Knighthood

The Knights of Blackwood were founded in 994 by (then) Archduke Nigel to protect the lands and nation of Blackwood. The Knighthood was publicly disbanded by Nigel in 1009. The dissolution was immediately refuted by Sir Dark and Sir K, who worked to regrow the knighthood into what it is today.
