Shard of Madness:The god-warriors of Shurima were thought peerless. Perfect. But years of war against an unstoppable foe eventually bowed their spirits, then broke them entirely. Xolaani and Aatrox turned on each other in a dispute that soon threatened Runeterra's very existence.
Xolaani, Aspect's Bane: More. More. Even the great hero of legend Mihira could not withstand Xolaani's overwhelming strength. The earth seemed to shudder to one beat now, such was the hemomantic power growing within Xolaani. 1/2
Xolaani the Bloodweaver: Xolaani watched on as Anaakco fell to his knees, subjugated by the very enemy he sought so desperately to destroy. Slowly, the beat of his heart rang out in unison with the others. Another heart to control. Another body to command.
Divine Clerk: "It is said that when Mihira left this place, she left a part of herself behind--a holy flame, burning brightly. For years, my family has tended to that fire, keeping it lit in the hopes that she may yet return."
Mihira, Aspect of Justice: "Some revere the Aspects as gods. Others see them as messengers from the realm beyond. Still others fear them... and perhaps rightly so." - Lorekeeper Skai'en
Ryze lvl 1: "Ryze crested the ridge, accompanied by Kayle's silent servant. He looked down on a land scarred by war, and caught sight of the darkin monstrosities warring below. For centuries, he had watched on as humanity veered from one catastrophe to another. 1/2
Aatrox lvl 2: The battle gathered pace. Xolaani had finally found the courage to face him, and as the two ancient enemies warred, the terrain itself began to wither and bend beneath their fury. An army of celestials descended upon them, desperate to save their dying land-- 1/2
Kayle lvl 2: "We would surely know her to see her, should she ever return... but I worry there is little reason for her to do so beyond a threat so dire that it requires her interference." - Lorekeeper Skai'en
Kayle lvl 1: "The Demacians know her as the Winged Protector, but those of us who live under the vault of stars in Targon know her as the daughter of Justice, bearing divine purpose and a sword of starfire." - Lorekeeper Skai'en
The Darkin Fan: "In the bridge between worlds, I have long sensed a shadow that pulses with silent rage. Though I know better than to delve into the darkness after it, the pulse has lately grown stronger, faster-- 1/2
