Is Ekkos Hextech Crystal the same as Viktors and Jayces?

> One night, while Ekko scoured the rubble of a recently demolished laboratory, he made an astonishing find: a shard of a blue-green gem that glittered with magical energy. He quickly searched and discovered other fragments of the glowing jewel. The shards hummed like they were trying to sing a broken melody, the song growing louder when near other pieces. He painstakingly searched for every splinter of the broken crystal, though some were buried deep beneath tons of debris that required him to squeeze and wiggle between chunks of smelly rubbish. Every child of Zaun heard tales about hextech crystals. They powered weapons and heroes. They could create energy on their own. Hextech crystals had the potential to change the world. Now he held a broken one.

It fits the description. Especially the "The shards hummed like they were trying to sing a broken melody, the song growing louder when near other pieces." makes it seem like this is a broken Brakkern dreamstone.

I think so. It could also be why both are said to have tried to contact him, hinting that all three have shards of the same crystal.

Skarner is crying in a corner.

I'm really intrigued to see where this plot line goes, because this crystal, being a life stone, is effectively sentient. I wanna see what happens when the people using its shards figure that out.

I'm surprised it's still sentient because it's basically broken. Think they might go multiple personalities route like they did in RvB?

It contains the memories and experiences of potentially thousands of dead Brackern, so it was never really a singular entity to begin with, but I suppose a conglomerate conciousness? In that way I guess the form doesn't matter as long as there are still pieces and magic there.

Skarner will eventually just ram into Piltover/Zaun, pissed as hell. If the Pilties manage to capture him or even just call him a monster, it would probably be pretty sad.

He'll probably escape quickly, though, one way or another. Softskins, amirite? :P
