Hey everyone!
This week’s lore update is feeling purr-fect, and we’re not kitten around–it’s time to talk about our favorite fur-midible cat, Yuumi!
But before we get carried away, we also have a new short story where we’ll spend some time with our friends Lulu, Tristana, and… Draven?
Finally, to help close out the day, we’ll jump over to Demacia for the first issue of our new comic series: Lux.
As always, we love to hear your thoughts and theories, so make sure to share them in the comments or on Twitter using #leaguelore.
Let’s dive in!

Bio: The Magical Cat
Cats are made of twilight and tricks, dogs are made of barks and sticks! Book’s just old trees.

Color Story: The Biggest Catch
- by Rayla Heide
I’m about to jump into Book’s portal when I hear a scream that sounds like tinkling bells and the brightest rainbows. A scream that makes my fur stand on end. A yordle scream.

Short Story
The Whispering Doodad
- by Graham McNeill
“Here, doodad,” she whispers to the grass. “Pretty please, with sprinkles on top! I’ll let you take us somewhere you want to go next.” The doodad—or whatever it’s really called—doesn’t respond, but I sense it rolling away from Lulu. Well, not really rolling, as such, more making itself be where she isn’t.

League of Legends: Lux – Issue 1
- by John O’Bryan
Demacia is a peaceful utopia where order reigns. Maintaining that order at any cost are the Mageseekers, who hunt down anyone utilizing forbidden magic. Hailing from a respected noble family, Luxanna “Lux” Crownguard is destined for a life of privilege—but is hiding a terrible secret. As her own magical light powers emerge, Lux must decide whether she stands with brother Garen and the ruling class of Demacia…or the downtrodden Mages at the fringes of society.
We’re proud to present the first issue of our second comic in partnership with Marvel expanding the League of Legends universe: Lux! Issue #1 is available now, so If you haven’t already, jump over to the Lux comic series Universe page to check it out.
