Chapter Zero History of League of Legends (Free)
Book friends, you may have seen the title of the volume. Well, this volume will start with the Battle of Two Cities and write about the story of the League of Legends universe.
First of all, I would like to strongly recommend the anime "League of Legends: Battle of Two Cities". Before watching it, I thought it was a money-making work for the league, and I felt that I would not adapt to the American style of painting. After watching it, there are only two words left - A masterpiece.
As for the background of League of Legends, everyone should have heard of this game, and perhaps nearly half of them have played it, but they don’t know much about its background story.
Therefore, before starting, I will sort out the story line for everyone and myself, so as to facilitate better reading and understanding of this volume, and to avoid too much plot in the main text. (conscience)
The following is the content that Siyang has taken the time to sort out recently. Because Riot has a problem with reading books, we cannot guarantee that the sorting is completely correct. If you have any mistakes or omissions found by knowledgeable experts, please remind me.
By the way, although there are many heroes in the League whose stories are quite nonsense, there are also many heroes whose background stories are very attractive, such as Pantheon, Mordekaiser, Clockwork and other stories. They are all very interesting and you can learn about them if you are interested. .
For such a popular game and such a big company, the copywriting must have its charming and exciting aspects, but sometimes it’s just that in order to sell skins and redo heroes, we lose our moral integrity...
Finally, there is only this free 10,000-word chapter today, and the main text will start tomorrow!

League of Legends Universe History
Part One, Ancient Times
Endless years ago, when the remnants of the nebula gathered into thousands of worlds, the Star-casting Dragon King was born, and he and his kind traveled in the heavens, creating miraculous stars and lighting up the starry sky.
In the heaven, there are few existences equal to it. Those eternal stars are much weaker than it, and have no creative or romantic intentions.
After endless years, the Dragon King made a surprising discovery. Near one of the suns it created, a new world emerged, a world with multiple overlapping realms.
This new world is not its work, and the protoss seem to be curious about it, asking Thor to take a closer look. This is Runeterra.
Runeterra is different from other places in that there is a thriving civilization.
The rune universe is not unique. There is void beyond matter. The void has no time and space, and its existence is meaningless. It is disturbed by the material plane, forms energy life, and begins to observe and monitor the material plane to try to find a way to enter the plane - these Energy beings are called Void Watchers.
In addition, there are many secret realms with many wonderful beings, such as the astral wandering god Bard, who travels there and maintains the balance of the universe.
But it was also here that the Dragon King was lured to Mount Targon, put on a magical crown made by the Celestials offered by mortals, and had the knowledge of making stars stolen. It was very angry, but was thrown back to the heaven by the power of the crown, and could no longer approach Runeterra. It could only watch the despicable and treacherous star spirits, who proclaimed themselves "giants" and enslaved the mortals to build a huge sun disk.
Through the disc crown, the stars extract the power of Thor, the Dragon King of Heaven, and inject it into the bodies of the chosen mortals to create immortal warriors of the gods.
These humans are called 'Ascendants', and the protoss seem to want to use these Ascended armies to fight against unknown enemies.
And because Thor was controlled, the stars it shaped also dimmed. In the years that were only a snap but actually very long to Thor, Thor had been waiting for the day of revenge.
Back to the north of Runecontinent, thousands of years before Thor came, the Freljord had given birth to many primitive demigods during this period, such as Ornn, the Flame of the Mountain, and Volibear, the Immortal Crazy Thunder. , Ice Crystal Phoenix Anivia.
Ornn was the first one, the eldest brother. He fought with the earth, smashed out mountains and hills, and used the sea to cool the furnace, causing hundreds of years of snow and turning the Freljord into a world of ice and snow.
Volibear is the representative of chaotic war, to which anyone can sacrifice his soul to gain power, while Anivia represents order and hope, guiding the mortal tribes.
In addition to them, there are countless demigods active in this era, changing constantly every day.
And the weak human race also gave birth to three heroes. The three ice sisters, the three Lissandra sisters. (not ice shooter)
They were able to fight against the primitive gods and fight for a place for mortals to survive. Lissandra, who was blinded by a bear during the battle, accidentally got in touch with the Void Monitor while walking in the darkness. In order to gain power, she made a deal. , guiding the void to descend.
