Krisklar Mountain stood amongst the numerous mountains found on Skye, which itself was a planet within the Marat system. According to the beliefs of the native sentients of Skye, the S'kytri, this particular mountain was revered as a goddess. The legends told the tale of the principal deity, the Great Wind, who mated with the goddess Krisklar, resulting in the creation of the S'kytri species. Upon the death of a S'kytri individual, their remains were transported to Krisklar Mountain to undergo excarnation by the winged skingles. During the Battle of Skye, which occurred in 21 BBY, many fatally injured S'kytri tried to reach Krisklar Mountain before their final breath.
