The Ratitan whisperfly was a tiny insect from the Ratit system known for its low, insistent buzzing. As such, it was used as slang for a rule or order one stubbornly stuck by.[1]
History
In 19 ABY, smuggler Talon Karrde considered New Republic General Garm Bel Iblis to have figuratively put a Ratitan whisperfly into Commander Corran Horn's ear, when the latter constantly reminded Karrde of the former's orders that his presence wasn't to be made known while meeting onboard the Errant Venture.[1]
