Yulassetar Crade

Recent developments and context

• After the evacuation from Orithena to a military-run beach camp nicknamed "New Orithena," Yul sits with Cord, Gnel, Sammann, and Erasmas as delegations bound for a major mathic gathering arrive to secure evidence and testimony. Many wish to ask them what they saw, and travel to Tredegarh is discussed.
• Engagement: Yul proposes to Cord with a plain metal ring he forged from a loop cut out of the visitors’ parachute rigging; he hammers it to size at the campfire. Cord announces the engagement and the group celebrates.
• Rig status: Companions recall the wreckage of Yul’s rig flying past during the Orithena events; Yul does not comment. This remains an inference rather than a confirmed statement.

Between Orithena and the Daban Urnud

• Public attention and debriefs: Yul and Cord are flown by aerocraft for interviews, then lodged in the capital. After media attention intensifies, they are moved to quarters near Tredegarh and later to a remote military site; he jokes there is “no hiking” in the new environment.
• Role as witnesses: He sets simple rules for interviews (no repeating already-answered questions), pushing officials and staff to organize their process.

Delegation to the Daban Urnud

• Selection: In recognition of their visibility during the Visitation at Orithena, Yul and Cord are chosen to join the Arbran delegation aboard the Daban Urnud.
• Arrival and reunion: In the ship’s Core he reunites with Cord and Erasmas in microgravity. When a speelycaptor attempts a staged narration, Yul launches from the wall and body‑checks the man away, quipping about “conservation of momentum,” which earns chuckles from nearby soldiers.
• Opening ceremonies: He accompanies the delegation through transfers to an Urnudan orb where funeral honors and peace formalities are held around an elliptical water court. He notes that certain glass‑walled pavilions are effectively “aquariums” where local staff work without breathing gear.

Devices and security

• Issued device: Yul is given a small pill‑like item described to him as a delegate “tracking” aid. Upon learning privately that such devices are weapons tied to the “Everything Killers” contingency, he discreetly hands his unit to Erasmas. Cord follows suit with hers.

Relationships and affiliations (updates)

• Cord: fiancee; they travel and operate as a pair and remain together during delegation activities aboard ship.
• Ganelial Crade: cousin (“Gnel”); their ties are warm despite differing outlooks.

Description and traits

Practical, protective, and physically confident under pressure. Comfortable with rough‑and‑ready solutions and quick to intervene when needed; adapts well to zero‑g and keeps a dry sense of humor when dealing with media and ceremony alike.

Current status / location

Present with the Arbran delegation aboard the Daban Urnud, taking part in funeral observances and the opening of peace proceedings in an Urnudan orb. He remains close to Cord and has relinquished his delegate‑issued “tracking” pill amid concerns about the Everything Killers plan.
