Tulak Hord's tomb was the Sith Lord's final resting place. It was located on the Sith world of Korriban. It was inhabited by a nest of tuk'ata during the Jedi Civil War. Tulak Hord's tomb was among the first to be penetrated by the 'graverobbers' of the Sith Empire. Jorak Uln hid there after being overthrown by his apprentice Uthar Wynn. He kidnapped Sith students such as Mekel. When the redeemed Jedi Revan explored the tomb, he was knocked out by Jorak Uln. In the burial chamber Revan allowed himself to be tortured instead of Mekel by not answering Jorak's questions correctly. Gratefully, Mekel helped Revan kill Jorak Uln, and Revan convinced Mekel to turn back to the Light side of the Force. The great statue over the entrance was most likely modeled after the Sith Lord himself.
[edit] Behind the scenes
In Knights of the Old Republic there is also the non-canon dark side option of answering the Jorak Uln's questions correctly, thereby causing Mekel to be tortured and killed. The character player then has the option to loot the remains.