The void gave the three sisters ice blood and powerful power, allowing them to establish the Freljord. Some mortals who did not want to be enslaved by the void and the three sisters took a boat to sea and came to Ionia, where they met with the already existing Vastaya combined to form a new vastaya race.
There is also a mortal hero called Ivern the Merciless who merged with Ionia's sacred object Emperor Willow and became the Emerald God.
In the Freljord, when the void came, Lissandra felt the terror and regretted it. She used all the power of the Yetis and the ultimate ice to seal the entrance to the void and freeze the void monitors, but at the cost of except Lissandra, All living things within a thousand miles were frozen, including her two sisters. (Also sealed was a prehistoric yordle named Nar)
In order to hide all this and rewrite history, Lissandra and the Frost Guard wiped out those who knew about it, and the Freljord once again fell into chaos and separatism.
The Void has also become cautious, slowly corrupting Runeterra and creating void monsters.
Vel'Koz, Eye of the Void, Kha'Zix the Void Reaver, Khazmo the Maw of the Abyss, Cho'Gath the Void Terror, etc. all came from this.
They lie dormant underground, waiting for the day they break out of the ground and devour the world.
Thousands of years later, the age of primitive gods came to an end, and Shurima and the ancient human civilization emerged.
The first ascended person created by the protoss using the Dragon King was none other than the founding emperor of Shurima, Queen Setaka. The weapon she used, the legendary cross blade Chalikal, was Sivir's wheel.
One after another, mortals accepted blessings and became ascended ones, conquering everywhere and expanding their territory. Shurima gradually became the most powerful country.
Later, the southern vassal country of Icathia rebelled, and nine Ascended Ones went to suppress the rebellion. Before the country was destroyed, the mages of Icathia completed the final spell, and the void rift was opened.
Countless void monsters descended, and a fierce battle broke out. Queen Setaka personally went out to fight. Except for the dog heads and crocodiles who stayed behind, almost all the ascended people joined the battle.
These include Aatrox, Varus, Raast and other Ascended generals.
However, the war did not go smoothly. The void monster's vitality was extremely tenacious, tireless and fearless, and only knew killing and destruction.
At the critical moment, the Ascended hero Horok used the legendary weapon of the Underworld in his hand to enter the depths of the Void's lair, pierce the Void's despicable heart, and then re-seal the Void after the battle.
But Shurima also suffered heavy casualties, and the queen was killed in the battle. Fortunately, in the next few hundred years, Shurima recuperated and returned to its peak, ruling almost the entire Runeterra. The time came to the era of Desert Emperor Azir.
He was originally the least favored little prince, but due to an assassination, all his brothers died, and only he survived with the life-saving rescue of his slave Xerath.
Azir was both civil and military. After ruling for a period of time, he decided to hold an ascension ceremony, and then fulfilled his promise to Xerath, giving Xerath a surprise and liberating all the slaves in Shurima, but he did not know that Xerath Si thought he had forgotten his promise and became a tyrant.
At the critical moment of the ritual, Xerath pushed him out of the Altar of the Sun and stood on it. Unprotected, Azir was reduced to ashes, and the astral energy stolen by the powerful wizard Xerath transformed him into a The extremely powerful evil energy body was later locked into an enchanted sarcophagus by the two dog-headed crocodile brothers who came in a hurry.
But Xerath was too strong at this time and broke the sarcophagus, leaving only the chain. The dog head could only reluctantly seal the crocodile and Xerath together.
Then due to misappropriation, the ascended energy exploded, destroying the capital of Shurima. The yellow sand surged, the sun disk fell, and Shurima was buried inside. The era of mythology came to an end.
——————————
Part Two, Dark War Era
After Azir's death, the Shurima Empire was leaderless. The Ascended generals who had fought against the Void were now ready to take action, but in fact they had already been contaminated by the Void.
They became stronger, more brutal, and more ambitious. They proclaimed themselves kings one after another, ushering in the era of dark war and bringing catastrophe to mortals.
The Ascended Ones have long been different from humans in appearance. They no longer consider themselves human beings, but call themselves gods. Human beings call these fallen Ascended Ones Darkspawn.
