You know, the more I'm thinking about it, what is a dark elf from Menzo doing that far south? That is a city state in the north, far away from that area. But the spider Queen mentions it in one of her journals, so that is why I was thinking there might be a connection between the spider Queen and Minthara.

But if my theory is right, in order for the two to be connected, there would have to be some sort of portal linking that underdark City to the underdark in the game. Otherwise, it makes no sense. I don't know. Maybe it's just an assumption I made that the two are connected in some way. Fun to think about though
