The Origin of Yeldarb

A couple of the humans that help us in our training have been asking as to how Yeldarb got its name (even after I had blogged "don't ask"). After relentless questioning by the rest of the P.A.C.K.S., Yeldab finally relented and told us (even we didn't know, but Gothyk was strangely quiet during the questioning. We found out why when the story was told!). Yeldarb's original name was Yozan (which means "great clan ruler" in the native language of Nexus) until a long night of playing the game fizbin found Yozan (Yeldarb) owing Gothyk a serious amount of silica. They agreed to play one last game, with the provision of Yozan putting his name up against the silica of Gothyk. Needless to say, Yozan lost, and Gothyk got to choose the new name. It took three Earth years after that episode before Yozan (now Yeldarb) communicated with Gothyk again. And during every Tag Training exercise, those two still battle each other harder than they do with any other P.A.C.K.S.

By the way, Yeldarb means (loosely translated) "door mat" in Nexus' language!
