Yularen: Are you a warrior?

Thrawn: Yes, I worry about everything.

What I find fascinating about Yularen in this episode is that it completely shatters the idea that he's still fundamentally a good guy who happens to be on the wrong side. In TCW he's a heroic admiral fighting for justice. The assumption made is that he doesn't see the difference between the Empire and the Republic and is still trying to do what's right. We see him in Rebels and we can still assume he's misguided. But Andor shows a much darker side of Yularen. The Empire rules by fear and he is actively, willfully participating in it. The things he's saying are completely inexcusable. This scene proves he is not the same man he was during the Clone Wars.

Or, perhaps, quite possibly, this is who he's been the entire time.

The thing about Yularen is that he is a soldier.

Yes, he’s a reasonable soldier; he hates wasted lives, he detested the massacre at Batonn and the horrors of the Clone Wars, all he wants is a safe and peaceful galaxy.

But his desperate efforts to achieve that peace, with the strategies of the soldier, is what puts him squarely in the Empire’s camp.

In his speech, Yularen says, “This is why we work so hard when we are at peace.” He thought they were at peace, and now they are at war. Before, they were preparing, planning for a future conflict; today, that conflict is here.

He didn’t see the violence during that “peace.” He didn’t consider it a problem; it was simply the necessary precautions to ensure that peace. He doesn’t see the people suffering across the galaxy; he saw potential militants and helpless civilians, making the necessary sacrifices to Keep The Peace.

Now, to Yularen, they are at war. He knows what to do at war; call in the troops, crack down on dissidents, hunt down the enemy. He doesn’t see it as extreme or abusive; all’s fair in war, after all.

And that’s what makes Yularen a sympathetic Imperial in the Thrawn novels. And that’s what makes him the monstrous hand of the Empire in Andor, in A New Hope. He is a man who believes in peace, and will do anything, anything, to keep it.

It’s for the greater good, after all.

After the Andor seventh episode I can’t stop imagining how Partagaz and Yularen sit with cups of cafes and bagels somewhere after work and wash the bones of their smart foster children, who breaking all the rules. Well, like:

- Hey, what did your weird blue son do today? Because my diehard daughter Dedra dunked one more sexist in the dirt, I'm so proud of her🥺

The best oldies in the galaxy:>

Yularen Story

So, despite the holiday stuff and a bout with the stomach flu I finally completed this Yularen story I’ve been wanting to write ever since I watched Rebels. It does tie back into my big Kallus fic “We Regret”, but I have always been fascinated with how a man as decent and honorable ended up as head of the secret police for the Empire. this is a part of my exploration of that knotty question. You can find the story Here:
