History[]
Founding[]
2000 years ago, a group of individuals (Tassel, Priestess, Logos, Zooous, Legeiel, and Storious) discovered a mythical land known as Wonder World. Choosing to use the newfound domain for the sake of humanity, it led to the creation of the Almighty Book that recorded everything known to man, later becoming crucial for keep the balance of the world. As such, the Sword of Logos was created with the first Master Logos (and his descendants) as its leader(s) to protect the Book from falling into the wrong hands. Despite the Book's good intentions to keep the world safe, Storious, Zooous, and Legeiel did not share the same sentiment and were corrupted by the book, turning them into Megid. As a safety precaution to prevent the Megid from taking the rest of its power, the Priestess split the Book's pages into the Wonder Ride Books while scattered across the world. While Tassel split the remaining parts of the book with the First Master Logos as three fragments and later created the first Seiken, the Kougouken Saikou, with Yuri having been its first wielder for some time.
The Book of Ruin[]
As the organization continued to grow, they eventually came into possession of the Book of Ruin. Soon, Bahato and a friend of both his and Yuri joined, and the Ankokuken Kurayami and Mumeiken Kyomu were created, both going into the possessions of Yuri and Bahato respectively. However the friend betrayed the organization and killed Bahato's family, in which Bahato succumbed into darkness and tried to steal the Book of Ruin. Ultimately, he was stopped by Yuri, who wielded both Kurayami and Saikou to seal Bahato away, where the book would be kept at the Southern Base.
Modern Times[]
By 2002, Isaac had been appointed as the current Master Logos while the roles of the Four Sages were created to help oversee organizational polices. With the organization growing larger, two separate branches were created to govern the many members, the Northern Base and the Southern Base. Isaac created Sophia, an artificial lifeform to lead the Northern Base in his absence. The Daishinji family had forged numerous man-made Seiken for the organization, with their most recent descendant Tetsuo Daishinji being active as the wielder of his own creation, the Onjuuken Suzune. Soon, the Wonder Ride Books found from all over the world became a primary source of power for each of the Seiken, allowing each wielder to become a Kamen Rider to more effectively defend the world from the Megid.

By 2005, Isaac became increasingly bored with the state of the world and wanted to break free of his family's duties, so he sought the Almighty Book to recreate it and discreetly eliminated the Sages to prevent them from vetoing his plans. He secretly formed an alliance with Storious, who in the last 2000 years had amassed an army, ready to attack at Isaac's command. Their plans were intercepted by the wielder of Kurayami at that time, Hayato Fukamiya, known as Kamen Rider Calibur, who received a vision of Isaac's coming plans to destroy the world and proceeded to confront his leader. Having fell corrupt to Isaac's manipulations, Storious' Megid was unleashed into the city as a distraction to allow Hayato to kidnap Luna, a girl whom Isaac believed was the reincarnation of the Priestess, one of the founders of the Sword of Logos from 2000 years ago. Having ignited the an all-out war, several incumbent Riders were dispatched to quell the chaos but either perished or now considered missing in action. Daichi Kamijo, a fellow member of the Sword of Logos and the Kamen Rider Saber at the time, fought to save Luna and Touma Kamiyama from Hayato, resulting in the disappearance of both Kaenken Rekka and Kurayami. With three Seiken now lost, it put Isaac's plans at a halt.
Return of Kaenken Rekka[]
By 2020, fifteen years after the war, multiple swordsmen were appointed as the new users of the Seiken while Isaac's cooperation with the Megid remained a secret. After Touma Kamiyama had then discovered the lost Kaenken Rekka and became the new Kamen Rider Saber, Isaac became ecstatic that his plans were able to resume after so long and kept a close eye on the young man as he joined the Northern Base. Reika Shindai, a representative from the Southern Base, was sent to recruit Touma into the South. As Touma refused, it drew the attention of Yuri, who had been in hiding for over a millennia and came out to protect Touma. To completely dismantle the Northern Base, Isaac kidnaps and locks Sophia at the Southern Base while most of Touma's former allies from the North now work for the South.
With entire organization now under Isaac's full control, it prompts Touma to recreate what was left of the Northern Base. In time, Kento Fukamiya, the son of Hayato, had discovered and encountered his father's murderer, Daichi Kamijo. In what seemed to be his death, it prompted Touma and his newly formed team who retook the Northern Base after its vacancy, to search the South for answers. Isaac having discovered this, led Touma to discover the forbidden power of Primitive Dragon, which sent Touma on a spiral. Kento having returned from his dark journey, had become drawn to the power of Kurayami in an act of familial vengeance for his father and continued the inherited mission of sealing the Seiken, not knowing that it was part of Isaac's plans.
War for Wonder World[]
With most of Touma's allies having joined his team, as well as all the Seikan under one roof, Isaac used the fragments of what he had of the Almighty Book and dispatched his enforces Reika and Ryoga Shindai to seize the North and their Seiken. To accelerate the process, he releases Bahato from the Book of Ruin to also subdue the North members as quickly as possible for his ritual. Ultimately it is foiled, but Isaac harnesses the Almighty Book to become Kamen Rider Solomon. With the Shindai siblings now disillusioned of Issac, they defect from the South and join Touma. With the help of the rest of the Northern Base, Touma reaches his full potential and creates the Haouken Xross Saber to overwhelm Isaac completely. With Isaac now helpless, Storious betrays and kills him.
With Storious now armed with a portion of the Almighty Book, he began his plan to destroy both Earth and Wonder World by reviving the Four Sages, who were now under Storious' mind control. After killing Tassel and destabilizing the barrier between both worlds, he erected a giant tower in the middle of the city, now surrounded by an army of Shimi. The remnants of both the Northern and Southern Base swordsmen, now united as Kamen Riders, storm the tower to stop Storious. While they are successful, Touma unfortunately disappears due to his new role as Guardian having replaced Tassel, while the rest cleanse the organization that Issac had stained.
Reformation[]
One year later in 2022, the organization announced that they were abolishing the Master Logos position to form a united council instead.

Notes[]
- Logos likely refers to the titular mode of persuasion in writing (Ethos, Pathos, Logos). Logos uses logical reasoning and evidence to persuade the audience.
- The Sword of Logos' emblem contains the Seiken letters for S and L inside a book, the title of the organization in Seiken scripture, and the entire Seiken alphabet around it.
- Northern Base members wear blue uniforms while Southern Base members wear red uniforms, which is a reference to both polar sides of a magnet. Strangely however, each base's uniform color is actually associated with the opposite polar instead.
