Thyr

The Silent Desert

The Silent Desert is a vast wasteland of sand which is possessed of a mystifying, sound-absorbing quality. While all sound died on the surface, a series of caverns were located underground where rocky strata under the sand insulated the vast cave network from the effect seen on the surface. Members of the Je'daii Order, erected a Temple of Force Skills which they named Qigong Kesh.

Qigong Kesh: Force Skills Temple

Qigong Kesh, or the Temple of Force Skills is one of nine temples of the Je'daii Order located on the verdant world of Tython. Located among the dunes of the Silent Desert on the continent of Thyr, the Temple known as Qigong Kesh serves as the Order's academy for enhancing and improving one's mental and sensory skills with the Force.

The Stark Forests

The Stark Forests is a forest region on the continent of Thyr on the planet Tython. The trees of the Stark Forests sucked moisture from the air and stored water in leathery sacks that hung like pendulums from their skeletal branches, and the sacs were useful to travelers who were passing through the area. A small stream ran through part of the forests, and hook hawks—carnivorous birds native to Tython that hypnotize their victims with song—are often found in flocks in the Stark Forests.
