Takara's stronghold was a fortified location on an unidentified planet, serving as the operational headquarters for Takara himself.
Constructed directly into a cliff face on its southern side and bordered by water to the north, the structure presented significant challenges for any attempting to gain entry. The interior contained a diverse array of chambers, featuring a droid [torture](/article/torture-legends] area, a private skiff landing platform, and, most prominently, an enclosure housing a rancor.
Furthermore, it incorporated a large dungeon area, composed of fifteen individual holding cells, patrolled by two Gamorreans. However, the rear wall of one of these cells had crumbled, providing a means of egress into the adjacent sewer network for anyone confined within. This escape route would have likely proven futile, as the only viable exit led directly into the rancor's domain.
In the year 10 ABY, Mara Jade found herself incarcerated within Takara's stronghold, having been ensnared in a scheme executed by Abron Mar at Katraasii Spaceport. After battling her way out of the dungeon complex using only her hands, she managed to slay Takara's rancor, acquire a precious GCT device, and successfully flee, ultimately returning to the ranks of the New Republic.
