Dark Souls 2 Lore: Royal Knights of Drangleic

This Dark Souls 2 Lore video primarily covers the rise and fall of the Old Iron King as well as the pursuits of the Knights Sir Alonne, Raime the Black Raven and Velstadt, The Royal Aegis. Some of the lore chosen is speculation, some is not. The Legends of Drangleic Dark Souls Lore videos series also tend to attempt to enter the psyche of the character the video is focusing on; imagining the Lore of Drangleic from their perspective. So if some of the lore seems inaccurate it may be due to the fact that it IS false because the subject of the video (In this case Alonne, Raime and the Old Iron King at times) is misinformed or does not know the whole truth.
