    It really feels like a story wrote by a book writer. Not saying other Riot's work is bad, it's fkin awsome actually, but the way this one was written really made me feel like I'm reading some kind of old-fashioned fantasy book. And I seriously felt sad at the end of it. I can't even describe how awsome work Riot is doing with LoL's lore.

    Man Necrit, you never fail to give these stories a life they never have on the page. The writing recently has been amazing, and this bit especially moved me.
    I felt the pride and courage Jax inspired in Axamuk. I felt his horror when the God Asended came crashing upon their ranks. His overwhelming fear and the weeping in retreat. I truly felt their inhuman strength when bodies And heads were being thrown like pieces of exploded vegetables.
    I knew Jax had to be hiding so much pain when he let Axamuk stay, but it shows us Jax values choice above everything, even having a single companion to live through the end of the world with.
    Im so glad we finally know more about the void, and Jax especially. Being so old, its nice to see his existence be kept the same, yet be given true humanity so he isn't just a living meme anymore.

    i think that there is two types of voidborns ones that are originally born from the void itself (kha, velkoz, cho, kog,and reksai,baron and malzahar's voidlings) others are creatures corrupted by it (like the hawks and the lama from kai'sa's comic,rift scuttle,malzahar,and voidspawns from the zz'rot iteam),true voidborns when they first come out from the void they lose their original form like shown in the artworks but eventually they take their form again and form a unique exoskeleton depending on what they consume and how fast they adapt also they lose the purple coloration the more time they spent outside the void like kog (green color as adaptation to camouflage in the jungles) and chogath who adapted a rocky like skin based from his artwork...but the most dangerous void rifts are the ones in the deep sea because the sea itself thrive with life and the void there will never starve and it seems that not only animal life forms are affected but plants too like the seaweed in nami's comic.

    A few important details that stand out to me from this tale, in no particular order except that I’m putting what I believe is the most important last:
    - Icathia was conquered 1000 years before these events, which also occurred long before Azir was born and the fall of Shurima. Sets a certain timeframe, and reinforces how old Shurima is cuz gahddam
    - Plenty of others pointed this out but I actually didn’t realize it the first time: Sijax is Jax, and he’s old af
    - This is more conjecture, but that vulture guy may have had the chance to turn the tide of history but was thwarted by one confused soldier
    - Two details point to the void having had a standing presence in Runeterra, ie this was not the first time it appeared. Firstly, that the Icathians “found” a weapon deep in the earth, and secondly that the vulture god warrior recognized the void. I know there’s a rift in the sea and another in the freljord, and I’m not sure which between the three is the oldest, but I guess Shurima was aware of something regarding them. I wonder how the void first made its way to Runeterra

    Saijax is Jax for sure- he eats eggs, he is recognized as a master of all weapons, and he did get hurt badly by something different (probably the void) which can explain how jax became a void human figure, and explains how he is still alive. This story was amazing, thank you necrit!

    • @cheesaac

    Given that we know Azir’s ancestors were essentially expansionists that built their empire on slave labor, I wonder how much time passed between this story and Azir’s rule.
    One interesting note is this story implies that Ascension is more common than Nasus, Renekton, and Azir’s lore led us to believe. Each Shuriman army has a host of Ascended Warriors. Were Nasus and Renekton the only Ascended left by Azir’s time?
