Taliyahs impact on the rest of Runeterra

So is the relationship between and Taliyah going to be a teacher student thing. Or will there be some kind of romance involved?(Like with & or & ) How old is Taliyah? And was Taliyah maybe in a squad with when she was working for Noxus and knows about the murder of `s master. And since might actually a bad guy_** (with the rumor saying he is kind of a douchebag since he likes to enslave his own people)_ will Taliyah talk with _ (About stopping the enslaving of the people of Shurima). And will talk with ** (Since seems like a pretty nice guy) ._ Will there be event like the Bilgewater and Freljord event? Which faction will she meet in Freljord? (I think and her crew) Will you guys at Riot Games maybe release some story without it concerning ingame events or new champs?( Maybe bringing the newspaper back to life? ) Questions over questions. Almost like the Assasination Classroom opening.(Is actually a octupus?)

Would appreciate more theories. Maybe even from some Rioters who aren`t part of the champion & story design team.

Overall I think Taliyahs biggest impact will be in shurima itself.

I mean she might not see Yasuo ever again and I doubt she'll get involved in some big conflict in the freljord,because after all,she doesn't have much to do in that place. Though I think she might meet Udyr ,because udyr is/was in a very similar situation as her,since he had trouble controlling the animal spirits within him until he met lee sin(though currently its impossible to tell if this would fit in terms of timeline).

Also I guess Nasus is going to get involved with azirs politics either way,he doesn't need someone to tell him to do that.

Ashe and Tryndamere were in an arranged marriage, no love there. As for Azir, I don't think he's necessarily evil. The pharaohs of Egypt weren't inherently evil because they had slaves, it just came with the position of power as a given, like the palace, throne, etc, etc. You must understand, Azir has been buried for centuries up until this point, so he's trying to reestablish the status quo and reclaim his throne, and that does include the slave labor he once had. This doesn't make him evil though, because he's blinded by the privilege of his position and while he may be a bigot and inhumane, it's an act of ignorance more than anything. Nasus, while being free much longer than Azir, would most likely side with his emperor, because we don't know what values that Nasus still holds in regards to the high standing he once had in Shurima.

I would not scrap that maybe she would have a crush on Yasuo.
Azir was a benevolent leader. A dictator, but a kind one, and he was interested in his people's well-being and prosperity. Though, he got a little ahead of himself, hence the over-enthusiastic Ascension ritual, but even that was done with good intentions. The rumors that Taliyah heared in that taberns were just that, rumors. Besides, i don't think Azir would need slaves anymore, since he is able to rebuild Shurima by his own after his ascension, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYyuH1Bp2ZI he even upgraded Xerath into his magus and counselor when he was a slave, in fact, Azir freed the slaves. And maybe Azir could be able to put her on his part if she knew him or use her power to protect Shurima, ~~maybe to ascend her into a Sparrow Ascendant?~~
Id she gats a new master in Freljord, it could be Udyr since he had a similar problem with his rage, or even Lissandra , who has similar ~~but ice-themed~~ powers.

Based on how the story read, Taliyah is likely in her mid to late teens, somewhere around 16 to 19 years old.

And they have a teacher student relationship.
