imperial Era

"And dad was right for once, huh? A martyrium from the earliest Jedi cults, right in the Deep Core."
―Doctor Chelli Aphra, to 0-0-0[5]

The Meridional Ice Cap on Tython.

During the Imperial Era, the 15th Deep Core Reserve Fleet operated a hyperspace interdiction checkpoint along the only known hyperspace route between the Empress Teta system and the interior of the Deep Core.[14]

In 3 ABY,[19] in an attempt to save her loved ones who were located at the Rebel Alliance's headquarters on Hoth, Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra brought Imperial forces led by Emperor Palpatine's lieutenant, Darth Vader, to Tython, distracting them from discovering the location of the rebel base. Aphra took Vader to the Martyrium of Frozen Tears in the Meridional Ice Cap on Tython, where the the Dark Lord and his subordinates were ambushed.[5]

At some point between 3 ABY and 4 ABY,[20] the rebel and aspiring Jedi Luke Skywalker had acquired an Aurebesh list of possible Jedi locations from the Galactic Empire, whom he assumed had destroyed and ransacked all of them. The list included Tython.[21]

New Republic Era

"This is Tython. That's where we're gonna try to find you a Jedi."
―Din Djarin, to Grogu[8]

In 9 ABY,[22] the former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano instructed the Mandalorian Din Djarin to take the Force-sensitive child Grogu to Tython.[6] Djarin did so, traveling to Tython and placing Grogu on the seeing stone. Grogu entered a meditative state while perched on the stone. Meanwhile, the bounty hunter Boba Fett, along with his partner, Fennec Shand, in his ship, Slave I, tracked Djarin to Tython, intent on reacquiring his armor[8] that Djarin got from Cobb Vanth on Tatooine.[23] They were attacked by Moff Gideon's Imperial forces, and after a skirmish and the destruction of Djarin's ship, the Razor Crest, the foundling was ultimately abducted by the warlord's dark troopers.[8]

In 21 ABY,[24] Jedi Master Luke Skywalker traveled to Tython and meditate upon the seeing stone. There, he had a vision of him on Exegol where he dueled nine wraiths before the Force spirit of his father, Anakin Skywalker, came to his aid.[3]

Locations

"Go to the planet Tython. There you will find the ancient ruins of a temple that has a strong connection to the Force."
―Ahsoka Tano, to Din Djarin[6]

Vader's forces gather over Tython.

A Tythonian mountain was the site of an ancient temple that had a strong connection to the Force, though it had fallen into ruin by 9 ABY. At the top of the mountain was a seeing stone.[6]

The Meridional Ice Cap contained the underground Martyrium of Frozen Tears, which had a Force-sensitive confessional made of solid kyberite. The ice cap was also dotted with ancient statues of robed figures near the Martyrium's entrance.[5] The seeing stone was on the top of a hill in a scrubland area.[8]

Behind the scenes

"Luke, you don't even know the "grip of tython" or "the seven moves". You can't…"
―Leia Lars[25]

The term "tython" originates in the second draft of what would become Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.[25] Tython was first mentioned in the Star Wars canon in Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon 36, a 2015 magazine for the Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon series.[2] It first appeared in the 2019 comic book Doctor Aphra (2016) 40.[5] In the "Chapter 14: The Tragedy", the sixth episode of Star Wars: The Mandalorian's second season, the filming location of Tython was Rocky Peak Park in Simi Valley, California.[26]

In the Star Wars Legends continuity, Tython first appeared in the 2007 novel Darth Bane: Rule of Two,[27] where it was the original homeworld of the Je'daii Order[28] and its successor organization, the Jedi Order.[29]

The Star Wars: The Force Awakens Beginner Game places "Tython" predominantly in Standard Galactic Grid square, L-10 and partially in K-10, as does supporting Star Wars Legends material. Star Wars Galaxy Map however places "Tython" predominantly in grid square, K-10 and partially in L-10. This article currently assumes, based on comments by the map's author, Jason Fry,[30] the "Tython" grid placement at K-10 on the Star Wars Galaxy Map to be a graphical error until clarified by a future canon source.

Republic Mobile Surgical Unit 7

"Welcome to Rimsoo Seven, Jedi Barriss Offee, speaking for everyone here, I hope you will be—"
―D'Arc Vaetes, to Barriss Offee before he got interrupted by the arrival of medlifters[1]

Republic Mobile Surgical Unit 7,[4] also known as RMSU-7 (pronounced Rimsoo Seven), was one[1] of the fifteen[2] Republic Mobile Surgical Units stationed on the jungle planet Drongar during the Clone Wars in 20 BBY. The field hospital was based near the Kondrus Sea in the Jasserak Lowlands.[1] It serviced the personnel of the Galactic Republic at the Battle of Drongar alongside other surgical units under the command of Colonel D'Arc Vaetes.[1] Because of the Separatist attack, the hospital had to be moved near the Qarohan Steppes in the Jasserak Highlands. The Sea of Sponges was in between RMSU-3 and RMSU-7. It, with all the other Republic forces on the planet, left when the bota mutated and became useless.[2]

The medical base contained a cantina managed by the Ortolan, Baloob.

Tolk le Trene, a Galactic Republic nurse, wanted to transfer to RMSU 3 from 7 in order to be away from her lover Doctor Jos Vondar.[2]

"Don't be afraid of who you are."
―Dark Rey[6]

Dark Rey was a dark side phantasm that appeared to Rey in the Death Star ruins during the mission to Kef Bir.

History

Rey encountered Dark Rey while searching for the Emperor's wayfinder in the Death Star ruins.

Rey encountered Dark Rey while searching for the Emperor's wayfinder in the Death Star ruins.

The Death Star ruins were haunted by the dark side phantasm[5] that would be later known as "Dark Rey."[7] After making her way to her grandfather's former throne room in the ruins during the mission to Kef Bir, Rey felt a dark presence beckoning her from an adjacent chamber which housed the Emperor's wayfinder that she sought. Rey took the artifact, but was also confronted by[6] a cracked mirror duplicate of herself,[5] clothed in a black hood and robes, armed with a crimson hinged double-bladed lightsaber,[6] and consumed by the dark side of the Force.[8] Attacked by the dark mirror of her, Rey fought back using the Skywalker lightsaber until she stumbled backward, falling out of the chamber and dropping the wayfinder.[6]

Powers and abilities

Dark Rey radiated incredible power, and cold, ravenous hunger. Her steps echoed when they met the floor.[8] She also wielded a crimson hinged double-bladed lightsaber[5] that reeked of ozone.[8]

Although this article's title is canonical, its actual capitalization is pure conjecture.

The Southeast Woods was a snow-covered forested area on Starkiller Base,[11] located on the Unknown Regions planet Ilum.[12] During the Starkiller crisis, Rey and Kylo Ren engaged in a duel in the woods. By the duel's conclusion the ground split into two halves separating them and the area,[10] forming a new canyon.[14] Following the duel, it was destroyed when Poe Dameron, a commander in the Resistance Starfighter Corps, destroyed the thermal oscillator of the weapon, which started a chain reaction of explosions that made Ilum collapse into a star.[10]
