| - In the long, turbulent history of the Soul Society, rebellions and treason are not uncommon. One such event happened thousands of years ago, when humanity was still young. Dissillusioned by the leadership and some questionable moral decisions, and tired by the strife between noble houses, a rebellious undercurrent was forming. Led by 3 captains and some of their subordinates it was growing daily as malcontents, the poor, the scorned and the powerless flocked to it. Soul Society decided to make the first move and neutralize the threat before it could materialize. Potential traitors were cut on the spot as the shinigami were mobilised. However, thanks to a warning of the imminent attack, a large number of "rebels" managed to escape. They left false clues that left the Soul Society believing they traveled to the the europeian region in the real world. In reality they were hiding in the remote places of Soul Society, gathering what resources and strength they could. For years shinigami forces searched across europe, but without success; so they inevitabely started to look elsewere. Knowing they can't stay hidden so close to their enemy forever, the rebels again placed false information, this time placing them on the other side of the world. As soon as the shinigami re-directed their search efforts, the survivors fled to the one place thier enemy already scoured - europe. There they set up a new home, forming a town of their own called Avalon and creating a new society. Angry and dissilusioned, the three captains and their followers discarded their haori's and many other trapings and traditions linking them to Soul Society. Instead, they started to mirror their new homes - the shinigami donned armor and taken up knightly virtues, and called themselves the Soul Knights from that moment on.
