Yes, if there were Knights, Necropolis would be much stronger. In the third part, there were Knights, and they really helped Necropolis, but now there aren't any :(
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.
G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal
