League Of Legends' Lore/Full story

I think that Riot should give us a full story of League of legends or at least a recap of the story, because its really interesting to know the story of the game and makes it fun to play, i know that in every champions' page there is a lore for the champ, but still its not even showing a lot of the champions' relationships (ex, why are they rivals/friends, etc.), what happened in the wars (ionia's invasion, etc.), in some cases its an unfinished lore like j4's (ex, Those close to him believed that his capture had changed him. Xin Zhao was quoted as saying: "His eyes never seemed to look at you, only through you to something he could not look away from." was he corrupted for example???) and much much more. I'm sure that a lot of lol players agree with me that it makes the game way more fun (the story alone is also fun) if Riot makes a full story (the watchers and freljord, demacia and noxus, etc.) or even a movie series about league of legends. And if anyone thinks that i didn't search hard enough to find the full story plz provide links, and if u agree with me plz upvote. :)

League of Legends doesn't have a story, especially not after the removal of the IoW. Instead, it has many smaller stories that are connected to some of the other small stories, creating a web which is the lore.

We are also currently in a state of continuous retconning, which means we have to question all the lore that was established already. For example: We know the Ionia vs. Noxus war happened, but why? How could Noxus still defend against Demacia?

J4's Lore is incomplete on purpose. We don't know what happened to him, although it's very much hinted that the J4 we know is not the one that left on the hunting trip, and somehow LeBlanc has a hold of his blood and has used it at least once to transform into him to aid Swain in tricking the rest of Valoran.

A full story summary would be something I'd like to see on the main page, but it would have to be in categories, since the chronology is all over the place and a lot of things have no stated date or age. In addition, lots of the City States have had little to no interaction, especially if you take the removal of the League into account.
