Cleansing of Korriban

In 3993 BBY, Jedi Knights Duron Qel-Droma, Shaela Nuur, and Guun Han Saresh were sent on a secret mission to hunt terentateks on the Sith homeworld of Korriban. Having established themselves as the best hunters in the Jedi Order in the Great Hunt of previous months, the three Jedi were specifically handpicked by the Jedi High Council to undertake this task. After journeying to the planet, the group began its investigation in the Dreshdae settlement. However, before they fought a single terentatek, Saresh left the group, disapproving of the budding romance between Qel-Droma and Nuur. Without their compatriot, Qel-Droma and Nuur proceeded onward into the Valley of the Dark Lords, where they believed the terentateks were living.

Venturing into a cave, Qel-Droma and Nuur eventually came across a terentatek. Although Qel-Droma planned to confuse the beast with a mental Force power, he realized that he could not make contact with the terentatek and was killed before he could react. Consumed with grief and anger at the death of her lover, Nuur chased the terentatek deeper into the cave, eventually coming across the beast in the ancient tomb of Dark Lord of the Sith Naga Sadow. There, she was attacked by another terentatek and was killed.
