Templemarch was a city on the planet Crucival where the Opaline Creed faction was present in 4 BBY, operating from a cloister outside the city until its fall. The young man Hazram Namir, once a member of the Creed, took refuge in the since-ruined cloister in 0 BBY, wishing to avoid Templemarch itself. Namir eventually left the ruins to follow some people leaving the city.

History[]

Templemarch was a city on the^[1] Outer Rim^[2] planet Crucival.^[1] By 4 BBY,^[3] the religious faction Opaline Creed operated from an ancient cloister outside Templemarch and had a presence in the city.^[1] That year,^[3] the young man Hazram Namir, a member of the Creed who went by the name "Umu Seven," traveled to a bazaar to do errands for the Creed before returning to Templemarch and the cloister. The Creed eventually fell, and the cloister was reduced to ruins.^[1]

In 0 BBY,^[4] after fleeing a losing battle against the Rebel Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry he had fought in for the Galactic Empire, Namir took refuge in the cloister's ruins for nearly a week, surviving by scavenging bird eggs. He believed that he could not return to Templemarch after causing his own allies to be killed in the battle he had escaped. However, after the 61st began a recruitment drive, a number of people trickled out of Templemarch to the rebel company's camp. Noticing the people leaving the city, Namir left the cloister's ruins to join them and was ultimately recruited into the 61st at their temporary camp.^[1]
