Possible Future After Taric Rework

So we know for a fact that Taric is going to be reworked and is next on the list of content, as he is being put in with the whole Targonian gang. But I noticed another strange detail that pertains with the rest of Targon. As Aurelion Sol used his powers to stop a rift of void creatures invading Targon, he noticed a strange laughter mocking him from within the rift, which some what startled him and gave him the idea that a much bigger force is behind these rifts. As well as the fact that Diana's lore had a lot to do with the void as well, with her even acting as a sort of Batman figure against them, I can safely assume that the next champion after Taric's rework will have something BIG involving the Void. Perhaps we'll finally see Kog'Maw's 'daddy'! Or some strange incarnation of it.

This is something I'm looking forward to seeing as well. The Void doesn't have its big "Final Boss" character yet. And while I'd also like that to remain a bit of a mystery, because it helps make The Void alien and creepy, I can't deny I'd love to see what the idea of it might be.

One of my personal favorite pet theories (With absolutely no canon backup, this is just spitballing) is that The Void itself is sentient, like it's this massive creature that just sort of vomits out monsters into other dimensions, spreading and assimilating more and more into itself.

So kinda like the human body?

Like the void creatures are like cells for the body. The Void itself would bleed into Runeterra's plane.

A void story might be possible,since it is rather popular and would tie in with the targon lore. Though they might also want to flesh out some places that need it a bit more.I mean the void is supposed to be rather mysterious,so its not really that much of a problem if it isn't that well defined. I think Piltover and Bandle city could really need some exploration,I mean even though Zaun,Demacia,Noxus und Ionia all didn't get events,we do have a pretty good picture of them already,even if its far from perfect.

But we currently don't even know what bandle city looks like(does it look like in the early pictures or like in that small minigame with blitzcrank and the poros or like the city that we saw in the sad-mummy-video?) or whats the deal with yordles in general(are they spirits or do they just live very long?) and Piltover was never really fleshed out,I mean the champs who give us the best insight about piltover actually all come from zaun Ekko Jinx (though vi lives now in piltover),we know it has some high-class snobs,but thats about it.

And well from Jaredans recent post about jhins color story it sounds like they are about to ship some lore for champs who only have their short lores,so that will probably come in between.

Zaun and Piltover do in fact need some fleshing out, but they may be the least of the priorities for Riot to flesh out since we've had our share from some of the champions. Bandle city, on the other hand, really does need fleshing out since we really have no idea what it even looks like, nor have we had a new yordle champion in forever!

Another thing I might make a discussion about some other time is a Dark Side to Demacia. Noxus is built on a secret society acting as their dark side, Ionia's had their share but has recently fleshed out on it with Jhin , but all of our Demacian champions have usually been very goody two-shoe DEMACIAcracy (other than Shyvana , who's a tad outdated and doesn't really give us much of Demacia). I wanna see some kind of politically corrupt Demacian champion, or some prisoner who had escaped Demacia, or somebody who was a victim to their cruelly strict rules in the nation.

Well Fioras new lore gives already some insight to the darker side of demacia,as they take the whole honor thing to the extreme.

However thats also the reason why I think piltover could use an update,because piltover is even more of a goody-two-shoes state than demacia. I mean at least in demacias case we have fioras lore,but Piltover has only good/neutral champions and the only thing that even hints at a darker side is the guy who killed ajuna in ekkos comic,but that is just one person.
