History
Van Jushu, was the youngest of the brothers, just older than Shallan. He was raised to Asha Jushu when his father declared Helaran disinherited. [3] As consequence of his gambling he arrived at his house drunk and in a very bad shape. This included dinners this father hosted with other lighteyes. [6]
He was supposed to check over the Davar lands. However his vice and debt went out of control. The culprit of this came when three men went to his father asking to pay the debt on his behalf and receiving a negative. The men, upset took him and beat him. Shallan convinced both Balat and Wikim to give her their knives and along with her necklace went to buy him back. Though she only accounted for half his debt (20 emerald bromes per knife and ten for the necklace), her cleverness and compassion towards her brother was rewarded with his release and her necklace.[7] After that event, Jushu went back to his gambling, though he was smarter about it. Shallan still considered him “a mess”. [7]
He was with Balat on the day he planned to run away with Eylita. Along with Wikim, he stayed at the door of the feast hall while Father and Balat argued. They ran in when his father went to the floor paralyzed thinking he was dead. He found the soulcaster after looking into his pockets and considered his father was doing blasphemy. He just stepped back when they found he was still alive and left Shallan to finished the job. [5]
After his father death, and while Shallan tried to steal Jasnah's Soulcaster, Jushu helped Balat with by selling their possessions and bringing the money back home. His old habbit of gambling helped him “mask” the reason behind the selling. [8]
