Conundrum... an organisation no one with sane minds would even think about going against. And usually, no one did so either. They were the ones to choose their targets and eliminate them. To them, it didn't matter who they had to put an end to.
It could be a regional ruler or a peasant, so literally, anyone as long as they were deemed as a danger to the throne. Once the target had been marked, they would be taken care of... silently.
Most people thought their existence was just a myth, a hoax, a rumour. No one had ever seen them, so why should they believe in them? But the important thing was... just because they did not believe in them, didn't mean they didn't exist.
Well, anyway, it was in their interest that they weren't known among the general populous.
But who were these people? How much authority did they possess?
