They Were Reviled But...

How they have entered current memory
Per the user, is how they are now remembered
Some see them as saints who gave all for a cause
Others view them as a blight upon history
They and their order were killed and dismembered
As badly as they were slain, their history is deeply flawed
With deep mist and fog, their existence was a true mystery
The burning fires of their slaughter still have glowing embers
 They could not escape nobility's desire and gaping maw
Never allowing a challenger to exist
