Many, many years ago a marriage was arranged to unite the Kingdoms of Gaillard and Puglia. The marriage was to join Prince Johnathan of Gaillard and Princess Maria of Puglia. Everything was going perfectly, the bride and groom loved eachother and the ceremony went off without a hitch. But soon this happy time was marred by a tragedy, the couple disappeared on their honeymoon. Their bodies were discovered soon later and around the site were scraps of Gaillard flags and pieces of Puglian armor. The two nations declared war on one another, blaming the other for the death of their oldest children. Gaillard was not doing well in the battle. Until two people, a brother and a sister, set up a school for warfare and magic. This school did extremely well, churning out well-trained warriors that people came to call the Silver Knights for the blue and silver insignia they bore. The tide of the battle was slowly turning in Gaillard's direction as more and more people joined the Silver Knights Institute. People started to believe that they might actually win and morale was high. Then Puglia created their own elite force, the Dark Warriors, and the two battle more that any other force in the two kingdoms.
