Yarwan Earthdew is a renowned scholar and esteemed wizard, known for his vast knowledge and mastery of the arcane arts. He is a respected figure in Glimmerdale, and his position at The Arcane Academy allowed him to provide a comfortable life for his family, including his wife and two sons, Flynn and his younger brother.
 
Yarwan had high expectations for his children, particularly Flynn, who he believed would follow in his footsteps and become a great wizard. However, Flynn's magical abilities did not manifest as expected. Despite his best efforts, Flynn struggled to cast even the simplest spells, causing frustration and disappointment for his father.
 
Determined to rectify the situation, Yarwan became increasingly strict with Flynn's training. He believed that Flynn's imbalance between Order and Chaos was the reason for his lack of progress in magic. Yarwan imposed a rigorous schedule on his son, devoting most of his time to studying and practicing magic. Flynn's childhood became a demanding and exhausting routine, with little room for personal exploration or freedom.
 
As the years passed and Flynn failed to make any significant magical breakthroughs, the strain between father and son grew. Yarwan's disappointment and frustration reached a breaking point, and he made the difficult decision to disown Flynn, casting him out of the family and declaring his younger brother as his successor.
