At the moment, Yuve’li is still new to Ul’dah and just trying to stay afloat. He’s trying to pay off a debt with an interest that grows day by day and just make sure he has his next meal. All the while, he’s warily observing the Thaumaturge’s Guild, looking for potential answers.
<BACKSTORY>
The Netahr family was, for a long time, an unconventional one. For reasons she never disclosed to her youngest child, Yuve Netahr lived in isolation, choosing to raise her children alone and without the company of other women. They lived across the White Maiden, in Eastern Coerthas, where snows were thick. Survival was hard-earned, but Yuve’li and his siblings were born into the work, and so the efforts were natural to them. They depended on one another to survive the colds, and even though each of the children were born of a different father, they were all a very close family.
Though it may not seem so now, Yuve’li was the baby of his family. The youngest of four children, he was doted upon in childhood, free of heavy expectations. He loved each of his older siblings dearly, from the compassionate eldest to the acerbic second to his jubilant older sister. When Yuve’li was not yet a teen and his eldest brother finally took off to fulfill his traditional duty as a Keeper male, Yuve’li cried in his absence. Even this was endearing to his siblings and – more importantly – his mother, as traditional a matriarch as she was.
Aside from the eldest’s expected departure and the harsh weathers of Coerthas, Yuve’li had an idyllic childhood. He played with his siblings, learned how to hunt, and on rare occasion, accompanied his mother to watch her trade the furs he skinned for other goods. Before his travels, these were the only times Yuve’li met others outside his family, and even then they were primarly yur and other Keepers.
One day, when he was 17 years of age, Yuve’li and his older sister went out hunting, only to be approached by a tall stranger. Clad in black, with face obscured, all Yuve’li remembers is how the stranger loomed over them and the strong fragrance of some flower he doesn’t know. With the cryptic message that he could blame his father for what happens next, the stranger attacked with intent to kill.
Yuve’li, who had never experienced killing intent in his life, was caught completely off guard. Though his sister was barely two years older, she engaged with the stranger to protect him. She said that she would buy him time, that he should run for help.
And though he would regret it for the rest of his life, Yuve’li ran. He ran back home, calling his mother and brother for aid, that his sister, that Tohn was going to be killed. By the time he led them back, however, it was too late. The stranger was nowhere to be found, leaving only bloodstains in the snow. His sister’s corpse was on fire.
The eldest brother could not be contacted and was not present for the funeral.
