Yunfah is an honorspren who has been delaying the choice to take a new bond. When Syl and Kaladin give him an ultimatum, he agrees to try bonding with Rlain, opening the door to a new commitment after his hesitation. He is remembered as a tiny, long-bearded figure reclining upon a cloud, more apparition than solid being.
Description
Yunfah takes the form of a tiny elderly man with a long beard. He appears reclining on a small cloud, and his figure has no real substance, giving him a wispy, insubstantial presence. No particular clothing, hair color, eye color, or other facial features are described.
