Sapling Yew

"Sometimes I even curl up all cozy like and sleep next to his roots after I have a bad dream."

- Yew

Sapling Yew is a young girl who lives in Oasis in the year 2277.

Background
Yew was born in 2269. She likes to sneak into The Grove at night and listen to Harold talk about various things. Unlike the other Treeminders who seem to prefer to impose their own abstract interpretations on what Harold says, she seems to take the conversations she has with him at face value. Harold has explicitly stated that Yew is his favorite Treeminder.

Quests

 * Oasis: If you pass a Speech check with her before fulfilling Harold's death wish, she will give you Yew's bear charm when next you speak with her after resolution of the quest. Speaking to her with a high enough Speech skill or the Child at Heart perk will also allow you to learn that Harold is afraid of fire.


 * If the player becomes hostile with the NPCs in Oasis (by attacking them or Harold), Sapling Yew will vanish from the game.

Appearances
Yew appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes
Yew is the common name for genus Taxus, a type of tree. All of the human residents in Oasis have horticultural names.
