Biography
In March 2553, she "welcomed" the captured Jul ‘Mdama to the facility.

At some point she visited Jul in his cell accompanied by an armed guard. She explained to him why the sky was blue in the shield world, about Rayleigh scattering. She informed him of the Jiralhanae uprising on Sanghelios and of how Avu Med 'Telcam knew who was dealing him arms and that they intended to wipe out the Sangheili. When Jul complained about the food, he asked her to get him Irukan, the Kig-Yar name for a Sangheili grain that the Kig-Yar grew. She noted that his children would miss him, when he corrected her by informing her that Sangheili did know their fathers, she countered that while the children didn’t know their father, the father must know children, if the bloodlines weren’t managed they’d be inbred. As she left she said he can be useful to her by just being himself.
