Sacred Leviathan Burial Space

From Farscape Encyclopedia Project

The Sacred Leviathan burial space is a remote corner of space, the location of which is closely guarded by all Leviathans (although it was eventually discovered by the brilliant Kalish Sikozu Svala Shanti Sugaysi Shanu). It is the place to which Leviathans come to die, and is also the place where live Leviathans will bring their dead for burial.

Moya came to this sacred ground to bury the remains of her offspring, Talyn, who had destroyed himself to save his friends and his mother. Although Moya believed that the nobility of his sacrifice made him worthy of burial in the sacred space, another Leviathan did not see eye to eye with her on this, and attacked her in an attempt to stop her from completing her mission. Moya fought back, and begged her passengers to destroy the deranged Leviathan before she could scatter Talyn's remains; D'Argo agreed to do so, and destroyed the Leviathan with his ship, Lo'La.

Crichton would later spend several weeks or even months here aboard the dying Leviathan Elack.
