'''The Tale of A Tiger and A Worm''' was the recounting of the [[Black Bha'lir]]'s feud with the [[Hutt Empire]]'s [[Ramesh/Legends|Ramesh clan]]. Only one member of the Black Bha'lir's [[Tribunal of the Black Bha'lir Society|Tribunal]] was ever assassinated in the society's long history. In retaliation, the Black Bha'lir destroyed the Ramesh clan and took control of the [[Omman Minor system]].<ref name="BSS">''[[The Black Sands of Socorro]]''</ref>

On [[Omman Minor]], the head of the Ramesh clan refused to pay the Black Bha'lir docking taxes on a [[Bulk freighter/Legends|bulk freighter]] docked at the [[Meril Power Station]]. In an effort to resolve the situation, the Ramesh invited a member of the Tribunal to their headquarters to discuss the issue. During the visit, the Bha'lir member was assassinated. The [[Hutt/Legends|Hutts]] believed that such an action would cripple the Bha'lir, panicking them and possibly even triggering the downfall of the society.<ref name="BSS" />

The Bha'lir's response was swift; they sent the Ramesh a gift of a rare black [[Bha'lir]] cub. The Ramesh saw the offer as capitulation, and gathered their clan to plan how to best use their new smuggling organization. However, the Bha'lir had surgically implanted [[Trauger gas]] into the cub's lungs. At the meeting, the gas was released, wiping out the Ramesh clan and sending a clear message to another planning on challenging the society.<ref name="BSS" />
