Umbriel Crisis
Slyr warned Phmer that Annaïg was going to steal the ninth savor. After the day Annaïg supposedly stole the savor, Phmer and her assistants went to Toel's kitchen to accuse her. Intovar and Yeum were present when Annaïg entered Toel's balcony. Phmer used an insect-like creature to detect the ninth savor's scent, but instead of pointing at Annaïg, he flew to Slyr's dress. Annaïg had synthesized the ninth savor on her own, and she had hidden a vial filled with it in Slyr's dress. Everyone blamed Slyr, and Phmer took possession of her.

After Toel's death, Lord Irrel met Intovar and Yeum to discuss their possibilities to win Lord Rhel's contest. As Toel's second in command, Intovar answered Lord Rhel's question, but he killed Intovar for not giving a straight answer. Yeum told Irrel that they couldn't win the contest without Toel. However, Annaïg stepped forward and told Lord Irrel that they could win. After Irrel was gone, Yeum accused Annaïg of sentencing them to death. Annaïg told her that if they followed her orders, they would win, and she would be named the new chef of the kitchen. Yeum protested arguing she was the most senior cook, but she finally agreed to follow her lead.

Yeum advised Annaïg to delegate duties on other cookers. She was a good chef, but she couldn't do it all by herself. Yeum proposed Annaïg to help her with her task in exchange of keeping her as her underchef. She also asked Annaïg if she had killed Toel, but Annaïg didn't admit it had been her. Yeum revealed that she would have nothing but her admiration if she had done so. After winning the contest, Yeum followed working for Annaïg. She helped her prepare the meal for Lord Umbriel. Yeum informed Annaïg that Fhena had sneaked into the kitchens with a knife to kill her.

When Annaïg poisoned the trees of Umbriel, Mere-Glim entered Annaïg's kitchen to ask her to stop the poison. Yeum and other armed cookers tried to stop him, but Annaïg threw a vial that poured a yellow gas that made Yeum and the other cookers collapse.
