Yorka-Daahat

Yorka-Daahat (born 474:36) was a Glaan who served as Len-Glaan from 510:15 to 512:21. She was most famously associated with her mysterious disappearance from Mount Faalad in 512:19, which was considered a major cause of the schism between the Glaan-Argar and Glaan-San traditions, and the legends of her subsequent journey through North San.

The Journey of Yorka
Yorka and her two children, Bilib and Chee, left Mount Faalad in 512:19. They journeyed north, through Koorsanaan, Kasit-San, and Harb, seeking to truly understand the Aba and its creations. In 512:65, they stopped for rest in the town of Kal in the state of Abilaan. Yorka stood in the centre of the square, preaching to the bystanders. When a crowd had gathered, she revealed her identity welcomed the people to be grateful to the Aba for everything that they have been given by its will. Then, she asked one of the citizens to approach her with a problem. After a while, a man came forward and told the crowd his sibling was dying. Yorka, the man, and the people of Kal went to the house of the dying citizen, but only the Glaan and the troubled man went inside. Yorka blessed the dying man and gave gratitude to the Aba. As soon as this had been done, the sick man was elevated by a sudden energy; he rose from his cradle and exclaimed with joy, “I am well. I am fit and happy, as greater than I ever was. Sir, bless you, and serve you I will with this fresh blood that flows so blissfully through my body. Sir, bless you.” Yorka spoke wisely and humbly, “that blood is the blood of the Aba. It flows through you bringing you to life, as it flows through all things bringing them to existence.” The crowd were amazed by this miracle and many followed Yorka on his journey, including the healed man.

Whilst travelling north, the party came across a lonely house at the foot of a hill. Yorka introduced herself to the landowner and asked to camp in his field. The man told him to leave as he was blind and had lost trust in mankind. The Glaan told her party to give gratitude to the Aba for light. This was done. The man ran out of his house proclaiming that he could see. He offered the group land and food, and when they were leaving, he followed.

After travelling for some time, the party arrived at a small congregation of buildings in a wide prosperous valley. Here, they gave gratitude to the Aba for happiness. A farmer from the settlement approached the crowd and told them they were wrong, and that happiness did not exist in his life. Yorka asked her why this was, and the woman replied, “I only ever wanted to succeed my mother and be head of this family and own this land, but my older sister is her chosen successor. If I do not own my land then by what purpose do I have to live.” Yorka comforted the woman and took her to a high peak which overlooked all the mountains in the area. Yorka gave gratitude to the Aba for beauty and suddenly a great light was cast across all the world, in a flash of spectacular white, lighting a fire of colour in the valleys that engulfed all of nature into a singularity so that stars swam in the daylight sky and land rose and fell into the oceans. The farmer looked around and saw beauty in everything. She proclaimed her happiness and they descended the mountain. The people of that village were overcome with praise and admiration; they joined YORKA in her journey.

The group continued and stopped where the northern most point of man’s civilisation was marked by huge mountains. Here, they built a settlement and lived in peace for many years. Yorka taught them her wisdom and, many years later, she resumed her pursuit and crossed the mountains. What became of her is unknown, but no report exists of her after this point. It is assumed that her children, Bilib and Chee, remained at the settlement as her successors.
