Thread: Isn't it the Singing Mountain Clan that has the Rancors, not just the Nightsisters?

Actually I don't remember the Nightsisters even having Rancors as mounts or anything. My memory may be off, but I do recall towards the end of "The Courtship of Princess Leia" the Singing Mountain Clan using Rancors in battle. I remember one of them going up against a AT-ST and dying from havingher arm blown off and only after destroying it. I am not trying to start an argument or anything. I am only curious about it...

They both had rancors, only the Singing had it highlighted. (Nightsisters had rancors first)

Okay, I sifted through my copy of Courtship. The passage in question is on page 240 of the paperback version:











Leia studied Teneniel thoughtfully, realized the girl must have felt her curiosity about the rancors. "I think Tosh loves your people," Leia said.


Teneniel nodded, reached up to scratch the rancor's hind leg. "Yes, she's very grateful that her herd is strong, but none of the rancors are happy about the Nightsisters."


"You told me earlier that the rancors will not serve the Nightsisters," Luke said. "Why is that?"


"The Nightsisters treat them badly, as if they were mere slaves. So the rancors always run away."

So at one time the Nightsisters had rancors or so it seems. Now though in the book the rancors will no longer serve them. I knew it was something with them and not being around the Nightsisters. I would have looked myself, but I can't find my copy of Courtship to look in. Thank you Vert for checking it out

now the question is... who isgonna go tell the NS rancor tamers they are out of a job



I can just see a "Wait for the Combat Revamp" and "Wait for the Smuggler Revamp" quote all rolled into one.
"Wait for the Smuggbat Revamp"
Smuggbat, I like that