In the eyes of the Darkborn, mortals are like livestock, and wherever they go, tragedies are everywhere, sweeping across Rune Continent.
The scarlet vampire Vladimir was once the prince of the human kingdom, but after his father surrendered, he was given to a dark descendant as a hostage. Vladimir's loyalty allowed him to learn some basics of flesh and blood magic and help the dark descendants manage mankind. .
The protoss of the Titan clan could not ignore this, and a darkspawn named Tanayali had some conscience left. The twilight star Maisha used this to gain Tanayali's trust and summoned other darkspawn. At the gathering, Tanayali used Charikal, the weapon of Setaka, the founding queen of Shurima, to seal many dark descendants.
Using this move, the mortals sealed the Darkin one by one. Aatrox, Verus, and Raast were all sealed in their respective weapons, and the Darkin War came to an end.
But peace is short-lived. Without the dark descendants, human beings continue to fight. A new overlord emerges out of thin air. He is the iron-armored ghost-Mordekaiser (Iron Man). Mordekaiser was originally just a mortal, his real name was Thane U'zul, and he was the warlord king in the northern part of Valoran. During the Darkin War, he was unable to compete with the Darkin, but now it is his time.
He is very powerful, but has some problems with his thinking. He is a staunch worshiper of darkness and believes in all the beauties of the dark kingdom.
So he marched east and west, purged all the villages that stood in his way, and killed everyone.
When his life was about to end, he was filled with joy because he believed that his deeds during his lifetime had qualified him to rank with God in the Hall of Bones.
But unlike what he thought, what awaited him after his death was not a palace of bones, but a gray wasteland, with messy whispers lingering in his ears and the souls of the dead floating in it.
Furious, Mordekaiser questioned his dark beliefs and had to accept reality.
However, his soul refused to dissipate. It survived by virtue of its will and understood the meaning of the whispers here (Ouchen language). It is a sinful language that does not belong to living creatures and builds a bridge between life and death.
He penetrated the whispers into every curtain, seduced the living, and bewitched a group of wizards. Using a pair of black iron armor that resembled his life as a carrier, he used necromancy magic to resurrect Mordekaiser on a moonless night.
The resurrected Mordekaiser became even more invincible, killing the wizards and using their souls to create the mace Nightfall, which could command the dead.
He came back with a vengeance, and the brutal war almost wiped out an entire generation on the continent. Eager to master all knowledge of the soul and death, he built a megalithic fortress at the center of his empire to protect the bones, and was known as the Immortal Fortress.
The purpose is to study necromancy. Veigar, a yordle magician who came to Runeterra from Bandle City to learn magic, was captured by Mordekaiser and imprisoned in the Immortal Fortress, constantly torturing it and forcing it to serve him.
However, under Mordekaiser, there was a magician named LeBlanc (The Enchantress) who did not want to be enslaved by Mordekaiser anymore and found Vladimir. At this time Vladimir was no longer a mortal. In the later stages of the Darkin War, he killed the Darkin master and stole the power of flesh magic.
The two hit it off and established a secret organization - Black Rose.
The organization continued to grow stronger, and when the time came, LeBlanc contacted the barbarian tribe outside the Immortal Fortress, working together internally and externally, allowing the chief to sneak in, cutting off the connection between Mordekaiser and the armor.
Mordekaiser was banished. Then the barbarian tribes established a new empire - Noxus, centered on the Immortal Fortress.
However, in reality, Mordekaiser did this on purpose just to return to the underworld. Everyone he killed actually became his undead army, waiting for his arrival in the underworld.
He has not seen the Skeleton Hall, so he wants to build his own Skeleton Throne, become the king of the underworld, and accumulate power in the underworld!
And his story was temporarily interrupted. The Black Rose became the real controller of Noxus, secretly guiding the throne of Noxus for more than a thousand years.
After that, various countries had small-scale conflicts and reluctant peace until the world rune was discovered.
World Runes are the origin of all life in Rune Land. The first person to discover them was an ancient association on Fuguang Island in this era. This group has been committed to researching and protecting the most dangerous sacred objects in Rune Land.
They accidentally discovered the origin of magic, the world runes.
