Sir Amik Varze
Find Amik and he'll ask you to become a squire after a small conversation. Decline his offer, and the conversation will continue. It turns out that there needs to be a crisis for you to become a knight, so go report back to Tiffy. You'll have to talk to him then go back to Amik, you "old bean." But it turns out that you are "a human bean... I mean being!"
Head on back to good ol' Varze, that old bean. He tells you the news that some bad guy named Solus is back, the "infamous murder-mage." Follow the very unclear conversation through to the end and accept his mission.
Now for the age-old last resort, back to Tiffy, that old bean. It turns out you're just the "agent." Now you'll have to make an item for him, or you could just buy it. You can hand over a law rune, a slayer gem, and a molten glass and Tiffy will make it for you, or you can just pay him 10k. Either way, you'll get a
From this point on, you'll be chasing Solus throughout RuneScape, and each time you find him you'll receive an item. That item is a hint for where to go next. These items are always random, so here's a list of items that you may receive, along with where you should go:
Warning: After finding Solus for the third time, he will cast Flames of Zamorak on you which will reduce your hits by 4/5 (so if you have 65 hitpoints, it will hit for 52 damage).
Warning #2: The last place you find Solus at, you will also be confronted by a level 32 Black Knight. Additionally, be sure to pick up any pets or familiars before entering the Rune Essence mine; otherwise your pet will attack you!
Eventually you should get some Rune Essence, so head off to whichever Rune Essence teleport spot you want. Scan in there, and Savant will close off possible teleports, to trap him. After a small cutscene, she'll summon some rangers to attack, but he kills them all. Go attack him yourself and kill him (he's fairly easy) and you'll get his hat.
Talk to Amik and hand over the hat. Quest complete! He'll explain to you about the new armor system and killing Black Knights.
Knight Rankings
In order to increase your ranking, you must kill a certain number of Black Knights. You start off as a Novice at 0 kills, and as you kill more knights, you'll grow in your rank.
Novice: For the novice level, you do not need any kills. You are able to buy a White Knight Chain for 1440 gp and White Knight platelegs for 1920 gp.
Peon: For the peon level, you must have a least 100 black knight kills. Once you achieve this, a message will appear in your chat saying that you have become a White Knight Peon. Once you achieve this level, you can buy White Knight sword for 624 gp and a White Knight dagger for 240 gp.
Page: For the page level, you need to kill 200 black knights. Also, you will see a message in your chat box which will congratulate you that you have reached the White Knight Page rank. At this level you can also buy a White Knight skirt for 1920 gp, a White Knight medium helm for 576 gp and also a White Knight square shield for 1152 gp.
Noble: For the noble White Knight rank, you need to kill 400 black knights and you will also receive a message saying that you have reached the noble rank. Once you have reached this rank, you can buy a White Knight mace for 432 gp, a White Knight magic staff for 200 gp and also a White Knight longsword for 960 gp in addition to the other equipment.
Adept: Finally the much sought after White Knight Adept rank, but you still have one more to go. You need to kill 800 black knights and a message will tell that you advanced to this level. Once you become an Adept White Knight, you can buy a White knight platebody for 3840 gp, a White Knight full helm for 1056 gp, a White Knight kiteshield for 1632 gp, a pair of White knight boots for 576 gp, and a pair of White Knight gloves for 6 gp.
Master: Congratulations, you have reached the Master White level, although you need to kill 1600 overall black knights.

You will be rewarded with various White Knight weapons which includes, a White Knight warhammer for 980 gp, a White Knight battleaxe, a White Knight scimitar for 768 gp, a pair of White Knight claws for 360gp, a White Knight 2-Handed sword and a White Knight halberd each for 1920 gp.
