- "Where? To the Singing Mountain? The Howling Crag? Where?"
- ―Falta to Old Daka upon asking where the Nightsisters sent her daughter Yenna
The Singing Mountain was a Dathomirian witch clan operating at the Singing Mountain on the[2] Outer Rim Territories[3] planet Dathomir.[2] Like all other Dathomirian clans, a Mother led the Singing Mountain.[1] In 20 BBY,[4] directly after the Battle of Dathomir and the slaughter of the Nightsister clan by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the witch of no clan Falta visited the ruins of the Nightsister lair and found the dying[2] Nightsister elder[5] Old Daka. After Daka explained that Yenna, the daughter of Falta that had joined the Nightsisters years prior, was sent off somewhere safe, Falta questioned whether she was sent to the Singing Mountain or Howling Crag clans.[2] Sometime between 20 BBY and 19 BBY,[6] Falta had traveled to the planetoid Sídi, where she recounted her encounter with Daka to the young girl known as "Bug."[2]
