Yanade is a historical figure of the Riders and Yanadlings. He was one of Hyalor's followers when he bargained with Raven and became the founder of Hyaloring shamanism. The Yanadlings, former Hyalorings from Nameforgot's clan who abandoned the gods and deal only with spirits, are named after Yanade.
