Jane suggests: 1) Catseye. Sounds like a link to Yinkin to me, from Yelmalio's Orlanthi past. Perhaps you have to beat up an alynx and learn its secrets?
Jane also suggested:
1) Monrogh. How on earth you turn emulating him into a HQ I have no idea.
I'd turn this into something related to Yelmalio encountering his father Yelm and being accepted, since I believe that that would be one of Monrogh's key HQ in his life. So, go out in the desert and meet Yelm face-to-face. If you survive, then he has accepted you. An endurance march in full armour in Fire season in the daytime across the Long Dry should be a challenge and should also provide some fascinating visions/hallucinations to the participant.
