In 3956 BBY, a modest establishment known as Yortal's Emporium, alternatively referred to as Yortal Ixlis's Junk Shop, could be found in the eastern sector of Ahto City on the planet of Manaan. This shop primarily dealt in pre-owned mechanical goods, encompassing a variety of items from armor plating suitable for swoop bikes to specialized droid armaments, such as flamethrowers. The Ithorian named Yortal Ixlis was both the proprietor and caretaker of this establishment.
Ixlis initially established the shop on Manaan under the directives of the Czerka Corporation. His assignment was to liquidate used merchandise to settle a debt incurred from a failed task assigned by a Czerka executive. Sith troopers stationed at the nearby Sith Embassy frequently visited the shop, often to antagonize the owner.
During 3956 BBY, the Jedi Revan, suffering from amnesia, made a visit to the shop while on a quest to locate the Rakatan Star Map concealed on Manaan. After Revan demonstrated that the Sith were abducting young Selkath, he received a discount at the shop as a token of gratitude for his actions.
Yortal's Emporium made an appearance in the 2003 video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, developed by BioWare. Additionally, it was referenced as Yortal Ixlis's Junk Shop within the game's strategy guide.
