Original Game Codex Text. From his seat of power on Korriban, Ajunta Pall was named Dark Lord of the Sith and founded the Sith Empire. Upon his death, Ajunta Pall’s body was entombed in the Valley of the Dark Lords. After millennia of sandstorms, cave-ins and warfare, the tomb still stands as a testament to his lasting influence.
Korriban is home to the Sith Academy and is the place where you’ll find the last Star Map. You’ll need to find a way to be accepted into the Academy so you can continue the search for the Star Map.Main QuestsMeeting the SithKorriban is home to the Sith Academy and in order to find the Star Map you’ll need to pose as a Sith student. Once you exit the port the Port Authority will demand credits as normal. Either persuade him or pay the docking fee to get past.When you enter you’ll see Master Shaardan teasing some prospective students. He asks you what should be done with them.
If you can’t persuade him otherwise he’ll kill them. Further down you’ll meet Lashowe and some other Sith recruits who will give you a not-so-warm welcome.Entering the Sith AcademyExit from the Dreshdae Settlement and go towards the Sith Academy. There are those wanting to become Sith standing outside. Try to convince them to go home. Talk to the Sith Academy Guard and he’ll tell you that to enter you need a Sith Medallion. Only Master Yuthura at the Cantina can let you in.Head back to the Cantina and speak with Master Yuthura.
She may or may not let you into the Academy right away, depending on how convincing you are.Walk out of the Cantina and turn right to go back up the corridor. You’ll run into some Sith Thugs who have just been accepted into the Academy. Kill them and search their bodies.
One of them will drop the Sith Medallion. Further along another Sith recruit is killing people. Stand up for them and take him down. He drops another Sith Medallion.Go back to Yuthura in the Cantina and tell her you have a Medallion and that you want to enter the Academy.
Now convinced that you are Sith material she’ll let you in to the Sith Academy for training.Gaining PrestigeThere are a number of ways to gain prestige within the Sith Academy and you’ll need to complete various tasks before you will be accepted as a full member of the Sith. Listed below are the ways of gaining prestige. You won’t need to complete all of them.The Sith Code – Speak with Yuthura about the Sith code and she’ll tell it to you. Go back to Uthar and let him know you’re ready for the test. Here’s the code:Peace is a lie. There is only passion.Through passion, I gain strength.Through strength, I gain power.Through power, I gain victory.Through victory my chains are broken.Once you’ve passed this part of the test you’ll be asked one more question to make sure you understand the code.Nothing worse than love – FalseVictory is always desirable – FalsePassion fuels the force – TrueLashowe – Yuthura hints that betraying one of the other students would be a way to gain prestige. When you find Lashowe try to get on her good side and agree to help her find the Holocron.
When you go into the valley to the far north you’ll find Lashowe again. Fight the beast with her and she’ll take the Holocron. She’ll claim that she’ll give you credit but she won’t. Either fight her for the Holocron for dark side points and prestige or let her go for light side points.Renegade Sith – Some Sith have tried to escape and are hiding in the Shylack Caves. Enter the caves just outside of the Sith Academy and find the students. Agree to let them escape by killing the Tarentatek on the other side of the bridge to the east. Go back and let them know the way is clear.
Head back into the Academy and tell Uthar that the students have been ‘killed’ for prestige.Tomb of Marka Ragnos – When you enter the valley of the runes the first tomb on the left is the Tomb of Marka Ragnos. Check the corpse on the ground for the Sound Dampening Stealth Unit and equip it.
Once you reach the room at the end of the corridor you’ll meet a Rogue Droid.To help the droid you’ll need to switch off his killer instincts. To do so you need to disable his systems in the following order:Combat matrixMotor function matrixMemory matrixCognitive matrixEmotional construct matrixCreative simulation matrixCoreIf you’re able to do this you’ll free the droid. Otherwise you’ll have to kill him and his droid friends. Either way head back to Uthar and tell him the droid has been dealt with for more prestige points.Ajunta Pall’s Sword – The first tomb on the right as you enter the valley is the Tomb of Ajunta Pall. Walk down the corridor to the east until you reach the bridge. A pillar stands in your way as you try to cross.
Place a Frag Grenade in the pillar and run across as the droids start firing. Pull the lever on the other side to make the droids self destruct.Continue to the east to find the Tomb and Sarcophagus of Ajunta Pall.
Inside are three swords. You’ll need to place one of these swords in the statue to find the right one but which one is the right one? Click on the statue and a Sith Ghost will talk to you. He’ll tell you the sword is the one that ‘hearkens night and silences the light’. The Notched Steel Sword has the symbol of a dark circle on it.
This is the one you want to place in the statue. As you leave Shaardan will try to steal the sword from you. Take him out and then return to Uthar with the true sword for more prestige.Tomb of Tulak Hord – The last tomb on the right is the Tomb of Tulak Hord.
Walk east and then follow the north path around to the east. Use the Ancient Console to open the door and go through.
Your part will be knocked unconscious with a nerve toxin and once you wake up Jorak Uln, the previous master of the Academy, will be questioning you. Mekel has also been captured.Jorak Uln will ask you questions and torture you if you get them wrong and torture Mekel if you get them right. If you want to save Mekel answer all the questions wrong (according to the light side) and only you will be tortured but you’re strong enough to handle it. At the end you’ll get a chance to fight Jorak. Search Jorak’s remains and take the Ancient Sith Tablet that you can take back to Uthar for prestige points.The Star MapAfter completing a certain number of Prestige Quests above you’ll be given access to the Tomb of Naga Sadow.
You’ll be alone for this task. Enter the door south and then go to the intersection.To the west you’ll have to face two Terentateks. To the south is the acid pool that you can’t cross yet and to the east are the Three Pillars.Head to the east first of all. Use the computer to transfer the four systems on the left pillar over to the right. Each system has certain requirements that must be met before it can be moved.