They decided to hide, but there was no airtight wall in the world, and word spread anyway.
When people learn about the amazing energy contained in the world's runes, the first thing they think of is how to master it and turn it into a weapon.
In the ancient association, there was a young mage named Ryze (Wandering Mage).
He and his master Tyrus collected and kept the world runes together, and persuaded the forces that owned the world runes to hand them over. However, human nature was selfish, and few people were willing to hand it over.
In Ryze's hometown, a place once known as Noxy, Ryze's master and apprentice failed to persuade the two countries. The leaders of the two countries were unwilling to interact with each other and were tit for tat. They used world runes to launch attacks on each other. In a devastating blow, Ryze saw the power of runes for the first time with his own eyes. His hometown was destroyed, the earth collapsed, seawater surged, and a piece of land sank to the bottom of the sea.
This is the first loud bang of the world's runes, the prelude to the Rune War.
Runes have become a must-have weapon, and armies use magic to strengthen and arm themselves, and use magic items to kill each other without considering the consequences.
In order to end the war, Ryze's master and apprentice traveled around the world and worked hard to collect them. However, in the process, Ryze's master Tyrese was tempted by long-term exposure to the world's runes, and his mind changed. He began to hate human beings and wanted to use violence to control them. violent.
As a last resort, Ryze killed his master, took up his master's scroll, and embarked on a journey to save the world alone.
The Rune Wars lasted for hundreds of years and intensified. Great civilizations disappeared from history one by one, bringing catastrophic consequences, environmental collapse, and countless disasters.
The wild magic also breeds many monsters. In the Kumangu jungle in the east of Shurima, ferocious carnivorous plants were born, devouring all living things. And this place called Jielu Garden gradually gained self-awareness. Became Zyra, the Rising of Thorns.
Only then did humans realize that they could not go on like this, and the Rune War gradually came to an end.
During the war, a group of refugees who were devastated by magic fled to the west coast of Valoran and discovered a Forbidden Stone Forest. The stones here are very special and have the magical power to absorb magic, giving the refugees a sense of security.
They settled here and built walls with forbidden magic stones. In the distant Mount Targon, there was a father who also brought his two daughters, Kyle and Morgana, to settle here in order to escape the war.
Suddenly one day, a long sword fell from the sky with celestial flames, inserted into the ground between the two sisters, and split into two.
This is the weapon of their mother Mythila, the legendary righteous star spirit. The two sisters each pulled out half of it and received the blessing of the star spirit.
After that, they used their own strength to help everyone build their homes and resist foreign enemies, and the emerging country Demacia was gradually born.
The two sisters are known as the Winged Guardians of Demacia. However, slowly, their minds changed. Kyle becomes increasingly ruthless and determined to enforce law and justice. Morgana has a heart for humanity and sympathizes with humans who have a heart for redemption.
In the joint battle against the sword demon, they used forbidden techniques, which exacerbated this.
Conflicts piled up and a fight finally broke out. During the battle, his father was affected and died of accidental injuries. The two sisters broke off their friendship. Kyle picked up his and his sister's two swords and flew to Mount Targon without looking back. Morgana locked her wings. Feet walk on the earth.
At the same time, on the other side of Runeterra, Blessed Light Island has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
Just because of an unforgettable love.
On the continent of Valoran, there is a human country. The queen was assassinated and was poisoned. King Foyego (the Ruined King) was heartbroken and sent his general and niece Kalista (Spear of Vengeance) out to find a solution. medicine.
Many years later, Callista found the Blessed Island and found the antidote, the Water of Life, but it was too late. The queen was already dead. The king became crazy and imprisoned her for deceiving the king.
It turned out that Kalista's subordinate, the centurion Hekarim, became greedy for Blessed Light Island and the Fountain of Life, and deceived Kalista into going to Blessed Light Island.
Crazy Foyego determined that the queen could not be resurrected, and ordered the massacre of the residents of Blessed Isle. Kalista, who wanted to stop her, was also killed by Hecarim in a sneak attack. Under the leadership of the caretaker Thresh, whose sanity was distorted by the treasure, Foyego Yego placed the queen's rotting body in the Fountain of Life on Blessed Light Island.
