Both of you were sold into slavery as children, you were very lucky, and you were bought out by an elf who was looking for apprentices to become mages. You and your brother are witches, trained in both witchcraft and murder. You often have to defend yourself from mage hunters, as they are exterminated by the king's orders. Your mentor's name is Helen Lovegut, and she is quite calm but cold. Now you and your brother are practicing fire magic.
