Background
Montgomery was a poor hermit, and a well skilled woodsman. While wondering the forest during a cold Winter over one hundred and fifty years ago, he came upon a wounded pregnant doe surrounded by wolves, and saved it from them.

Kieran's Mother
Montgomery first encountered Kieran's mother when he was roaming the forest alone looking for food. Kieran's mother who was pregnant at the time had been surrounded by a pack of a hungry wolves, and Montgomery saved her by chasing the wolves away. He then tended to her injuries and let her go. Eventually a few days later he was visited by a Fae woman who turned out to be the Ruler of the Moon Court, and for his selfless act of saving her and her unborn baby, he was offered a place at the Moon Court as the captain of her guard, which Montgomery accepted.

Longclaw
Not much is known about their relationship, but they seem to be close friends given that they are the only remaining members of the Moon Court, and given that they both know about Kieran's curse and try to keep it a secret from you at first. When Sir Montgomery tells you about Kieran's mother, Longclaw takes you aside and says that because Sir Montgomery is old, he sometimes confuses his memories.
