Legend

this was the name used to describe the unusual, miniature version of the StarCave that was contained within the boundaries of the ThonBoka. Measuring twenty kilometers in diameter, the Cave of the Elders was created by the native Oswaft from the atomic elements and molecules they consumed. Unlike the rest of the ThonBoka, the Cave of the Elders was a solid structure, composed entirely of crystalline refuse the Oswaft exuded as part of their normal metabolism. During the early years of the New Order, Lando Calrissian discovered that the crystals of the Cave were among the purest forms of the galaxy's most valuabel gemstones, making the Cave ostensibly worth billions of credits. The Elders of the Oswaft used the Cave as their primary meeting place.
