Moredekaiser VGU: shadow isles update part 2

Now considering that Mordekaiser has been confirmed to be tier 1 in vgu priority alongside Irelia and Swain , I think it’s safe to say his vgu is this year. Shortly after Zoe’s release we get a nice update of Mount Targon that has told us a lot more about the landscapes, people and lore of the region. Although it is a near certainty that mordekaiser will get his VGU this year Nobody knows what direction it will take or whether he will still be affiliated to the shadow isles but the under assumption that he still is I think his vgu would be a perfect time to either expand or continue the shadow isles lore and story. If they extend it is like how they did with taragon I’d hope to see

  • the haunted and grim landscapes of the isles
  • a categorization of all the undead
  • the lairs ,castles or ruins where dangerous creatures and undead entities reside
  • a look at what the isles looked like before the ruination
  • and more information on the black mist : is it a malevolent sentient entity or pure corrupted magic ?

If the story is continued it could go three ways

  • continue Lucians quest for vengeance
  • mordekaiser leading an assault on Noxus or another mainland area
  • or go at a completely different viewpoint of a old or new character

Whether riot decides to add or follow up on the shadow isles lore with mordekaisers vgu is anyone’s guess but I just hope that we get more of these mini regional updates cause runeterra is big and it’s nice to get a more detailed scope of all the lands in it( especially considering all the isles and continents we know about are only 1/6 of runeterras world map.

Honestly I think the direction they have in his current lore is pretty solid already and I doubt it will change at all.

In general I'd like to see some more "race"-categories on the universe page. Currently there is only the vastaya page,but Mordekaisers VGU could give us a page for undead.

Though such a page would not really add that much(since every undead champ got already a lore update),so a continuation of Mordekaisers story would definetly be more important.

I don't think Morde is this year. I would say Nunu or Mundo would get updates before Mordekaiser, but it would be nice to get some updates on Mordes/Shadow Isles lore since he has been resurrected and wants to retake the Immortal Bastion.
