The Species developed into 2 subspecies as one preferred to remain in the light of day as the other the cover of night. they use there nomad was to stay as much in there new element as possible. That is until they were found by the Tuleon remnants that fled from earth's first assault. They were quickly subjugated but they never forgot their origins or religion. The race spent many long years watching peacefully learning what they could till they eventually got a chance to acquired freedom once again. Whole Slave Sectors arranged to escape though they could not be free on there own homeworld But with new access to space and more planets the nomadic nature called to them to explore the great unknown even if it meant death.
They eventually found humans seeking no Quarter they were lead to the newest Human Planet of Gaia. Where they could be watched and maybe just maybe live in peace. The Quil traded the information of the Tuleons as well as there homeworlds and in time the Quil were trained to fight but humanity again exchange for Tuleon flight patterns. The Quil Surprised humanity despite their seemingly harmless disposition and monk like ways, They were quick learners and graceful fighters.
