Against the Darkness is a Mission in King Arthur: Knight's Tale, this mission tasks the player to help the villagers to protect their settlements from the brigands. Missions are various tasks that a player can acquire and enlist throughout the game, missions are usually unlocked through the main campaign, during a series of events, or are given by certain NPCs. Completing a quest also grants various rewards that can aid the player throughout their journey.
Out in the wilderness, there are still some flickering lights that battle the enroaching darkness. I've heard about the lonely settlements in the woods trying to fight the marauders on their own.
An admirable, but foolish act of heroism. They are weak and they will perish, unless I help them out. As I need villages to rebuild the realm, this might be their lucky day.

Against the Darkness Walkthrough
For this mission, it's best that you have two Marksman heroes in your party such as Sir Yvain and Lady Dindraine, and have Sir Mordred and your strongest Champion hero. This will turn the tide of battle in your favor since you have two long-range heroes who can take out enemies from afar. Upon starting, go straight, and check the corner of the second house on the left, there's a tree bark that you can loot to find gold. Keep going straight and then turn left, you'll find the area's shrine which you can use to obtain a random buff.
Keep going straight and you'll encounter the first group of enemies that's by the open field. There are five enemy units here, two ranged enemies and three melee enemies. Before you start the battle, you will have to deploy your heroes around the green area first. Make sure you position your two Marksman heroes where they can both kill the ranged enemy units first but at the same time keeping a safe distance where you can run away from the melee enemy units. Shooting them at their backs deals extra damage as well, causing a one-shot, one kill attack.
You can find a bonfire nearby to rest and replenish any missing Armour or Hit Points. If you continue going northwest, you'll encounter another group of enemy units, two ranged enemy units and three melee enemy units. They all have their backs facing you when you approach them and they are all focused on attacking the guards of the village. If you are able to save at least one of them, they will either join they'll give you gold if you speak to them - there's a chest nearby that you can loot.
Next, go northeast and you'll find another group of enemy units who's about to take out another group of guards. Same as the last one, try to take them out as fast as you can before they reach the guards and kill them, again, if you are able to save at least one of them, they'll give you gold if you speak to them.
The goal of this mission is located in the southwest, and along the way, there's another tree bark that you can loot to find some gold and a dead body by the barn of a house. But before you reach the objective, head southeast you'll come across another group of enemies who are chasing an NPC. Make sure you stop the two waves of enemies from killing him so that he can temporarily join the party and aid you in fighting the brigands by the ruins.
Once you've defeated the enemies, speak to the NPC and head southwest. There are a lot of enemies here, so you will heavily rely on your Marksman heroes to do all the damage and kill those within your radius. A good tip is to shoot an enemy first and use overwatch with the remaining AP. This way, Sir Yvain, and Lady Dindraine can easily take out enemies when they move towards their line of sight. Before ending the mission, make sure you loot the chest near the ruins.
