  Order of the Hart Knight 
  The Knights of the Hart were founded a very long time ago, an exact date known to 
  few.  The Knights of the Hart were created to serve the needs of the lords of Furyondy, 
  Highfolk, and Veluna.  Although the Knights of Furyondy are the largest of the three 
  orders, they lost many in the war with Iuz and now seek to recruit new knights without 
  lowering their standards; hence the encouragement given to new squires.  All Knights 
  of the Hart must swear their undying loyalty to protect the lands of all three nations.   
     Every single Knight of the Hart commands respect and it is rightly justified.   They 
  serve as arbitrators of justice in the lawless areas they patrol and over time have 
  become involved in battles of politics not just war.  Knights of Furyondy, along with 
  other nobles, form the “Knightly Conclave” in Chendl.  This conclave is a semi-
  parliamentary group with considerable influence with King Belvor IV.  The Knights 
  are active with the Order’s ultimate goal to ultimately defeat Iuz.  The knights realize 
  the severe importance of their allies and have offered considerable aid to Highfolk and 
  Veluna in the past.
