Hutt's cry
Talk0this wiki
A "Hutt's cry" was a slang term used during the time of the Galactic Republic to describe the sound made when a batch of worm-like k'lor'slugs hatched from their eggs. The term originated from an incident that occurred[1] around the year 3,743 BBY,[2] when a hunter named Riegenn Hetuu was hired by a Hutt to capture a live k'lor'slug queen. Hetuu had not taken the creature's high reproductive rate into account, and hoard of nearly four hundred k'lor'slugs hatched in his ship's cargo bay by the time he arrived on the planet Hutta. When he opened the cargo bay to show his client his prize, the released k'lor'slugs devoured both Hetuu and his Hutt client. The term was still used[1] around the year 3,643 BBY.[2]

- ↑ 2.0 2.1 Star Wars: The Old Republic—Codex Entry: "K'lor'slug" is a codex entry that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic, which takes place roughly ten to twelve years after the Treaty of Coruscant according to The Old Republic's lead writer, Daniel Erickson. Daniel Erickson (February 3, 2011 1:55 PM). Community. swtor.com community forums. Archived from the original on July 16, 2011. Retrieved on July 16, 2011. Since the Treaty of Coruscant was signed in 3,653 BBY according to Star Wars: The Old Republic: Deceived, this places the events of the game at approximately 3,643 BBY to 3,641 BBY. This article uses the date of 3,643 BBY as an approximate date, which would place the Hetuu's death around 3,743 BBY, but the actual date could be different.