Queen Isulde stood up, but turned into a wraith. She picked up Foego's sword and pierced Foego's heart.
The magic of the holy water collided with the ancient sword, and the energy of the closed room exploded. The holy objects collected on Fuguang Island brought huge disasters. Black fog swept across the entire island, trapping everything it touched in a sober and painful world. In the state of immortality.
In this way, Fuguang Island was destroyed.
Shadow Island was born.

Part Three, Modern History
The following events occurred almost simultaneously and are described one by one from north to south.
The northernmost point, the Freljord.
After Lissandra was frozen for thousands of miles, the primitive tribes were in turmoil for thousands of years, with Lissandra and her Frost Guards secretly ruling the roost.
But as fate would have it, two other tribes emerged. One is the ice archer Ashe, who is considered the reincarnation of Lissandra's sister Avarosa, and the other is Sejuani, the Fury of the North, who inherited the will of Lissandra's sister Serelda.
Ashe's mother once led the tribe on a path of no return in search of the Tomb of Avarosa, and eventually died at the hands of Lissandra's Frost Guard, and the Avarosa tribe was destroyed.
At a critical moment, Ashe obtained Avarosa's Ice-Issance inheritance and took revenge with one arrow. Then, alone, with a heart of caring for the tribe, she rebuilt the tribe and became stronger day by day.
Sejuani was born in the Winter's Claw tribe. She suffered a lot since she was a child and believed in the law of the jungle. When she became an adult, she led the Winter's Claw tribe out of the control of the Frost Guard, rose up in the north of Freljord, and destroyed it with war. enemy.
So the three kingdoms of Freljord were divided, Ashe's Avarosa, Sejuani's Winter's Claw, and Lissandra's Frost Guard.
Ashe and Sejuani rule many tribes in the Freljord, and in their efforts to unify them, Lissandra has no time to care about them.
Because the rift in the void that was sealed under the Howling Abyss by Lissandra thousands of years ago is crumbling under the erosion of time, and the nine Perfect Icicles are melting one by one.
If you want to strengthen Zhenbing's power, you can only use the Yeti tribe. At this time, there is only the last Yeti left in the world, and that is Nunu's friend, the Yeti Willump.
…
On the other side, to the west of Valoran, Demacia is ruled by the Lightshield family.
Jarvan Lightshield III was diligent and caring for his people. Under his rule, Demacia won the war with Noxus, reversed the situation, and regained Xin Zhao. The heir, Jarvan IV, also grew up outstandingly under his training.
Beneath the surface, there is an undercurrent.
The class antagonism between the nobility and the common people is becoming more and more serious, and the law prohibiting magic has deepened this inequality. After the powerful mage Silas escaped from prison, he united with the oppressed mages to form a resistance organization and vowed to overthrow the tyranny.
Demacia is in desperate need of a change, but revolution is still a change, and it's still unclear what role Kaer Morgana will play.
In addition, there is a big hidden danger in Demacia. The world runes collected by Ryze from all over the world are currently hidden in Demacia's Forbidden Stone Forest Treasure House.
From Silas's story, we learned that the Forbidden Stone does not destroy magic, it only stores it.
…
East of Demacia, across the mountains and rivers, to Noxus.
The previous emperor was named Darkwill, but it was Black Rose who actually ruled this country for thousands of years, and the emperor was just a puppet.
Under the temptation of LeBlanc, in order to find the holy object of immortality, Darkwill launched a war on multiple fronts, reaching as far north as the Freljord, west as far as Demacia, south as far as Shurima, and even across the sea. , invading Ionia in the east.
During the war, there was a general, Swain (Crow), who won a very high reputation in the army with his extraordinary strategy. In order to get rid of him, at the Battle of Placidium in Ionia, his The army was almost completely drained, and was ultimately left mortally wounded in isolation.
One of his kneecaps was completely shattered, leaving him disabled, and his left arm was severed by Irelia's flying knife. However, on the battlefield, Swain was inspired by a mysterious power. After returning to Noxus, he was dismissed from his post due to defeat.
But in the secret, he obtained the powerful dark power hidden in the Immortal Fortress and became the incarnation of some ancient power (Demon? Mordekaiser? I don’t seem to be sure.)
