It was stored in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant until the Great Galactic War. During the Sacking of Coruscant, the temple was destroyed and the Noetikons were lost. The artifact was obtained by members of the Black Sun and surgically implanted into an unknown smuggler affiliated with the crime syndicate. It was discovered by a Jedi Consular while on a mission to cure Yuon Par of a mysterious illness. After a brief consultation, the three masters were unable to think of a cure for the illness and recommended that the Jedi Consular and Qyzen Fess pursue the Noetikon of Secrets.
