Easy to spot, easy to terrify, the host that evolved to become what was the Winged Hussars were clad in armor from head to skirt. The silver and white wings they bore on their backs gave them the name, and as they rode out into the field, an army of thousands of such elegantly lethal horsemen was a sight that a man would either weep in joy or still in horror at. Either way, witnesses of its existence have always come to agree that no other host have exceeded its reputation. If a man was their ally, he was guaranteed to live to see victory. If a man was their enemy, he was guaranteed to die and see defeat.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQd2BBMjsd8
The military order of cavalrymen, consisting of lower rank nobles and youthful veterans who have partaken in over nine battles, earned their legendary status during the Golden Age of Lechen, a century of military domination and economic hegemony over the continent’s center and east. In the years following its founding, the host was led by a hetman, the chief of the hussars, who could never be replaced unless he perished in battle. They were respected so much so that not one was ever murdered outside of battle by a member of the order. It is not hard to see why.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZ3BvN595u
Their presence in the world went unchallenged for four hundred years with no other cavalry force as capable as the Winged were. Not even the cossacks of the steppes nor the cataphracts of the east could be compared to the prowess of they. But like a kingdom and its crown, the host did not last. The only battle that it was claimed that the hussars have lost saw the brave final charge and the massacre of its members. Those who miraculously survived fled and disappeared from the records. The last member of the host was killed at the Battle of the Rapids.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4AokBoStP
