Description
"The Old Iron King commanded the capture of all Undead, and led his best men on Undead hunts. The captured Undead were thrown into cells built in the forest that would become known as Huntman’s Copse. These unfortunate souls were tortured and killed mercilessly, and eventually reduced to skeletons. Those charged with the task of rounding up the Undead were overcome by the Curse themselves, and the march of time has eroded any difference between the captors and the captives.
The Skeleton Lords were the leaders of these hunts, and the very men who were ordered to hunt down the Undead were themselves hollowed. With their memories purged in ‘rebirth’, they founded a kingdom of bone."

Dark Souls 2's Skeleton Lords. I did not actually know the above, but it makes a lot of sense in hindsight
