1138 poisons Honoghr soil.
- "And then, when finally we dared to hope it was over, the strange-smelling rain began to fall."
- ―Maitrakh Clan Khim'bar
Trihexalophine1138 was an experimental Separatist bioweapon that was to be tested on Naboo. It was carried on a Lucrehulk-class Core Ship, the Gahenna, which was destroyed above the planet Honoghr during a space battle. The resulting crash, coupled with the release of the toxin into the soil, crippled Honoghr's ecosystem. This event paved the way for the forty-year slavery of the Noghri by the Galactic Empire.
