Aurum, later known as the lost city of Aurum, was a city on the planet Tython that was built by the Tythans, the settlers brought to Tython by the Tho Yor ships in 36,453 BBY. Over a thousand years after the Tho Yor Arrival, Aurum was destroyed during a Force Storm, a powerful phenomenon that cause fierce weather and seismic activity on Tython. The city's destruction and the death of many non-Force-sensitive Tythans was a major factor in the decision that all non-Force-sensitives should leave Tython and settle the other planets in the Tython system.
