A twisted mirroring of the planet-encasing cities of Coruscant, Nar
Shaddaa is the Huttese name for the over-urbanized planetoid known commonly as the Smugglers' Moon.

The spaceport moon orbits the Hutt stronghold world of Nal Hutta, in the Y'Toub system. The native Evocii were displaced to the largest of Nal Hutta's moons, Nar Shaddaa, but the Hutts eventually annexed the moon as well.

Over the centuries, Nar Shaddaa grew as an important way station in interstellar trade. Ancient refueling spires and loading docks still reach out from the native soil into orbit, and in between, vast vertical cities have filled the spaces. The lower levels fell into disrepair and decay, and the lowliest of dregs were forced into the decrepit undercity. The descendants of the Evocii degenerated in the shadowed filth of Nar Shaddaa's foundations, mutating into unwholesome savages.

For a time, Nar Shaddaa enjoyed an air of luxury, but changing political climes turned it into a criminal haven. The moon is firmly affixed in the galaxy's criminal underbelly, and no amount of reform will ever bring it into the light again. Ship-jackers, slavers, spice dealers, pirates, hunters and other unsavory types congregate in the vile cities. For a price, anything can be bought and sold on Nar Shaddaa, and many young smugglers and fringe-types get their start on the Smugglers' Moon.

Darth Noctis hovered above a good patch of solid ground where he then landed his starfighter. It would apporximately 3 miles from the actual city where his vision saw Terak. Once out of the cockpit he told his droid to watch the ship. He hooded himself and started to walk. His robes fluttered in the wind like clothes on a windy day. This walk would take no less than half an hour to finish, though he doubted that Grand Moff Terak was a Force adept and would be able to sense Darth Noctis. So that meant Apren could take his sweet time walking around the dunes.

Noctis entered the bar. As he had guessed, it was full of low life criminals. He smirked under his hood, he thought he would fit right in. And plus, the black robe would have been a symbol that he was Sith and shouldn't be messed around with anyhow.

What even surprised him more was that no one noticed him enter the facility. They were all continuing their converstation and their fight, and whatever the hell they were doing. In a calm, slow pace, Noctis walked toward the bar. "What'll it be?" The bar tender asked. Noctis thought about it for a moment. Usually he would just massacre everyone first and leave the bartender shaking his boots after wetting himself, but then again, he didn't want to be found and he knew there would be some Jedi around. "Strongest liquor ya got." He replied after sitting down.

Terak was not here, he could feel it. Not in this bar, not in this neighborhood, not here. Sure this was only one of two new city colonies, but his range of the Force could have sensed him once he entered the city. Asking for information would be the next thing to do, but then again, he didn't want to bring attention to himself.

A weathered old man sat in one of the corner booths, and drank his ale. Not caring much as he watched a new figure enter the bar, a person wearing a heavy black cloak at that. But he was used to seeing all types come in here, probably just another begger. He took another sip of his drink and watched as the beggar approached the bartender, and amazingly to his supprise actually paid for something. The old man watched now even more interested than before, clearly this was no begger infact now that he searched his mind alittle bit more he reconised the type of cloak this was. And to help convince him even more he watched as the bartender suddenly and mysteriously began to choke. The man gulped heavily and leaving a few credits on the table, got up quickly and began to run for the exit. His mind was racing, "how?! How were they able to find us? No no this bad. really bad, I gotta warn Terak immediately." He thought to himself as he raced out of the bar.

Noctis inhaled deeply all of a sudden. He had felt a terrible ripple in the Force. He felt Darth Wrath's anger and temper as well as Darth Cubolla destroying the Temple of the Force. "Idiots, to wage war now would only make their forces even more depleated than ever. I guess Darth Belial's take over will be long..." he thought to himself as he started to walk around the town. As Noctis stride, he heard yells from the people's rooms in buildings. He saw the holonet starting their story on the new war waged by Darth Wrath. Noctic could not but help himself grin. Wrath was destroying himself, digging his own grave deeper, doing the exact thing the Sith Spirits of Old feared he was going to do and would do. Noctis shook his head in pity. The Sith Order had truely fallen and now needs a new leader. Someone like Noctis, though for now Darth Belial is in need.

Noctis felt a disappearance in the Force. "Kyle....." Noctis thought to himself for a moment. He shook the thought out of the way and continued his search for Terak. He had asked around, and with better results (due to the fact that he threatened everyone and killed those who didn't answer as an example). Darth Noctis finally made it to the living area. It was where the scum who weren't able to afford a decent hotel or apartment stayed. "Just like as I would have guessed...." Noctis said to himself as he entered the the small community.

"Where is Grand Moff Terak?" Noctis asked a person who was just passing by. Scared, the young man started to stutter, "I-I-I...do-don't know...." Noctis held his face closer to the young man and tried to search his eyes. Noctis let the kid go and the kid ran. Darth Noctis was close to his target. He could feel it.

"He lives there," The young boy said to Noctis pointing at an old looking shack. "Get outta here," Noctis said pushing the boy back as he walked towards the door. Once there, Noctis gazed upon the threshold. He was about to cross it and perhaps a new adventure would be found. Noctis pressed the button which would alert the persons inside the house that someone was at the door. This would be it, Noctis could feel Terak's presence behind the door, Noctis is so close to finding Darth Belial.

Noctis felt impending danger as the door slid open. Quickly raising his left hand close to his chest, he ignited his lightsaber. The crimson blade rose right in front of his hooded face, deflecting the blaster bolt down to the front near Terak's foot. "That isn't a nice thing to do to guests..." Noctis growled as he entered the domain deactivating his lightsaber. Without even letting Terak know who he was, or if for the matter he was Sith, Noctis extended his right arm, moving his fingers as if he was choking someone. But of course, Noctis was; he was Force Choking Terak, lifting him up from his seat. However, Noctis did not do it too hard for he did not want to kill the man. "Now you will tell me, where is Darth Belial!!!!!"
