> Each warrior slain or support who sacrificed themselves to save their ADC seeps into the gritted soil of Summoner’s Rift upon death, absorbed into the dirt, their life essence working its way past the tangled jungle roots and deep into the bedrock of the battlefield. There, the souls sit and sift over time, slowly being refined as the champions whose feet still tread above them gradually wear them down like a groove rubbed into a rock (with enough patience). And just before the soul slips into nothingness, when all that remains is the slightest grain of the mighty legend it once came from, the speck of soul drips to the deepest, bottom-most layer of Summoner’s Rift, crystallizing into a hardened crust of pure salt.

I was keenly interested and devoted into this short paragraph, enjoying how it sounded poetic, up until I read the last sentence and realised that it's now canon in LoL that the salt felt from dying on Summoners Rift literally manifests itself as actual sodium in the world. I haven't laughed this hard in a stupidly long time and felt the need to share my experience. Thanks Riot Tiger Lily, you made my day.
