History
- "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely actors"
- -- Unknown, but probably some artsy elf.
In the reign of John Malregard, the Order Vigilant of Auros and His Most Virtuous Hundred was established in order that the blessed word of Auros might reach the heathens of ice-bound Niflheim. When the northern pagans proved violent and unreceptive to peaceful missionary work, the Mercian King granted the Order a royal charter ensuring their right to bear arms, to recruit Mercian knights to their holy work, and to possess themselves of such lands from the northern pagans as they could hold by their courage in battle and by the grace of Auros. They soon established an outpost in that remote land and constructed a great Northern Citadel.
Recently, the Virtuous Hundred faced a cataclysmic reversal of fortunes in its righteous crusade. The two documents written by members of the Order explain the current crisis that the Virtuous Hundred must overcome:
In short, the Virtuous Hundred must struggle to reclaim what it has carelessly lost: its land, its honor, and the Radiant Lord's divine favor. God wills it!