After several years of careful planning, Swain launched a coup and seized the throne of Noxus. However, he did not serve as emperor. Instead, he abolished the imperial system and established a three-person council called Trifari to ensure that he would not monopolize power.
The three represent the three spirits of Noxus, namely the eyes (foresight), the pillars (force), and the two blades (cunning) on the national emblem.
Swain, Darius, LeBlanc.
They ceased war with foreign countries, rested and recuperated, and mobilized elite troops to form the Cuifali Army.
They accept everyone, even their former enemy Black Rose.
Noxus has entered a new era.
…
Noxus headed east, across the ocean, to Ionia. For thousands of years, due to isolation from the world, Ionia has retained its original natural features and lifestyle, advocating nature, pursuing harmony, and remaining aloof from the world.
The Noxian invasion shattered the harmony.
During the resistance, many heroes were born.
For example, in the Battle of Presidence, the 14-year-old sword girl Irelia defeated Swain and was regarded as the leader; in Wuji Village, the swordsman Yi Wuji used his sword skills to defeat an army; the Kinkou Sect, Zed and Akali They defected from the division one after another and resisted the invaders.
In the Storm Sword Sect, Yasuo was wronged due to the death of his elder (which was quite interesting) and was forced to wander around the world until the truth was finally revealed.
Well, Noxus was not defeated unjustly.
But the impact of this invasion was huge, changing the lives of many heroes, and making Ionia begin to examine its place in the world.
Some people formed a resistance army, and some people joined the Navoli Brotherhood, heading towards the road of revenge with violence against violence. And Noxus has never given up its dream of Ionia, and a new war will come back soon.
…
Continue south to the strait between the continents of Valoran and Shurima.
Here are two emerging city-states: Piltover and Zaun.
Originally, the continent of Valoran and the continent of Shurima were connected, and the two city-states were one.
Because they wanted to conquer nature, two hundred years ago, the residents here tried to use alchemical explosives to blast a canal to connect the oceans on both sides of the continent.
However, on the day the canal was completed, there was a loud noise and the explosion of alchemical explosives caused a chain earthquake reaction. The entire city was torn apart, with half rising and half sinking. An entire city sank into the ocean, and nearly half of the residents were trapped in the ocean. Lost their lives in the disaster. Thanks to the wind girl Janna, she blew away the alchemical poisonous gas, blocked the tsunami with the wind wall, and saved the remaining residents.
Piltover is situated on a seaside cliff overlooking the sea.
With the convenience brought by the Grand Canal, this place has become the trade center of Runeterra. Fleets from all over the world, loaded with goods from all over the world, gather here and develop and prosper.
And Zaun became a mirror, and some prohibited goods flowed into the black market.
There are also undercurrents surging between the two city-states.
Piltover is controlled by many large families, who control almost all social resources. The class gap is getting wider and wider, and various families are fighting openly and secretly for emerging technologies.
At the same time, the advancement of science and technology has also attracted countless scientists. However, some crazy research is not tolerated by Piltover. These people have found a place in Zaun and conducted dangerous and terrifying experiments, leading to the environment of Zaun. It is extremely bad. Not only have mutant people or creatures such as Tuqi, the source of the plague, Mondo the madman of Zaun, and Zac the biochemical demon, but also scientifically modified monsters such as Warwick the wild beast of Zaun.
…
Sailing eastward from the port of Piltover, you will soon arrive at Bilgewater in the Blue Flame Islands, a paradise and haven for pirates, smugglers and outlaws.
There are four terrifying legends here: Nautilus, the titan of the deep sea, Fizz, the weird little murloc, Pike, the ghost hiding in the Blood Harbor, and Tam, the king of the river, who satisfies your endless desires.
If you are not careful, you will lose your life.
In this place full of dangers and opportunities, you are not bound by any government, laws or moral restrictions. As long as you have enough money and a big enough fist, you can enjoy what you want.
For the past ten years, a brutal pirate named Gangplank has been in charge here, setting strict rules and giving lawbreakers a set of order and rules.
However, when he was young, he brutally murdered a family. However, the little girl Sarah of this family survived happily. Later, she changed her name to Miss Fortune. Under her careful planning, she blew up Planck. On the pirate ship, Gangplank lost an arm and was seriously injured, and Bilgewater fell into chaos overnight.
