Background
The two brothers were born and raised in Vaasa, at the rugged Galena Mountains. Ivan and Pikel fought alongside elves in the Shilmista Forest against the orcs and goblins. In 1370 DR they set out from Carradoon to attend the coronation of King Bruenor Battlehammer in Mithral Hall, far from their place of residence in Spirit Soaring, the home of Cadderly Bonaduce the high priest of Deneir (the god of Knowledge and Invention) and his wife Danica and their 2 children. They were captured by the moon elves of the Moonwood (specifically Innovindil and Tarathiel) and held captive for a few days. On determining that they meant no harm to the elves or the forest, they were released and proceeded to Mithral Hall.
