Emperor's Throne Room

Canon Legends version → Linked from 70 articles

The Emperor's Throne Room was a room reserved for Darth Sidious, the Galactic Emperor of the Galactic Empire aboard the DS-2 Death Star II Mobile Battle Station. It was located at the pinnacle of the Emperor's Tower in the north pole of the battle station. The throne room was designed for the sole purpose of intimidating those who entered it. Four years after the Battle of Yavin, as a decisive encounter raged both in space and on the surface of Endor, the Emperor's Throne Room hosted the fateful duel between Darth Vader and his estranged son Luke Skywalker.
