"A Good Death": let's see if "Foundations" did their work correctly on this one, a few questions

Photos of Ghosts··6 votes·1,126 views
  • Where are Jandelle and Needlebrook located?
  • So there are places where the Kindred are visible to mortals? What are those places? Just any cemetery, or special sites of Kindred adoration?
  • In what city is the Golden Round located?
  • Is there a big problem of security in the non-urbanified parts of Runeterra? Or is it just some regions, some "holds" where the power is weaker, the borders...

I think the Kindred appeared before Maaga becuase:

  1. Her troupe was all about to die except her.
  2. As they said they enjoyed her acting so as such Lam caused her to struggle with sleep which led to her wandering away from the camp. (Oh look a reason for thier ultimate Lamb's Respite!!!) 3)They wanted an actor to protray them more accuratly.

I was waiting for Rengar to jump on the wolf and kill it, "You've earned a good death, I've earned the kill"..

WTF how can one possibly get the idea of downvoting me on this one? o.0

It's probably due to the unnecessarily contentious tone.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/contentious Uhm. You mean the title? But that's what I wanted to know, if it has been prepared on the base of the Foundation work on Runeterra's universe, or if it is yet another independent thing that could take place anywhere and anywhen. Why should I have been hypocritical and have said it differently?

The first location was in Ionia. Mentioned a state inbetween plague and war (Zaun and Noxus). The second location was in Demacia, mentioned a king and queen, Demacia only state with a regality.

The old map is non canon so that lines doesn't give us much information as to were exactly the first location is. Also we can't be entirely sure that the second place is Demacia, there might be other states that have never been mentioned before.

The old map may be not canon but each city state is still gona stay in relative position as they are now (Ionia bordering Zaun and Noxus).

True, other city states may exist but none have been announced. The only city state to have a royalty for the last four years would be Demacia.

A troupe of actors travel alot, these are just locations theyve been paid to perform in. A Good Death hasnt told us where these characters come from, just a few places theyve been.

It would be nice to get an answer on this but I'm certain it will be left ambiguous.

This is a really similar scenario to the unnamed kingdom in Tahm Kench's lore that he takes the gambler too. The problem with Tahm Kench and Kindred is that they are ancient. So it not only begs the question of where does this story take place but when?

Jandelle and Needlebrook could be anywhere in Runeterra. They could also be from anytime in Runeterra.

For all we know those settlement could have later became Demacia in current king.

Well, first of all, that piece was not written by the Foundations team, but as a part of the development process for Kindred.

Also, defining the location and similar details, while nice, would hardly impact upon the effect of the tale, which is about defining the character of the Kindred.

Foundations doesn't write pieces of lore, it makes the foundations for who makes our lore. So if someone defined the geography and stuff of this, it was Foundations.
