'''Yul, the Honest Worm''' is one of the [[Worm Gods]], ancient beings second only to the [[Darkness]] itself in the hierarchy of the [[Hive]] pantheon.

==Biography==
{{quote|Yul yearns for nurture. It does so through honesty.|[[Xita, the Nurturing Worm]]}} <ref> '''Bungie (2022.03.09)''', '''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]], [[Armor|Armor Lore]]: [[Resonant Fury Suit (Titan)]], [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/resonant-fury-gauntlets?highlight=Yul]'' </ref>
===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]].

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>

==Trivia==
*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.
