ELDER SCROLLS. yuvon is an oddity. he has the intelligence and ability to speak like sapient being. in his elder scrolls verse, this is because of volitha murdering a fellow apprentice while out on the task of obtaining their own griffon eggs; soul trapping him. covered it up, of course, by making it look like the he perished at the hands...talons of the many griffons guarding the nests. wasn't questioned as sometimes those things happened....such were the risks in becoming a welkynar. when she returned to cloudrest, she began experimenting on the egg she obtained and ended up binding the soul in the gem to the egg which merged the two souls. while not entirely sure of the results she would get, she was at least hoping for a stronger or more intelligent griffon ( perhaps even one able to use magic ).her admiration for the welkynars led to a bit of paranoia and their history with the sloads made her worry something would happen again. not to mention, the thalmor trying to sway the welkynars under their direction but the order refusing as they were not a political force. she feared for their continued existence and the fate of the isles if they lost their staunch protectors. when he hatched, nothing seemed different or altered so volitha feared it was all for naught. as the months weren’t by, however, he started to make noises not heard in fledglings before. it almost sounded like the babbling of an infant. this babbling turned into actual words as he got older.this development brought questions and suspicions from the elder welkynars of the order. in all the years, they had never heard of such a thing occurring on mere happenstance. they felt there was more to it than what volitha was telling them. one day when she was out teaching yuvon, they searched her quarters for anything she might have wrote down or left. hidden in a hollowed out section of her bedpost, they found a journal detailing an experimental ritual that involved binding a being's soul to a gryphon egg; merging them. her journal included a footnote apologizing to corellon, the fellow recruit who they thought had perished trying to obtain his own egg. it seemed to be an admission of guilt.when she returned, they confronted her with the findings and volitha begged them to see what this could do for the security and future of their order and the isles. it would make their gryphons stronger, she argued. the thalmor -- nobody -- would be able to intimidate them anymore. though, they felt like she crossed a line and could not justify her murdering a fellow recruit to achieve such a goal. they meant to imprison her either in the aerie or by turning her over to the cloudrest guard. she, however, had different ideas and told yuvon to fly. when he did, she made her own escape and managed to commandeer a small vessel docked at the port.with her fleeing by sea and yuvon following by air, they hoped to at least get some distance but the ship was no match for the speed of their griffons.

dragon age. volitha was an apostate that ran from her circle. taking the pass through the frostbacks, a slight deviation from it caused her to accidentally discover a long since abandoned griffon nest. all the eggs were frozen or smashed except for one. while it was frozen, it’s shell was still intact. her time in the circle was spent reading tales of the grey wardens and their griffon mounts, among other things. to actually hold a griffon egg in her hands? she couldn’t leave it behind.eventually, she joined the grey wardens but kept the egg to herself. it became a source of obsession for her. always on her mind. even while climbing the ranks, finding a way to hatch a griffon was at the forefront.
she began pouring over books and consulted spirits. the only solution she could see, however, was through the use of blood magic ( or maybe she only thought so once she began to hear her calling ). part of her own blood was used in the ritual, some wasn’t. a warden recruit was sacrificed. blood wasn’t the only ingredient to her plan, either. the spirit of wisdom volitha consulted to guide her through the steps was the final piece to ensure the success. she felt the ritual alone wasn’t going to be enough so she bound the spirit to the egg; twisting it into that of pride in the process. the merging was nearly absolute despite this and the two consciousness combined to form one. yuvon hatched not long after, providing her efforts were not in vain. he seemed in no way altered at first. a normal griffon fledgling by all accounts until he grew older and he began to form words…