I mean, cripes, I don't think he's even identified as a Dark Lord at all in KotOR, just a Sith Lord.It's curious.So, my question stands, why - from an IU perspective - do the KotOR Sith simply think Ajunta is an early and great Sith Lord, rather than the very first Dark Lord of the Sith and leader of the Exiles? How did he get into this aPALLing (couldn't resist ) situation?

Did his successors just hammer out a bunch of lies on his tomb wall, or what?Hmmm, actually, I suppose there is an out. Click to expand.Clearly all the random dark jedi are copying him?It's an interesting question though. If he was the first, and thus the first to be murdered by his apprentice to ascend to the title, the protocols of respect for one's predecessor may not have been established: indeed those protocols are not formally established until Bane's era.In an effort to glorify himself, it wouldn't shock me if a successor - not even necessarily his direct successor - decided to rewrite a bit of history?Or, since they're still excavating the site the Sith of that era may genuinely be ignorant of their own history and only have scraps of information? And if the heads of the academy knew they didn't want the students wandering around glorifying Pall's power over their own?Maybe? My guess is they thought using a familiar name from KotOR would bring in more fans than making someone new up, and Ajunta Pall was written as coming very early in the timeline - the life story he gives you in KotOR already confirms he was one of the leaders of the original Dark Jedi from the Hundred Years' Darkness who remembers the original split from the Jedi Order and flight to Ziost. This is integral to his story - if you redeem him, he focuses on a memory of his old Jedi Master just before dissipating.As others have pointed out, there's a lot more pathos in having this known character be the guy, assuming we need a 'first Dark Lord', than simply making up a new first Dark Lord character to whom we have no prior attachment. No, Vader's called the DLotS precisely.because.

they want the public to think of him as the reigning - indeed, only - Sith. It's supposed to feel like dredging an old name up from mythology to describe what Vader is and to indoctrinate people with the idea that the Jedi's old enemies are now legitimate.But they're still not telling the truth. Click to expand.I honestly don't understand why the two terms get confused so often in official sources, even by some of the more knowledgeable authors. I don't see how they're any more easily confused than, say, Jedi Knight and Jedi Master. All Dark Lords of the Sith (Jedi Masters) are Sith Lords (Jedi Knights), but not all Sith Lords (Jedi Knights) are Dark Lords of the Sith (Jedi Masters).I remember being pleasantly surprised with the writers of KOTOR for nailing the distinction and repeatedly specifying that Malak didn't become the Dark Lord until he'd deposed Revan.
