Shortly before his death, Kahless The Unforgettable pointed to a star over Qo'noS and said that he would return to that place someday. The Klingons later came to Boreth which orbited that star and established the famous monastery there. But, when the Klingon warships first came to Boreth they discovered a small native pre-industrial population numbering about one million. They were called the Jinvana. The Jinvana made no resistance to the Klingons and were used as slave labor to build the monastery. Later, the Jinvana were freed, but some continued to work and live on the monastery grounds. Because of it's high elevation Boreth has bitterly cold winters, but the rest of the year can be quite pleasant. Many exotic, toxic and highly dangerous, even carnivorous plants are grown in the botanical gardens on Boreth.
The clerics at the monastery, seeing the decay in the Klingon society decided to recreate a clone of Kahless using genetic material that had been preserved thorough out centuries. They then programmed the clone with memories from the original Kahless and had him appear to Worf who was on a spiritual retreat to Boreth. Worf felt the clone had an important role to play in rebuilding the Klingon society and proposed naming the clone "Emperor Of The Klingons".
In 2375 Boreth was the site of a battle between forces loyal to Chancellor Martok and those loyal to Gothmara. After Kahless disappeared and was replaced by a holographic projection the monastery on Boreth was contacted to determine if he had returned there. But, Kahless had not been seen by the staff who believed that all records of his cloning had been destroyed in the assault four years earlier and no back ups were made.
