To the Elves of Laurelin and within its forests,
To the Orcs and across the sea of sands,
To the Dwarves and inside their massive quarries,
To Mankind of Oren and to their men coming of age,
So arrogantly have men, suckled to the tune of hierarchical overtures speaking to them, informing them they will have a vast power upon coming to age. These men have caused rifts dividing all races between each other and themselves, such a unneeded aspect to the lives on Aegis when the times of plague, sinister acts, and massacres have been issued by the Undead. This Order, the very core of this Order is to unite the many races and ethnic lines to enjoin Good and forbid Evil to be spread across Aegis, to shun the arrogance that cleaves the communities in twain as men believe they are powerful enough separated to do what only men united can truly do.
This Order knows what is necessary and what must be done to ensure a prosperous Aegis can be evolved from the current feuds and issues that plague the world. This Order, not revealing their name to the common people recognize secrecy as the cloak that can protect their beginning marks made within Aegis's history. One can perhaps acquire about the Order from any soldier with the black cross upon his chest.
