Within Calvarian space, near the western border with the Inter-Systems Commonwealth, there resides an anomaly. A small cluster of star systems that hold themselves independent of the Empire, despite resting well within its territory. This cluster - known as the Sovereign Sector - is home to an ancient and revered realm, known as Aldasveign. This planet was one of the very first to be discovered following human expansion from their homeworld of Terra Nova, though it was long forgotten through the passage of time and the events of the Cataclysm and the resulting Second Dark Age.
However, Aldasveign is unlike many other worlds. Though its terrain and geography is not unlike Terra Nova itself, the planet serves with distinction as being the home of the Knights of Aldasveign, the saviors of humanity. By the will of Yelandar and their devotion to upholding his holy tenets, the beings who compose the Order are unlike any seen across the stars. They are somewhat elusive, emerging only to negotiate between powers or to fight off an alien menace, and are never seen warring against humankind unless there is either a significant heretic presence or their own existence is threatened. Despite all this, the Knights have become widely revered across both Calvarian space and beyond.
Few know the truths behind the Knights of Aldasveign. What is clear is that they are not human, but not fully Valkyrie either. They are stronger, faster, and far more intelligent than any man, and the individuals within the Order are easily identified by their glowing eyes. The men and women of the Order hail from all peoples and nations across the stars, and all of them are dedicated to ensuring the survival of both humanity and the Faith. Some believe them to be Immortals, though this is mere rumor. Others believe them to be something else entirely. Regardless, the Knights have served all of humankind for over four thousand years, and they certainly show no signs of going away any time soon. When darkness rises, the Knights of Aldasveign shall be the first to respond.
