As transcribed from the books of the Cabilis Historians...
This was the time of the scattered and defeated Iksar Empire. The vile dragon Trakanon and his allies of scale had left the Empire in rubble and our people were divided yet again. The once grand city of Sebilis was claimed by the one who decimated it.
The remaining Iksar were scattered among the outlands of Kunark. Their places of refuge were now the dwellings of evil denizens. In the wilds, a few groups come to unite. One of these are the remnants of the Crusaders of Greenmist. They come to be lead by a powerful knight named Rok Nilok.
The army of shadowknights numbered in the hundreds. Within their ranks were a few mystics and legionnaires. The tribe named itself after their leader, "The Crusaders of Rok Nilok", and they would purge the lands of Kunark.
The Crusaders burned across the Dreadlands and death came quickly to those who dared stand in their way. They slew many giants and many goblins. There would be no prisoners or slaves. The empire would be rebuilt by the hands of the Iksar. All others would perish.
Karnor's Castle was the first major objective of the Crusaders. It had been taken over by a goblin clan. The goblins would soon find themselves under siege. For twenty days they held ground, but when a band of deserters fled, the Crusaders made a full siege.
A swift battle ensued and the castle was reclaimed.
The Crusaders then set their sights on the city of Cabilis. While the raid was being planned, Rok Nilok discovered something very evil. Nothing is known of his discovery. No record exists of its evil. All that is known is that Rok Nilok made a pact and soon would suffer for it.
During the battle for Cabilis, a strange rain fell which shrunk the Crusaders of Rok Nilok to the size of dolls and their heads were set aflame. Nilok's head burned red, and the goblins squashed the would be emperor and his minions.
