The wayfinder of the Emperor was a Sith wayfinder once possessed by Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith and ousted Galactic Emperor, which guided individuals to the Sith Citadel situated on Exegol. Initially, this artifact resided within his throne room inside the Imperial Vault located on the second Death Star. Following the mission to Kijimi, Rey, a Jedi and the granddaughter of Sidious, journeyed to the Death Star II ruins found on Kef Bir with the intention of acquiring the wayfinder. Kylo Ren, the Supreme Leader, ultimately shattered the wayfinder in an attempt to sway Rey to the dark side and compel her to join him on Exegol.
