“Where there is light, shadows lurk and fear reigns
Yet by the Blade of Knights, Mankind was given Hope”
“For thousands of years, mankind has been under attack by an ancient race of demons, nightmarish creatures that feed off the darkness in men's souls and enter our world seeking bodies to possess. Against these Horrors, the human race has just one hope: the enchanted weapons and armor of the Makai Knights, a secret legion of warriors, priests and magic users who stand as humanity's last line of defense.”
