| - August - October 2007 After leaving the Imperial Military Union after a conflict with the leadership a couple of months earlier, Lewenhaupt got in touch with another former leader of the Union, Ogodai, also known as Zadevski. Lewenhaupt and Zadevski decided they wanted their own alliance, and started working on somewhere in august. The Order was born, with Zadevski as the Grandmaster, supreme leader of the Order. During this first month, a lot of affairs we're discussed, even a possible treaty between the Order and an old friend, the Norden Verein. A treaty that was signed a couple of weeks later. But Lewenhaupt noticed a drastic change in Zadevski's mood. His enthousiasm for the Order had been replaced by bitternes and carelesness. Zadevski had hoped that the Order would grow explosively fast under his command, but with the first month nearing its end, little had been achieved and growth was slow. Even the arrival of another old Union friend, Wizzy, seemed pointless. Wizzy, a large and strong veteran, was active, ready and willing to start training and aiding the handful of recruits, he was brought in and instructed by Lewenhaupt. Early in September, Zadevski and Lewenhaupt had a discussion. Zadevski as Grandmaster decided that the Order would be disbanded and that all members would join another group. Zadevski's plan was to join this group, infiltrate it's government, and eventually - take over control. Lewenhaupt, who had been working dilligently on all affairs of the order, was dissappointed and angry with Zadevski. On one hand, he had built the order himself so it would be a shame to throw away all the work he had put into it, on the other, Zadevski had the right and power to make the decision to disband the Order. So, he waited and plotted. On the 15th of September, after the Unjust War had started, Zadevski decided that the time had come, disbanded the Order. Lewenhaupt, together with Wizzy, took control over the membership, and restarted the alliance. Effectively creating a second Order of the Sword with Lewenhaupt as Grandmaster. Lewenhaupt quickly notified the Norden Verein about the affair, and Zadevski was removed from their embassy. Zadevski, who was furious, demanded the destruction of the Order's home, and the disbanding of its forces. Lewenhaupt refused and declared Ogodai to be an enemy of the Order of the Sword. An Order that stands till this very day. As new leader of the Order, Lewenhaupt was immidiately thrown before the lions. War. As newest defacto member of the Hanseatic League, he promised the Norden Verein, even before he was grandmaster, that even though his force was small, the Order would fight on their side. A promise, as all promises made by the Order, must be kept in the name of honour and respect to the gods. As in the eyes, breaking a promise is the worst of crimes, worse than treason. The promise was kept, and the small army of the Order marched into battle alongside the strong Nordlanders. Enemies from the RnR and Goons were attacked, and fought in bloody battles. Lewenhaupt himself held his ground and took many lives. It was at this time that another great name in the history of the Order first appeared. Hormones. At the time of the War he was only a young and inexperienced member, recruited by Lewenhaupt only a week or two before the fighting started. Yet, during the war he grew from one of the eleven recruits, to becoming the right hand of the Grandmaster. After the war was declared a victory, Wizzy and Lewenhaupt began to send money to fix the damages of war. The financial program that was started here, a copy from Lewenhaupt's financial programs at IMU, would pave the way for OTS economic policies for the next 6 months.
