YAKU (soul of Groh)
Alignment: Benevolent
Age: 47
Yaku married Enki* at age 18 (year after *Kraag's birth - his birth kept secret in shame). Birthed *Akemi 3 years later.
Yaku suffered burns to the face in the disastrous town fires when captured by the Orcs. But didn't resist capture as wanted to keep her business with *Gormley secret from Akemi and Enki and the truth of her hybrid son Kraag hidden. The Orcs actually came for Akemi who had been marked as a child for future apprehension for the human/elf/orc breeding program. Yaku sacrificed herself also in order that Akemi would be spared the horrendous deception/violation that she herself suffered when in her late teens. At an impressionable age Yaku was groomed by Gormley and misled, only realising what she had volunteered for when it was too late to back out.
Yaku wears a mask due to a mysterious plague-like ailment whereby blood is coughed up at times of high physical exertion. Said to be an incurable affliction arising from the mixture of human and orc body fluids, but not contagious between humans. She told Enki (and later Akemi) that this was a genetic disorder from her side of the family by generation gap dating back to feudal plagues of the past - truth mixed with lies.
Yaku hid her past from Enki and Akemi due to her overwhelming shame and hoped that somehow it would remain buried and become nothing but a repressed memory. But the past has a way of catching up.
