So far we haven't heard anything about Bert's family, where he came from, where he was raised, or even if he has a family. I kind of have a feeling that Bert might be an orphan. Here are my top two theories.

1. Bert is an orphan and his parents either passed away or were killed by a predator like a hawk, eagle, or cougar which would explain his skittish, nervous behavior. Since they died he had to pretty much raise himself which would explain why Bert is a lot more resourceful and intelligent than Ivandoe. Since Bert was living alone in the kingdom he heard stories about a mighty warrior-prince by the name of Ivandoe and wants to become a "hero" just like him. (This would explain why Bert is Ivandoe's biggest and only fan). One day he overhears that the Prince is going on a dangerous quest to Eagle Moutain and decides to become the prince's squire since Ivandoe is his idol. ( Which would explain why Bert has a lot of knowledge about Ivandoe.)

2.  Bert has a mother and father but he also has three siblings. Bert has always been nervous and anxious compared to the rest of his siblings, therefore, they tease him for being "weak" and cowardly. One day Bert hears stories about an amazing warrior Prince by the name of Ivandoe and starts to idolize him since he is brave and heroic. One day Bert overhears that Ivandoe needs a squire to assist him on his heroic quest to Eagle Mountain. Bert volunteers to be a squire but his siblings still taunt and tease him believing that he is delusional. Bert eventually decides to run away from home to become a squire to the young Prince not only because Ivandoe is his idol but because he wants to prove to his family that he isn't a coward. I think this theory could be correct because the inro card has an image of what appears to be three small Bluebird chicks and one of them is running way. It also has an image of a nest with an egg in it and a broken egg. Now granted those could be random images but I think they could be foreshadowing. Not to mention Bert does know how to fly which means he had to be taught by some flying animal A.K.A his parents. Hopefully, they will tell us more about Bert's origins in the full series.
