HOLY CRAP THIS IS AMAZING ...was my first thought. Now that I relaxed, let's start talking and figuring out what we learned It looks like the vault that's in Demacia, the one that's he's keeping all the World Runes in is supposed to hold them, not any other forms of magic relics and items but the World Runes only. Then who made it? How did they know it will work? How did they learn how to stop the Runes?

It also looks like Riot is taking lessons from Marvel, since for some reason the Runes glow in different colors, kind of like the Infinity Stones in the Infinity war. Myabe they also share the idea of "different stone color, different power?"

How come Sona is in Ionia? I thought that she was in Demacia? And why are the Navori Brotherhood attacking both her and Ryze? What the hell is that Guardian thing that Ryze and Nasus awakened? And what was it guarding? And HOLY CRAP WHAT WAS A WATCHER DOING IN THAT WALL? Was it imprisoned? Did it try to take over Ryze? What did it try to learn? And why does it look a lot like Vel'koz?

And finally, why did the Red World Rune shine the most after Ryze left? Is it more powerful? If we look at the color aspect again, it looks like there's another Rune, blue in color that's missing. Where is it? And do all of them combine to something greater? Discuss.

We finally know what Ryze's splash art is supposed to show! https://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/img/champion/splash/Ryze_0.jpg

Those runes are the runes we use in game. They are all there apart from the Inspiration rune.

What I'm most interested in: Did whoever built the Demacian vault ever possess all those world runes? If yes, what caused him/them to lose the runes? Is the petricite enough to prevent Brand from finding them? How many world runes are there? How many world rune fragments are there? (Ryze's comic mentioned that Ryze has been hiding fragments) And most importantly, wtf happened with that Watcher?

Lore accurate MF kicking ass. Good cinematic.

I personally love how the Watcher thought he defeated Ryze, but by touching his scroll (Ryze is obsessed about it) he triggered him and got curbstomped in 6 seconds

I've rewatched the cinematic and noticed something. Assuming the vault is built symmetrical there are about 16 "slots" for world rune fragments. 8 in an inner ring, 8 in an outer ring. I doubt the vault has been created specifically for world runes, but if we assume it has, there are at least 11 more world rune fragments out there (and one Brand).

Sorry for making so many comments on this post, but I'm super exited about this stuff.

Hey OP, if you look at the map and click the story books that just showed up it says a short tidbit about Ryze and each of his interactions. Including Sona

Can they leave MissFortune outside of at least ONE event? I’m starting to get saturated.

OP i am sorry but a rioteer posted in another thread, that was not a watcher, said rioteer stated that the watchers are much bigger and scarier....presumably stronger too.

The one in the video was just a high tier voidborn, maybe something like vel koz?
