Prologue: The Sith Inquisitor
The power of the dark side grows. The SITH EMPIRE has won a major victory against the Galactic Republic and its Jedi Guardians, conquering and enslaving many new worlds. With a fragile peace in place, the Empire sends its slaves to the ancient Sith stronghold of Korriban, hoping to unearth relics of vast power that can be used to dominate the galaxy. One slave, powerful with the force, has been released from servitude and forced to master the dark arts of the Sith or die trying....
Overseer Harkun ridicules you for being the last one to arrive, he hopes that you do not think you're special. It would be a shame if freedom went to your head, or if you somehow got the idea you didn't need to pass your trials to become Sith. Lord Zash has tasked him with sorting through you refuse to find one worthy of being her apprentice, and he intends to do just that. Kory approaches you and tells you to watch your back and that Harkun cannot kill you all. You can flirt with her if you want. As the others leave, Overseer Harkin tells you of your trial. There's a hermit named Spindrall who lives in the tomb of Ajunta Pall in the Valley of the Dark Lords. Spindrall's a lunatic, but Lord Zash sees him as some kind of prophet. Once you find him, he will test you.

Of Mind and Matter
You have been pulled from the ranks of slaves on Korriban and given a chance to complete the trials of the Sith Academy and become Sith, much to the disgust of your instructor, Overseer Harkun. Your first trial is to find the sacrificial chamber in the tomb of Ajunta Pall and speak to the hermit Spindrall, who will test your worth. Go to the sacrificial chamber in the tomb of Ajunta Pall.
Open your map and locate the exit of the Korriban Arrival Port, center west. Cross the Valley of the Dark Lords. You can kill 6 K'lor'slug foragers on the way to complete a bonus mission, "Cleanse the Valley". Enter the tomb to the west. In the tomb, check your map again. Go south and enter the Sacrificial Chamber. Speak to Spindrall. He gives you a trial, to defeat his acolytes. Once you've killed them all, speak to him again. Your task now it so report to Overseer Harkun's new location in Sith Academy.
Exit the Sacrificial Chamber and head west to the upper level of Ajunta Pall. Then work your way up north to exit the tombs. On the way, kill 6 K'lor'slug cripplers for the bonus mission "Prove Your Worth". When you emerge from the tomb you will find yourself at the Sith Academy. Locate Overseer Harkun in his chambers to the North. He will give you your next trial, to go see Inquisitor Zyn in the Jails.
This completes the quest "Of Mind and Matter" and begins the next quest, "The Plight of the Acolyte".
