Contemplation balcony

The contemplation balcony was an exterior platform situated halfway up the Temple Spire, the main spire of the Jedi Temple on the planet Coruscant. The location was used by members of the Jedi Order for solitary meditation and reflection. In 88 BBY, Jedi Master Lene Kostana awaited the return of her convor, Ferana, upon the balcony. Shortly thereafter, Kostana and Jedi Initiate Dooku had an altercation on the balcony as Dooku suspected Kostana was secretly a Sith. Jedi Grand Master Yoda broke up the duel after Dooku became too aggressive and helped the Initiate see that he was incorrect in his accusations toward Kostana.

Dooku later told his sister, Jenza, about the events in a holo-letter. Around 23 BBY, Dooku gave several data disks containing his messages to Jenza to his recently recruited Sith assassin—Asajj Ventress—for her investigation into his sister's location, and she listened to the holo-disk that mentioned the contemplation balcony.
