Raised in the northern districts of Avalon, Alvean came from a minor noble family which sought his education over all else to give him the future he desired. Studying at the prestigious Academy of the Realms, Alvean pursued Gyleon Moor as a fly on the wall in the academy's library before his potential was noticed by the eccentric professor. Brought under her wing as understudy, Alvean learned a great deal of the Continuum Crystal Cosmology which the professor had begun to discover as of recent revelation.
