**Lore: **
Lyria was a young child when she first entered her dreams. In them she was a powerful mage who made everyone happy with candy and toys. She didn't know the dangers in her dreams. The shadows that hunger in the dark awaiting the innocent soul to wander through. Then, she met a curious creature called Sabriel. He was just a shadow in her otherwise colorful child-like dreams, and when she tried to talk to him he vanished into nothing. One night as she was sleeping away in her dreams. She called out to him, "Sabriel, the Lady of this Kingdom summons you!"
He appeared out of the colors of her imagination like a darkening of light. His voice was barely a whisper, but seemingly a whisper right in her ear, "What do you wish of me, Lady?"
Her child eyes held nothing but innocence as she gazed down, trying to sound like a high lady, "Sabriel, You are not one of the Gumdrop people, so why do you stay here?" In her own mind she thought she sounded quite like one of the High Nobles of Noxus she heard at one of her mother's parties. To Sabriel, she sounded like a child, a child who had made a grave mistake.
Sabriel gathered his form, and stepped out from the dark colors. His graceful form seemed to be made of smoke in the shape of a handsome man. His eyes held the color of dimming coals, and his hair a black, swirling ash. "I wanted to be close to you, My Lady," He said soothingly, "Your colors and light are so beautiful. We don't have them in my home."
Lyria felt sad for the man. His red eyes seemed so lost, and she decided that she would help him. Drawing herself taller she spoke "Well then I'll just have to bring colors AND light there! Everyone should have color." Sabriel smiled warmly, and reached out with his hand.
"Then I should stay here to protect your world while you go change mine." and when she touched his hand. The light all around fell away, and she found herself in a place of nightmares.
Many Years Later.....
A young summoner always had strange dreams, but for the last few nights his dreams were of a beautiful, young girl. Tonight was no different, but he decided he would talk to her this time. When he opened his eyes in the dream he saw her. The lithe body of a girl not quite a woman. Her hair was light a swirling smoke dyed yellow and purple. Yet, it was her eyes that always held him; those spheres of deep blue with strange symbols of gold.
"Why do I keep dreaming of you, girl?" He asked her, and she tilted her head to him. The strange smoke that seemed to make up her form seemed to become more solid suddenly.
"Because I need help. Will you help me?" She said, her voice sounded so far, and the young man was surprised at her speaking.
"How can I help you?" He asked his hands reaching out towards her. Her form becoming more real as he approached. She smiled at him.
"Call to me and I will be saved. Call me my Lady Lyria." She seemed to cry out in fear and desperation. His heart pounded as he reached for her, and although his mind seemed to be buzzing oddly he ignored it. How could he leave such a innocent girl if he could help her.
"Come forth, Lady Lyria, I will give my life to help you." and his hands touched hers. Suddenly he was awake, and in the room was the girl he had seen in his dreams. No longer surrounded in smoke and fog. She stretched her body, and shook her long, swirling hair.
"Have you ever wondered how real dreams, and nightmares are, boy?" She asked, her voice cold and sharp. The man felt his limbs begin to grow numb. He reached up towards his face, and found it to be cold and covered in sweat. Lyria picked up a small object on his floor, a simple metal jack. She spun it between her fingers.
"What is happening to me? What are you!?!" His voice was faint, and chilled. His hands flopped down to his sides, and when his head fell back he saw a bloody eye looking down at him. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the jack smoke and glow red. A smile on the girl's innocent face.
"Don't trust your dreams, because they are often nightmares in disguise." She said gently as she tossed the jack, and it slammed into his eyes.
