Legend

this ancient Twi'lek was a member of the Lek clan, which had been locked in a feud with the Rha clan for many generations. After becoming lost in a tunnel which his fellow clanmates avoided, legends say that Ko'lek mistakenly ended up in the warrens of the Rha clan, where he was befriended by Oo'rha. Not knowing her true identity, Ko'lek soon fell in love with Oo'rha. To show her the depths of his love, Ko'lek took her to the top of one of the Lonely Five pinnacles. She was breathtaken with the view, but they were caught in a heat storm. Both of them were killed by the searing heat. The tale of their love was been passed down through generations of Twi'leks as a warning about getting lost in a dark tunnel where other Twi'leks feared to tread.
