Kaleth

Kaleth was an ancient fortress city founded by the Je'daii before the formation of the Galactic Republic. While left in ruin by the time of the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the fortress remained an important archaeological site for the Jedi Order.

History
An ancient fortress city of Kaleth was established by the Je'daii when they first arrived on Tython, the city was home to the Temple of Knowledge, built around the mysterious Tho Yor ships that delivered them to the lush planet. Following the Force Wars and the abandoning of Tython, Kaleth and its Temple crumbled and, while reoccupied several times by various Force-wielding sects, was never restored to its former glory.

Following the rediscovery of the Tython by Jedi Master Satele Shan, the Jedi Order relocated their headquarters to their ancestral homeworld to replace their Coruscant Temple destroyed at the end of the Great Galactic War. Upon locating Kaleth, many Jedi believed it would be an idea foundation for their new Temple. Despite this, the Jedi High Council decided that it would be more wise to study Kaleth from a distance and chose to construct their new Temple in a nearby valley just north of the site.

Setting up an archaeological camp at the site of the ruins, the Jedi were startled to find ancient wardroids that attacked any who entered the site; if Jedi designed the droids, why were they killers? Unbeknownst to Tython's new residents, the droids had been designed by an ancient Jedi known as the Weapon Master to protect the First Blade, the template for the modern lightsaber. Master Till'in led the team that sought to discover the reason for the droids' attacks and hoped to unlock the mystery surrounding the ancient fortress.

Layout
A large walled city, the ancient fortress of Kaleth was constructed on a slopping hill nestled in a mountainous region of Tython. Accessible by two roads, the main entrance to the city was through a massive stone archway that opened into a spacious courtyard where a towering statue kept watch over the entrance. Many small structure existed in the area, while the Temple of Knowledge was positioned higher up the slope.
