I know many Hyur are taught from a young age, but with Makyn he grew up /not/ learning how to read. He was taught to count, but never to read. And up until recently he had been looking for a teacher (because he did find one) to teach him to read due to the voracious demands of having that crucial skill.
He just thought he was one of the only ones who didn't know how to read.
