After several defeats and years of bloody warfare with Lizardmen, racist sentiments ran in Coalhearth, much of it directed at the Toiden. Maidos was a close friend of Yaego, a Toiden refugee, since early childhood, and Yaego's stories deeply moved Maidos at a young age.

The same could not be said for Maidos' older brother, Einish, who was brash, proud, and prone to fits of spite and cruelty, These traits worried his father, the King, who found himself favoring the quiet and humble Maidos.
