After a one-night stand with Quintus Keo at a club, Tracci Zane left pregnant. She raised her daughter alone, but when the daughter was injured, Quintus' mother recognized a dragon clasp that revealed the child's true identity. Quintus tracked down the child and took care of both the mother and daughter. Throughout this period, Tracci faced frame-ups by Stary Hawn and entanglements with her family of origin, but Quintus was always by her side, protecting her.
