Zeta Knights Prelude (1-1)

In an ancient battle a tribe that was loosing the fight suddenly found a banner, a flag that had been dropped from the sky.
Seeing this as a divine sign, the battle turned and the tribe was victorious.
Some recent historians has claimed that the flag really was the torn cape of the enemy warchief, and seeing their warchiefs cape being raised as a banner by the tribe, the enemy soldiers belived the fight lost and fled.
Hovewer it may be with this, ever since, the tribe has been known as the Knights, following their banner in belief that there is a divine meaning with their existance.
The golden cross on the blue background, for the knights is a symbol of the search for their Purpose and their Reason.
What Purpose is there for the Knights existance, and what is the Reason for this Purpose?

The Knights conquered every other tribe on their planet, searching out every part of it for a clue to their Purpose and Reason, but found none.

Since the banner came to the Knights no battle had been lost, this had made the Knights reckless but fearless fighters. They never backed down from a fight, no matter how bad the situation looked. On their planet this became known and all enemies that saw a Knight fled before fighting.
But in the future this could prove fatal, so far though their tactic had been successful.

In modern days the Knights had turned their quest towards the sky, where once the banner had come from.
For several years the big radio telescopes had searched the sky for any hint of the Purpose or the Reason. They had learned a lot, but not of the Purpose or the Reason.

This day however that was about to change.....
