Swart Swifto was one of Cuy'val Dar (literally "those who no longer exist"). He trained the Galactic Republic's clone army, and later the Empire's Imperial Center Guard. Swifto upheld the tradition of the Mandalorian battle chant, Dha Werda Verda, throughout his career, teaching it to Republic clones and Imperial troopers alike.
In 2 ABY, he was interviewed by Eschul Shaywa of Imperial Center Today, and was asked about the ancient song, and the older epic off of which it was based. Swifto explained that even though the epic speaks of the non-human Taungs defeating the human Zhell nations, it can still be appropriately appreciated by all warriors, of every species.
