Located in Kuat City , the capital of the Core World of Kuat , the Tekshar Falls Casino was built into the rocky cliff face beneath the eponymous Tekshar Falls , part constructed materials and part natural stone . The five - hundred - meter , man - made waterfall was made to serve as an extravagant entrance to the casino , requiring prospective gamblers to make their way down a tree - lined boulevard to the base of the falls and cross a footbridge through the wall of water . Inlaid motion sensor s triggered automated force fields that parted the downpour on approach , forming a wide , dry portal in the falls for guests to pass through . Several turret outcroppings protruded through the falls from the casino within , and the rushing waterfall also provided its own hydroelectric power to the Tekshar . Behind the falls entrance , the Tekshar was warm , dry , and vividly lit . Inside , the lobby was opulently decorated , featuring flocked wall coverings , thick purple carpet ing , gilding , numerous mirrors , and low - level lighting . A front desk attended by a steward was positioned to welcome guests , and the lobby parted into two sections , one leading off toward the Tekshar Falls ' restaurant while the other lead to the gambling tables . The Tekshar ' s restaurant offered a wine list to patrons featuring a number of selections . Above the lobby , over thirteen floors filled with various suites , salons , and gaming tables were accessible by turbolift . Suites at the Tekshar Falls Casino could be furnished with gilt - framed sabacc tables , beverage - stocked kitchens , and through a pair of transparisteel doors , a railed balcony offering a view overlooking Kuat City , kept dry by an overhang that diverted the water from the falls . History . Built by the Tirual Construction Holdings company in Kuat City in the years prior to the outbreak of the Second Galactic Civil War , the Tekshar Falls Casino became renown as a Kuati feat of engineering near impossibility for its impressive use of the Tekshar Falls as an extravagant water feature .

Fraig . Following the lead to Kuat City , Fett and Gev visited the Tekshar . After checking in with the casino ' s front desk , the pair were escorted to the Tekshar ' s thirteenth floor by a Trandoshan footman where they met with Fraig in his private suite . Despite Fett ' s initial attempts to amicably persuade the gangster to share what information he knew about Skirata , violence soon broke out when Fraig was not forthcoming and Fett hung the gangster from the balcony in an effort to intimidate him .
