The Battle of Meridian

Armed with the deadly Soul Reaver and carving a path of war across Nosgoth, Kain forced one settlement after another to kneel to his will. His trusted legionnaires and soldiers followed him without hesitation, eager to put humankind in their place. But while most of the humans had grown meek since the Pillars crumbled, one man had risen to great power. Utilizing the olden legends of the Sarafan to build morale, this man raised a powerful resistant force - a whole new Sarafan Order - to battle against Kain's ambitions. And when Kain's triumph over Nosgoth was nearly complete, when he and his army marched upon the Nosgothian capital of Meridian to proclaim their final victory, it was this man who personally struck Kain down. Clad in golden armor and seemingly immune to the Soul Reaver's spirit-obliterating effects, this lone human cast Kain down and sent his armies scattering for fear of their own deaths.
