History

D'gu lives a simple life of a thrall farmer on Urk-Hiem. He is also the spiritual leader of his kut, having taken on the role to guide his fellow Domics to find their way in the new centuries before them. Although being illiterate himself, D'gu has taken to guiding a few younger persons in transcribing their oral traditions into written works to preserve the old stories and wisdom.

Secrets

D'gu has a strong desire to see his people free to practice their own cultural traditions, but also accepts that much has been lost, or mixed with that of their oppressors. He is circumspect regarding such politically charged issues, and protective of the secrets he has been privy to regarding a few local religious sites of his ancestors. He is personally aware of no less than three surviving Domic historical and religious sites near the kut he calls home. He will visit such sites with trusted members of the community to study and preserve them, as fragments of the living history of their people.