Southeast of the Blue Flame Islands, Shadow Island.
The day when the black fog spreads once a year is called the Soul-eating Night. The black mist rises and falls like a tide, and the first one to bear the brunt is Bilgewater.
After Gangplank fell, enemies from various gangs fought for territory and wealth. At this moment, the black mist swept in. Miss Fortune led her men to resist desperately. Olaf and Lucian, who happened to be here, also provided help.
In the end, with the help of Illaoi, the sea beast priest, Bilgewater survived the Soul-eating Night, but the black fog on the Shadow Island has been expanding, and the undead undead are expanding the scope of infestation, harvesting lives throughout Runeterra. and hope.
…
South of Runeterra, Shurima continent.
The Shurima Empire has been lost in the dust of history, and there are only teams that continue to explore.
A mercenary named Sivir (Wheel Mother) accepted the commission of Noxian noble Cassiopeia (Snake Lady) to explore the tomb of the emperor in Shurima. However, in fact, Cassiopeia Ya's goal is the cross blade in Sivir's hand, Chalikal, the Queen's weapon.
This is the key to the Tomb of the Emperor. At the critical moment, Cassiopeia killed Sivir in a sneak attack and opened the door with Charikal.
Renekton and Xerath, who had been sealed for thousands of years, escaped, while Cassiopeia triggered the curse and turned into a half-human, half-snake monster.
Renekton, who had been sealed for thousands of years, turned into a hateful and crazy beast. He believed that his brother Kotou had betrayed him. Xerath's power has been growing over these thousands of years, and he has seen a world waiting to be conquered and harvested. He will become the god of the new world.
On the other side, Sivir was killed because she had the blood of the Shurima royal family. Her blood brought Azir, the last emperor with only a trace of his soul, back to life.
Azir once again gained the power of ascension, and the immortal light of the sun poured into his body, granting him the ability to control the yellow sand. He raised his hands and his ruined city shook off the dust that had covered it for thousands of years and rose back above the ground, the sun disk levitating once more.
Shurima, your Emperor is back!
However, not everyone is eager for the return of the ancient emperor. Taliyah said goodbye to her master Yasuo, returned to Shurima, and led her people to resist the restoration of the feudal dynasty.
…
The southernmost tip of the Shurima continent is Icathia. After the Void War thousands of years ago, it has become a dead land. A prophet with the innate ability to predict the future, Malzahar, came at the call of the void. When he arrived here, he received the response of the void in the ruins, giving him new strength and purpose. He will lead his people to welcome the sacred void.
He established a cult and asked his followers to sacrifice to the void. For those who resisted, he would use the power given to him by the void to tear the earth apart and summon nightmare monsters to devour them.
A village was swallowed up entirely, and a girl named Kaisha miraculously survived, gained a part of the power of the void, and survived ten years in the void lair.
Kai'Sa, half human and half monster, hunted countless void monsters, but most of the humans she protected regarded her as a monster, but she did not give up.
She would never allow the void to swallow the entire Runeterra.
On the other side, Kassadin's father, Kassadin, vowed revenge after learning that his hometown had been devoured, and wanted to eliminate the Prophet of the Void and his source of dark power. He collected many arcane artifacts and forbidden techniques in order to face the dangers ahead.
He even found the Ascended Horok's weapon, the Hades Blade.
Then he put on his robe, dressed as a pilgrim, said goodbye to his former friends, and entered Icathia alone, a forbidden land for humans, confident that he would take revenge.
…
The westernmost point of Shurima, Mount Targon.
There is a problem within the Protoss.
The Moon Sect, which was suppressed by the Sun Sect, has recently shown signs of recovery, and the mortal incarnations of the Moon Celestial Spirits have also reappeared in the world.
The civil strife made the control they exerted on the Dragon King weaker and weaker. The Dragon King could feel that the long-lost freedom was getting closer and closer to him.
By then, hundreds of millions of races in the stars will see its wrath, and everyone will understand what a terrible price they have to pay to steal the power of the Star Dragon - "I have been waiting for thousands of years, just to witness, The Titan has fallen!”
