Master Arcanist Ziggs casts power word boom

For centuries, the guild hall stood as a shining beacon of magical progress. Rune-inscribed spellbooks covered its towering walls, watching over generation after generation of neophytes as they memorized their daily incantation. It was a bastion of magical knowledge the world thought would last forever.

Then someone played wiffle ball with a smoldering orb of incineration...

TwistedFate Hey Ziggs why are you a wizard now?

Ziggs Well I was inspired by a great wizard who taught me his secrets long ago.

Flash Back

Zilean Ziggs you have earned the rank of Master Arcanist and now can get the ladies.

Ziggs Finally for all the hard work I have put in I now have an excuse for my bombs to use magic damage and have some game now.

End of Flash Back

TwistedFate That never happened at all did it.

Ziggs No not all.

TwistedFate You just wanted an excuse to wear the wizard hat wasn't it.

Ziggs Yes, but I still can get the ladies right.

TwistedFate Of course you can cause no lady can resist the hats.

Ziggs later got Evelynn on a date. Twisted Fate was not happy.

The end

So Thaaaaaaaat's what happened to the Institute of War.

Gotta say: I never thought they'd pin it on Ziggs.

RIP in peace rune paper Q. You were weird and totally unique, unlike any other skin. But Riot just had to get rid you... oh well. The new Q still looks sick. :D

As you are walking down a hall, you see a door at the end. You get closer, about to open the door, when a parchment attached to it catches your eye. You begin reading the note to yourself.

"I prepared Explosive Runes today."

This was the last thing you ever read.

I feel like this is a reference to Pat Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles books.

Let's hope the guild wasn't fairy tail, the guild hall has been destroyed enough times.

Anyone getting a "Hearthstone" vibe from this skin? The book in the top left part of the picture looks like the opening screen in hearth, and the title of this article contains "Power Word Boom", and there are cards that begin with "Power Word: xxxxx"? Just food for thought, the skin looks sick!
