Black Rose x Ionia

Ive mentioned this in replies but wanted to bring it to a greater context.

With the blantent horrible decision of the 'Dark Political group' releasing Jhin (an Ionian serial killer - as in he terrorized Ionia only) makes me 100% confident that this political group wants Ionia to fall to Noxus in the invasion. Why would any native Ionian want this? That got me wondering, the Black Rose is mainly political subterfuge so what if the Black Rose infiltrated the Ionian government by either members or mind control/propaganda?

Also, what if - since we know the Black Rose and Noxus are not one in the same but two seperate entities, the Black Rose started the Ionia/Noxus conflict to further some political agenda/gain power (not dissimuliar from how the Nazi party used anti-jewish propaganda after WWI to gain popularity - because alot of Germans at the time blamed Jews for the loss of WWI).

So maybe the Black Rose is pupeteering Noxus to invade Ionia because there is something in Ionia they desire?

Because he's damn good at killing, and for some people that's good enough.

Well though a timeline isn't present yet, I'd reckon the invasion was still kicked off by Boram, who didn't exactly hold the Black Rose is good regards. The potential of course does exist for the Black Rose to have pulled some strings to at least plant the idea of the invasion or perhaps just get it rolling, but I'd assume that Boram wanted to conquer Ionia because the magic of the land would work as a valuable resource for their nation.

Let's not forget Bard: Mountain, where Noxians invaded Ionian land years before the invasion to try and retrieve a magical artifact of immense power. Noxus might've been gunning for those as well.

While I think it is possible that members from the black rose have their influence in Ionia,I think it is unlikely that they are responsible for jhins release.

Jhin was released so that they have a good killer who is ready to commit atrocities to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. Someone who wouldn't complain about learning to use a gun and someone who wouldn't hesitate to kill a fellow ionian if they need to. Letting someone like him loose would be probably a big risk for the black rose.

Also it was never specified when he was released. It appears to me very likely that he was captured before the war and released after the war was already over.

They desire the broken fragments of Riven's blade so they can stop being executed by it. :P

I think you are a tad confused, Jhin was released to kill Noxians and that is all he is doing for the meantime. At least until he gets bored.
