The story referred to was told in a Star Trek episode (don't ask me which,
I'm no good at this... someone will surely post it soon). Kahless is a
cultural hero of Klingon culture, and nearly a religious one as well
(legends about his return exist, etc). He lived hundreds or thousands of
years before Star Trek events.
