According to the book, Jakery was the eldest among his three siblings and was born to a family of scholars. The ideology of his father and mother was a bit different than most of the people of this world. When Jakery was born, magic was already very popular in this nation. But there was also a cult who hated magic and thought that it was work of the devils which was bad for humans.
This whole cult had disappeared long time ago but when Jakery was born, this cult was very active and had quite a few members. Unfortunately Jakery's father and mother were also active followers of the cult.
