Kenley, Trigg and Bryn are the third set of triplets for the Madigan family, born to the youngest of triplets (Slaney, Greer, and Egan) who were also born to the youngest of triplets (Rowan, Fergus, and Maella).

Cermait, one of the Leaders of The Council of Múin, selects the family lineage who will birth triplets and become the next generation of Caomhnóir.
How does one become a Caomhnóir?
The process of transformation is called the Athrú. With the power of the Draíocht surging through the body, it results in the person experiencing symptoms which mimic severe food poisoning or the flu. It is tradition that one does not experience the Athrú until they reach the age of eighteen and the process generally takes over fifty hours. But for the Madigans, the transformation came two days early and lasted a little over twelve hours.

Caelen was selected to be the Múin of Kenley, Trigg and Bryn. He came into existence, with full awareness and intelligence, the moment Kenley was conceived and her fate was sealed as being given the choise to become the next Caomhnóir. He has been connected to Kenley, Trigg and Bryn's Anams (souls) for their entire lives, granting him intimate knowledge of who they are.
