The Wolf and the Lamb Passive speculation

Okay, so this is probably a weird idea for a thread here. But I think it's connected to the lore of this new champion.

If they are the representation of Death, or life and death, Most likely two aspects of death, because if they both came from death, they can't be anything else than form what they originated: Lamb probably represents a peaceful death, while the Wolf represents the violent one. The passive for this champion could be that after a certain amount of time, it has to change to its other shape, i.e. if it was the Lamb, then when "the time runs out" it has to switch to Wolf, and the other way around. It would be similar to Gnar, but Gnar's transformation is governed by your usage of spells. Think about it.

When Death comes, it can't be outrunned. It can't be "stopped" (modern science would beg to differ, but hey, this is a fantasy world)

Pros of this passive? Wow never seen before Cons: imagine transforming in the middle of a teamfight. Will you even notice you became a lamb? Daym.

They aren't representations of life and death but rather both are personifications of death.

"There was once a pale man with dark hair who was very lonely."

Hint at being death, often depicted as a pale man dressed in black.

"Why was it lonely?" "All things must meet this man, so they shunned him."

Obviously death now, death is something all living creatures must eventually meet, but everyone tries to run away from or avoid

"Did he chase them all?" "He took an axe, and split himself in two." "So he would always have a friend?" "So he would always have a friend."

What I am seeing here is that death split himself in two out of loneliness, so the personifications wouldn't be Life and Death, but rather two different aspects of death. Think about their names, the wolf and the lamb. One is a common symbol of savagery and ill intent, while the other is a symbol of peace and innocence. My guess is the wolf represents those who died in violent or savage ways. and the lamb represents those who die peacefully such as old age or without regret

I think it is more likely that the 2 act together in some way,I mean they have a champ who seems to be based around consisting of 2 beings and then they turn it into a transformation champ?That doesn't use the full potential of the concept.

What if all their abilities are some sort of skillshot and whenever you use your abilities both will shoot their different skillshots,from different angles.
