So what we learned from the Harrowing chapters

In no particular order...

Hecarim, the shadow of war, used to be an actual man Olaf wanted to die a glorious death and become a fucking legend ("Did that beast just shit you out?") Miss Fortune wants to take back control of Bilgewater (after surviving the Harrowing) Rafen's an awesome dude Lucian still grieves to this day for Senna (not sure if learned but reiterated) Lucian learned Senna wasn't killed, she was captured Illaoi worships this Nagakabourous Illaoi doesn't like the dead coming back The black mist claims your soul and you become trapped in it Hecarim is the leader of these souls (feel free to add on anything else)

Note: I have not actually read any of their lore. This is just what I got from the story lol.

Wait.....I just realized, where does Karthus tie in to all of this? Why was he not part of the Harrowing? The master of death should totally have a chance to be in the Harrowing. When does Karthus come? Q_Q

I don't quite understand what you mean by was corrupted we already knew about Olafs will to die from his lore and we already knew that Lucian still loved his wife I And technically hec is only the leader of his spectral soldiers and it's not that illaoi doesn't like the dead coming back ( it is implied that she knows Gankpank is still alive ) it's that she doesn't like them entering her house of worship .

With senna still being alive that brings back the possibility of her A future champion

We knew already that sennas soul was captured(lucian just didn't know about it) and just because sennas soul was stolen doesn't mean she wasn't killed,she was first killed and then her soul was taken.

Also I guess karthus was simply elsewhere in bilgewater,or maybe on different places. Karthus doesn't seem to agree with the methods of thresh and hecarim,so maybe he didn't want to get associated with them.

Senna was killed. Unless their a soulless body walking around somewhere (that would be an awesome champion btw)

I don't think Hecarim was corrupted. The extended backstories make it seem like he was heavily responsible for the Ruination. Hecarim's old appearance was misleading. He seemed like an honorable warrior, and that is how he deceived the Ruined King and Kalista.

As for Karthus. He could have been at different invasion point for the Black Mist. No reason to believe that Bilgewater is the only place effected by the Black Mist.
