Aurelion Sol's lore adds a whole new level to Targon

I love the lore for this guy. It makes me hate the targonians but I really enjoyed the story. I'm not sure if everyone understood this or if this is even correct, but it seems that the people that live on/around my targon aren't the targonians that tricked Sol. It seems that those beings which leons, Diana, pantheon are aspects of are the true targonians who somehow managed to not only travel space but traverse the stars.

Basically targon and its aspects are representative of the gods that used to inhabit targon and now travel space and have a city god knows where in the universe which they can drag people to from a portal at the peak of mt targon. Cool.

I like how Sols lore made him a character who is more than just an arrogant prick deity who believes all things are under him. He loves creating stars and looks at them like children to him. Remember the creation and caring for each one. It makes me despise targon. Not as much for tricking him into helping them, although that was plenty reason to dislike them, but for keeping him from his passion of creating and caring for stars. And then furthermore destroying that which is most beloved to him.

Last thing: The intentional use of pronouns in that story. Absolutely astounding. Great job lore team.

True, at the start he looked like a Villain that is gonna ruin Runeterra. But after reading his lore and hearing his quotes. He is a sarcastic and arrogant guy but is actually more a being of a higher order and has a duty and job. But then got forced to fight for Targon unless one of his stars will be destroyed. Seriously how fucked up can targon be? No one wants to see their lives work being destroyed and then being unable to do it again. Beneath all that sass and dickheaditude. He is suffering slave that is too dignified to show it. Talk about being a mentally tough mofo.
