Once upon a time there was a drow lived in the Menzoberranzan. His name was Vornerin, and he belongs to house Frerret.
One day hostile house Melrahel attacked house Frerret, and attack was failed. Vornerin abducted a newborn baby - youngest daughter of Melrahel house - from its home, but he was wounded on his face, he lost his left eye.
When Vornerin back home, he became conscious that now he is maimed, so why he haven't right to live in the Underdark.
His elder sisters, priestess of Lloth, took control on his mind, and conducted Vornerin to alter. Drow prepeared to be sacrificed. Baby lay near him, she must be killed too.
But Vornerin overcame mindcontrol, casted sphere of darkness (I'm not sure in right translate of this spelld), snatched baby and tried to escape city. Vornerin mounted on hid riding lizard and disappeared in tunnels of Underdark. Even he ceased sound of chase, drow couldn't stop. His lizard fell on one's back, his eyehole bleeded and hurt, but Vornerin tried to surface. He knew that several years ago another drow leaved Underdark and lives at surface. Last bit of strength he crept, embracing baby.
He didn't know how long he moved, but in one moment he sensed unknown slight smell. After few minutes he was ant surface.
He saw such he had never seen before. It was starry moonless night at the end of Elven forest. Vornerin looked at baby, at her face and only just now noticed, that she was blind.
"We both deprived of right to live in the Underdark, maybe we can live there?.." - whispered young drow and died away. Baby started to cry, but drow couln't hear her.
But somebody else heared crying. A group of forest elves surrounded drow. Vornerin came to consciousness, opened his healthy eye and gazed on elves.
- Who are you? - asked one of them on drowish. - And why are you there?
- I'm Vornerin Frerret. Please! Save the girl, Erelafay, in the name of your gods! She's hungry and need help, please, save baby!.. - Frerret gave crying baby to elves.
Forest elf told something on his language to his companions, and another two took baby.
- Now, I'm ready, - said Vornerin resolutely.
- Ready for what? - asked elf, who gived arrangements.
- For death, I mean...
- We don't intend to kill you, - answered pale-eared elf wonderingly, and gave new arrangements to other elves.
They disarmed drow, helped him to stand up and led him to elven settlement.
Vornerin was amazed of environment of elven life, as he knew since childhood that elves are very angry and evilish and must be killed.
At first he was bringed to healer, who cleaned wound on his eye. Vornerin noticed, that young elven lady breastfed Erelafay, and relaxed. Elves gave him some fruits and meat, and leaved him to rest.
Few hours later elves led drow to the Council of Elders, where he told his history to elders. They deliberated and decided to allow drow live there with elves.
- You told you want to forget your past life, so you need to obtaind a new name, - said elven elder. - I name you Verloren. On one of the human languages it means 'lost'. Now you are lost in your life, and I hope, I believe, you will find youself.
Since then two drows lives with elves...

A good story, but you need to work on your grammar a bit. That will make it easier to read.
