Boreth is a planet in the Boreth System of the Boreth Sector and site of a Klingon monastery.

History

At the end of his rule in the 9th century, Emperor Kahless the Unforgettable pointed to a star in the sky over Qo'noS and told his followers to look for him on this point of light. The star turned out to be the sun of the Boreth system, and Klingon monks would later found a monastery on Boreth.

In 2369, Klingon monks on Boreth, who were unhappy with the moral and political situation in the Klingon Empire, cloned Kahless from DNA fragments extracted from the ancient Knife of Kirom. The clone "appeared" to Lt. Cmdr. Worf while meditating on Boreth and subsequently claimed leadership of the Empire. Worf and Chancellor Gowron uncovered the monks scheme, but later agreed to install the clone of Kahless as a representative and moral "Emperor" without real power.

By 2394, Alexander Rozhenko left Qo'noS for Boreth in order to undergo the Challenge of Spirit. Two years later and back on Earth, he was considering writing a book about his experiences on Boreth.
