ILUM: THE SACELLUM OF THE SITH
0900 Hours
Members of the Sith church will find a Jedi holocron in the depths of Ilum and attempt to open it with no success. They then devise a plot to go after a Jedi who can open it for them.

Ilum's icy temperament makes travelling to the Sacellum difficult on foot. Ships can land nearby though not directly near the temple itself which has been carved into the foot of one of its many glacial landscapes. Those familiar with its location have been granted access to its Secret Hangar which is also carefully constructed in the mountain side. Built with the finest Imperial design available, this temple is a glorious tribute to the Empire and all those under her command.
There are two parts to the Sacellum's inner halls: the temple itself and the inner sanctum. At the front of the temple's main hall stands its holy altar where the Head Priestess would bless and give communion to her followers. The long narrow halls of the temple work as tunnels in the cavern's of Ilum. There are many corridors that lead all the up into to the peak of the mountain where it is coldest. There are many private inner chambers in which one can pray, whereas one might simply wish to sit in the halls and stare at the beauty of the inner caverns.
One of these inner chambers is where Eriana Fox, The Confessor and head matron of the Sacellum, was waiting for one of her newest Speakers. Initiates of the Sacellum, her Speakers were charged with the duty of spreading the Word of her church to all members of the galaxy, not just those who were Force sensitive. Eriana wanted Sith alike to know that there was another way to see the Force than just as a tool for their own greedy use. Likewise, she wanted those who did not have that mystic touch to have a safe place and worship the way of the Dark side which has kept this galaxy safe for generations.
The Confessor had woken up early that morning, a fact evident by the no-longer steaming cup of caff she'd brought with her into this meditation chamber. The cup still had a little juice left in it but she wasn't about to drink it cold so it was left behind and forgotten. She'd spent this time while the drink cooled seated in the middle of the stone room, kneeling gently on a pillow. Eriana liked to meditate, to feel the Force throughout her. And here, in this place on Ilum, the Dark side could not be avoided. It tainted the very air they breathed and was like a miasma for it was so thick.
She was wearing her usual Sith Maraurder armor that fit her in her most valuable places while giving her the mobility to move without any hindrance. Her favorite curved lightsaber hilts that never left her side no matter what were gently hanging from a belt under her corset. Behind her back she had coiled around the same belt a Zygerrian electro whip for the added effect of being in control at all times. Though the whip could not be seen from behind as her white Imperial cloak with the Sith emblem in the center of the spine was gently draped over her shoulders. It was always cold on Ilum, but that was one of the many scary things about Eriana: she never seemed cold. Even when she plunged herself into the frozen waters in the lake under the temple, it barely phased her.
As her newest Speaker came into the room with her, she would not look up or turn around to invite him in. Instead, she merely spoke loudly enough for him to hear, "Good morning, Speaker Balguir. Have you prayed this morning?"
