History
The Emperor's Soul
Zu is one of the guards ordered to bring Wan ShaiLu before the five arbiters. He shows a great dislike for Shai, promising that he'll eventually kill her[1] because he feels insecure about his failure in capturing her when she steals from the Rose Palace.[5] After she is shown the Emperor Ashravan, he is assigned to oversee the security of Shai's room. He is the only Striker who knows of Ashravan's injury and what the arbiters plan for Shai to do.[6] He personally guards the arbiters that come to visit Shai's room.[4][3]
Once Shai completes her work on the emperor's soul, Zu comes in her room, dismisses the guards inside, then tries to kill her. He manages to wound Shai with his sword but is stopped by the traps Shai set and falls unconscious. When he wakes up, he goes to the Bloodsealer and with the blood Shai left on his sword, they manage to track her again. This time, however, Shai easily bests him using her Shaizan Essence Mark. She breaks his wrist and six of his ribs. He is amazed at her ability.[2] She steals his tall, white, Ghurish warhorse to escape; it is worth more than a small house in some parts of the Rose Empire.[7]
