When Yulian got poisoned by Librie and carried into desert by Pere who encountered Desert's Blade. Venersis let them go, despite having the chance to get rid of one of the biggest threats Shuaruri has faced. Slav thanked Venersis, thinking he spared them because of what Yulian did for Slav in Warrior Ceremony, however Venersis thought to himself "It's not for you".

#### Meina

Venersis is seen carving statues of Meina, he deeply regrets her death. Exact circumstances and extent of their relationship is currently unknown.

## History

Venersis is first seem solemnly fighting Demon Beasts with Desert's Blade - sent far from his tribe due to the young Glows dislike of him. He saves a warrior nearly crushed by a giant beast, easily severing its massive arm with one slash. After the battle, Venersis carves a statue of Meina while waiting for Desert's Blade to get ready, and they move to the next place. Sometime later Venersis is seen carving another statue of Meina. Sultan comes bearing a message of glow's recovery, calling Venersis and the Desert's Blades home.

Venersis returns to the Shuaruri tribe to find Madru Saba, his Glow, deathly ill. Madru called to him to his deathbed and apologizes for his weakness, and for what he has made Venersis do. He insists that Venersis inherit the position of Glow, instead of his own son, Ura Saba. Venersis is stunned by this decree however, and when Ura bursts in angrily and claims the seat of the Glow, Venersis is unable to stand up to Ura's goading and bitter resentment. Unwilling to fight Ura - who tells Venersis he can kill him if he wants, but is good for nothing else - Venersis quietly allows the new Glow to take over and throw him in a pit.

Despite the complete incompetence of Ura, Venersis respects his Glow absolutely, and only emerges from his confinement to fight when Ura has no other choice but to risk the Flowing Sand Oases. Venersis emerges into the fight while Pareia has a major advantage, and Yulian charges him, breaking formation, and costing Pariea their edge and halting the fight.

When discussing the next move with Yasash, Venersis is stunned that Yulian has become so powerful (having mistaken him for a Great Warrior). It also seems that Ura has demoted Venersis. The addition of Venersis is enough to completely change the flow of the battle, and a ceasefire is forced.
