#####~~ It ends now...~~

... well, actually tomorrow. And then we move on to the next stage. Anyway, today we have some longer stories again, and they are part of a larger arc. Both Sylas and Lucian got their fair share of lore this year, let's hope it is not the end.

Gib Novella pls

#####A long jouney

Today, both of our contestants hail from Demacia, but have since ventured far and wide. In the first story, Homebound, Lucian visits the Island of Venaru after a Harrowing. The young woman Mira is searching for her father, and helping her reminds Lucian of his own loss and why he fights. What he fights for. In the end, he sets sail for the Shadow Isles, knowing that he might never return... In the second story, Shackles of Belief, Raiders from the Winter's Claw find the strange man Sylas from the South. He is ill-prepared for the cold of the North, and Scarmother Vrynna offers him a swift death. However, things change when he defeats her Iceborn warrior with his own power - perhaps he could be of use for them...
