=== The Eidolon Silver Force ===
The history of the Maze Military is intricately tied to that of the Mazes in general, having existed in some form since the beginning of [[History of the Mazes|Era 5]].
The predecessor to the modern Military was the '''Eidolon Silver Force''' or '''ESF''', founded in E5-122 shortly after [[Neo Khazrun]] was settled from the ruins of the medieval town of [[Khazrun]]. Originally, the ESF was Neo Khazrun's Town Security force. However, inspired by the many documents and books within the ancient medieval library, settler, and first Neo Khazrun mayor '''William Eidolon''' wished for more, viewing his town, his people, and his forces as destined for a greater status. Over the years that followed, the Eidolon Silver Force grew out of its original role of local law enforcement, becoming a separate entity and the first, fully-fledged military unit of the Mazes since the downfall of the Silverlight Kingdom.
