Great Western Sea

Legends Canon version → Linked from 17 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The Great Western Sea was a sea located on the planet Coruscant, not far from the Manarai Mountains. It was an artificial reservoir made during the construction of Galactic City for the enjoyment of natives and tourists, and had many artificially created islands floating on it, used by tourists on holidays. Darth Vader had a meditation retreat along the shore that was later used by his son, Luke Skywalker. The Emperor's Villa was also located along the shore.

Following the Fall of Coruscant during the Yuuzhan Vong War, it became a Succession pool.
