Temple of Eedit / Legends The Temple of Eedit , also known as the Eedit Temple , was a temple of the Jedi Order that was located on the jungle planet Devaron . The temple had two towers that borrowed the architectural styles of Coruscant ' s Jedi Temple . A hub of Jedi training in the Devaron system , the facility was built around a vergence in the Force . It was used as the Republic base for Devaron Space during the Clone Wars . History . Erected by the Jedi Order to serve as a base for training in Devaron Space , due to the region ' s dense population of Force - sensitives , the Temple was small compared to others across the galaxy . Constructed near the city of Tikaroo over top of a vergence in the Force , the Temple was surrounded on all sides by dense jungle that thrived off of the Force nexus ' power . The vergence itself assisted in the learning of new healing skills and promoted self - renewal . When the Clone Wars erupted between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems , the Temple was used as a military base and surveillance post for the Grand Army ' s operations in the region . Construction of the Republic outpost was initially overseen by Jedi Master Bolla Ropal until a Separatist assault on the base drove him offworld . Later , around 21 BBY , Separatist forces invaded Devaron to destroy the temple . Though the Temple ' s caretaker Jedi Master Halsey and his Padawan , Knox , alongside Clone Commander Trauma and his troops , defended the temple from the Separatist Droid Army , Count Dooku ' s new apprentice Savage Opress suddenly appeared in the midst of the battle and took out all Republic forces , including the two Jedi . At the end of battle , no clones , droids , or Jedi survived , only Opress . The clone commando unit Delta Squad investigated the outpost and brought back the bodies of Halsey and Knox to the Jedi Temple . After the assault , the Temple fell out of use and the locals began avoiding the site . Following the rise of the Empire at the end of the Clone Wars , the Imperial Navy bombed the Temple and destroyed anything with Jedi symbolism , toppling statues and burning records . The top of the main tower was targeted , and rubble from its collapse blocked the main entrance . The Imperials left a crater in the main hall , evidence of a targeted demolition on something that once sat at its center . The jungle began to advance on the courtyard , held back by the power of the vergence , which attracted pikhron s to the circular area . Layout . Consisting of two dissimilar gray towers connected at their base , the central tower ' s upper sections were adorned by three decorative fins similar to the Coruscant Jedi Temple . The base of the tower was dominated by the main hall . The upper floors contained the caretaker ' s offices , dining halls , classrooms . The towers were surrounded by low - lying residences and greenhouses , and fronted by a circular courtyard used for group meditation and training exercises . During the Clone Wars , communications arrays and dishes were installed to serve as a Republic listening post . In the wake of the Imperial bombing , an underground security tunnel was left exposed and the main entrance collapsed . Many of the statues that dotted the campus were defaced and the pinnacle chambers of the main tower were caved in .
