The Order of the Yasuragindou

The Order of the Yasuragindou (黒の騎士団, Yasu no Kishidan - Lit. The Order of the Peace Requiem) are a group of vigilante rebels who fight against the Shadow Empire. Created by Suzaku Hyuga, disguising as Annon, they define themselves as "allies of justice", and differentiate themselves from terrorists groups such as the Shadow Liberation Front, who take hostages and kill civilians, though this may simply be a tactic to increase public support and recruitment. Most of members are former Guardians members and Taisinkoha, those who followed Seireitou's teachning of the peace requiem, many of whom have defected from other insurgent groups, though many other peoples, even Shadow Empire natives may be found among their ranks. They use a white bird-shaped symbol, on a dark background, as their symbol.
