Darth Jeluvitas landed his b-wing on the surface of Korriban near a large tomb with three spires at the top. He exited his ship and walked to the front of the tomb where there was a large door with a triangle on it. He placed his hand on the triangle and activated the opening mechanism with the force. He entered to find three hallways going in different dirrections. On the floor in front of each hallway was a red crystal. Jeluvitas channeled force energy through the middle one, and a small platform with a black pyramid on it raised from the floor. He activated the holocron and the figure of Darth Nilihus was projected in front of him. Jeluvitas dropped onto one knee and bowed before the ancient sith lord.

After kneeling for a few seconds, The ancient sith garbled out something he couldn't understand. Jeluvitas had expected this, so he activated a second gem and the holocron of Darth Bane rose. Bane simply stared at him. Jeluvitas then spoke to Bane. "Darth Bane, my name is-."
"It doesn't matter what your name is, what do you want?" Bane interrupted.
"I am seeking ancient sith and jedi artifacts to create the ultimate force technique. The next artifact I am looking for is Darth Nilihus' mask. I came to ask him, but i cannot understand him."
"And I assume you want me to figure it out for you? Who do you think I am?! You claim to be a sith, and you can't even learn the sith language for yourself."
"I would, but all Translations of the sith language have been lost to time. There is no one alive that knows the ancient language, and no manuscripts with translations."
"Then use the power of the force!" Darth nilihus just continued to stare at him and garbled something else. "He says he will be waiting for you when you figure out how." After that, the holocrons deactivated and returned to the way they were. Jeluvitas sighed to himself and then, on a random whim, walked down the middle hallway to the resting place of Nilihus

He arrived in the middle hallway to find himself in a small tomb with ancient writings on the walls. JEluvitas began to examine the writings when the spirit of Bane appeared with Nilihus behind him. "You won't learn the language just by staring at the wall." Jeluvitas remained silent and ran his hand across the markings. Then he closed his eyes and began to expand his senses with the force. He realized that the inscriptions themselves were carved using the power of the force so that they would never fade. He began focus his energy into the writings so that he could find their meaning. Slowly, random words would translate in his head into a thought, giving him the original meaning of the word that the writer had in mind. He sat there for two full weeks translating the room, and learning to speak the ancient sith language. He sustained himself using the little moisture in the air to be pulled into his body, and using the force as his energy.

after many weeks of translating the ancient sith language, he had finally completed his task. he then returned to the main hallway to consult the holocron of darth nilihus. the holocron spoke to him, still in the ancient language, but now he could understand it. ("what do you seek from me?") the sith lord said. "I wish to find the location of your mask. the one that was taken from you by the outcaste when you were defeated. i have a plan for its channeling abilities." the sith lord then projected an image of the mask, in deep space near the planet Telos. "that is the place you seek. travel there, and if you are a true sith, you may find it." Darth Jeluvitas then left the temple and prepped his ship for hyperspace. within minutes, he had made the jump to hyperspace and was on his way.
