Traveling the surface more Qu has gained the trust of ralphie over the course of many adventures. On a slope overlooking a river on one of their woodland adventures ralphie inquired about the drow out of curiosity. Overwhelmed by the trust ralphie has shown him Qu decided to reveal some information about the drow and asked him a series of questions. Satisfied he would not be killed he revealed himself to be, indeed, drow. Ralphie seemed not to be bothered by this as he seen his actions not his race as the tell of his character. Still struggling to adjust to the surface and make allies Qu found himself in an interesting position on an adventure to the underdark to assist the temple of lolth. Having met the zolands previously and made allies with them he agreed to come aid the adventure but kept his identity hidden while within the city as he is a fugitive. Coming back down did not fill him with the warmth of home one would expect returning to their birth place. Instead it filled him with a sense of dread and remorse for not having left sooner. Seeing the workings of his people again reminded him of exactly why he left in the first place and solidified his steadfastness to commit himself to a life on the surface. Enemies below and above he walks a careful dangerous path. Struggling to make friends and yearning to show his face and be accepted. The reality he has resigned himself to is that day may never come and he must choose his allies wisely if he is to survive. Planning to continue his deeds and look forward to a path that may one day grant him redemption his teachings below has taught him to always remain on guard. Torn in many directions he hones his skills and continues his search for a purpose on the surface other than mere survival.
