Outside the Last City, various Guardians also set themselves up as petty kings across [[Earth]]. Known as [[Warlord]]s, they forced villages to accept their "protection" in return for tribute and warred with each other for territory. Eventually, four warriors who fought against the Warlords' tyranny, [[Radegast]], [[Jolder]], [[Perun]], and [[Saladin Forge|Saladin]], joined together to form a force for good modeled after the knightly orders of old. They became the first [[Iron Lords]]. Over the years, the Iron Lords' numbers swelled into the hundreds as they defeated Warlord after Warlord and destroyed their Ghosts to ensure their executions were permanent. A number of Warlords, such as [[Felwinter]], even decided to join the Iron Lords' cause. When the Warlords were vanquished, the Iron Lords set about rebuilding human civilization, but this unfortunately led to their downfall. Hoping to harness the [[Golden Age]] technology known as [[SIVA]], they breached [[Site 6]] and awoke the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]], who activated SIVA as a defense mechanism. In the ensuing conflict, all of the Iron Lords perished but two: [[Saladin]], who took it upon himself to guard what remained of the [[Iron Lord]]'s legacy, and [[Efrideet]], who fled the destruction and hid far from civilization. Saladin sealed the [[Iron Temple]] as a monument to his fallen friends, and took up managing the [[Iron Banner]] tournament at the [[Tower]].
