Biography

Season one

Recruiting Quill

Quill, now without a job after failing to secure Jonah Breakspear, is living on the Row, scavenging for food. He stumbles onto a food kitchen for his kind, Fauns. Cabal offers him food and the Cyphers. Quill returns to Cabal after having read the Cyphers. Quill wants to know everything.

A large group of religious Faun, among them are Cabal and Quill, march the Row, striking themselves with whips and demanding that the "Hidden One" show his face.

Cabal, Quill, and the rest of their religious group continue their march through the Row, calling out the Hidden One and asking that it reveal itself all the while whipping themselves, leaving fresh, bloody wounds. A Burguish man taunts them for their belief and then proceeds to attack one of them, whipping him mercilessly. Quill wishes to bring a stop to the beating, but Cabal advises him against it and point to this moment as an example. The humans will never accept them, and therefore they can make no peace with them.

Cabal shows Quill an inscribed tablet brought in from Puyan by the prior who founded their lair. He salvaged it from the great Hoff when the Burguish army razed it. He wanted to make sure the old ways would never be forgotten. Cabal tells Quill that the Hidden One brought him to them because he had a purpose for Quill. But, first he must prove himself. The man from the march who attacked one of them is brought in and pushed to his knees while his hands remain restrained. Quill takes the inscribed tablet and beats the man over the head with it.

Assassinating the Chancellor

Quill joins Cabal’s extremist group, and under his command, attacks and kills a fae servant of the Breakspears and takes his uniform.

Following Absalom Breakspear's death, all the fae folk of the Burgue are sequestered to the Row and placed in a concentration camp. Cabal is among them.
