The Order of Sileo (TOS) is a small alliance on the Maroon team. It was officially founded on January 14^th, 2015.

History

After the forced disbandment of their home alliance due to a plague of internal corruption, the founding nations of the Order were in need of shelter and a new home. They took their war torn nations to the kind lands of The Sandstorm Confederacy, where they began to rebuild after the devastating war to protect their previous home. They were scattered and weakened, but in their hearts there was always one thing they knew; they would continue fighting for justice, as they had the fire in there hearts to rebuild, and create something even stronger than before.

By the Sword of Saint Andrew and the grace of the mighty Phoenix Symodan, members of the order decided to found the Order of Sileo.
