Huna was one of the confidants and companions of the legendary Pelinal Whitestrake. Huna lived in the early First Era and was originally a Nedic slave of the Ayleid overlords who ruled over their human subjects at the early years of the First Era. As a slave, one of Huna's duties was collecting grain for Ayleid masters. At some point, during, or before the Alessian Slave Rebellion Huna was liberated by Pelinal and given freedom. Huna decided to join the rebellion and was trained to become a hoplite.[1]
Eventually, the relationship between Huna and Pelinal possibly transcended the one of a liberator and liberated,[1] to that of lovers.[UOL 1] Although Pelinal was by some legends lover of Alessia,[2] the Song of Pelinal states that Pelinal loved Huna well, "he had raised up from a grain-slave and loved well."[1]
Huna fought alongside Pelinal and other rebels, until Huna died by an arrow of Celethel the Singer in 1E 242[3][4] or 1E 243.[1][5] Huna's death was a catalyst for Pelinal's madness. Once Huna died Pelinal would descend into several flights of madness during which he cut vast swathes in mindless fury to avenge him, destroying many Ayleid cities including Narlemae and Celediil,[1] as well as slaughtering the innocent Khajiit he mistook for Elves until he was banished at the Sunspire by Alkosh.[6][7]
