[1]Forever Knight Pagans was the faction site for the Forever Knight fans who were members of the FK Pagans affiliation. The website is ancillary to the faction's e-mail discussion list. As such, it served partly as an open advertisement of the group's existence and purpose, and partly as an archive for their writing.
Over time, the focus of the discussion group appears to have shifted somewhat away from Forever Knight itself. The earliest versions of the site describe the discussion list as "an e-mail discussion list based (loosely) in the Forever Knight Universe". Later versions qualify this, describing the list as "based originally in the Forever Knight Universe", adding "This has become a thriving general pagan list, and we welcome new members not of the "Forever Knight" fandom," though with the caveat that there are list members who do continue to discuss the series.[2]

Site History
The Forever Knight Pagans faction site was originally located at http://www.alpinemeadow.com/fk/Affiliations/Pagan.htm within Jan Jones's Dark Knight Lair website, which began in October 1998. It was revised slightly by March 2000, with a new background graphic, two additional poems, and another story.
After Dark Night Lair closed for renovations in 2000, the faction site was renamed "The Children of Ash and Stone", and moved to http://www.greymalkinlane.com/FKp/, being recorded in the new location by April 2001. It lasted there for at least one year, but had disappeared by 2005. One more poem and another story were added to the archive at this site.
The Wayback Machine archives the following versions of the site (with most of the stories and poems recorded, but not all):
- On Dark Knight Lair:
- As The Children of Ash and Stone:
