===The Ancient Past===
As with the other Worm Gods, Yul's origins are unknown. At some point, he and the other Worm Gods - [[Eir]], [[Ur]], [[Xol]], [[Akka]], and their mother [[Xita]] - were trapped deep within the gas giant planet [[Fundament]].
Yul was the one who addressed the progenitors of the [[Hive]] - [[Oryx, the Taken King|Aurash]], [[Xivu Arath|Xi Ro]], and [[Savathûn|Sathona]] - when the three sisters delved into the core of [[Fundament]] and encountered the Worms.<ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow '''Planet Destiny''' - ''Grimoire: Book of Sorrows'']</ref>  
 
When the progenitors of the [[Hive]] - three sisters named [[Oryx, the Taken King|Aurash]], [[Xivu Arath|Xi Ro]], and [[Savathûn|Sathona]] - delved into the core of [[Fundament]] and encountered the Worm Gods, Yul addressed them and offered a bargain: allow their bodies to be parasitized by the Worm Gods' larvae in exchange for immortality and paracausal abilities. The sisters accepted, and began their transformation into the god-kings of the nascent Hive.<ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow '''Planet Destiny''' - ''Grimoire: Book of Sorrows'']</ref>  


Sometime after the slaying of [[Akka, the Worm of Secrets]] by [[Oryx, the Taken King]], Yul began planning to consume and absorb the power of [[Xol|Xol, Will of the Thousands]], causing Xol to flee alongside Oryx's abandoned son [[Nokris]].<ref>[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46779 '''Bungie''': ''Destiny 2 Narrative Preview'']</ref>

*Yul is spelled Yu'''u'''l in some item names.
*Yul is spelled Yu'''u'''l in some item names.
*Yul describes himself as having wings, while none of the other Worm Gods seen thus far have had wings. The significance of this is unknown, but may be related to Yul's implied status as the most powerful of the Worm Gods.
*Yul states himself to "Behold my majesty. Behold my crushing might, my staggering size, my scales that shine with an oppressive gleam. Behold my wings, which create winds that sweep through the stars." in contrast Xol and Akka who have been said to appear as actual worms. Whether this implies that the Worm Gods can shapeshift, similar to the [[Ahamkara|Ahamkaras]], or that Yul is simply unique with his wings or the strongest of the Worm Gods is unknown.
* Yul is seen to contradict his title of the honest worm, due to the fact he tricked the hive.
