Two Sides Of The Same Coin

sorry about your strategist/civil advisor, my liege. yeah they put him in the time loop. its very traumatising hes not having fun. i think it's a metaphor for the cyclical nature of history and/or the process of reading a story with a forgone conclusion, hoping against hope that everything will turn out all right this time, maybe. idk might be a reach. good news though! he's really really improved his relationship with zhou yu. they make out in like 64% of the iterations. there was this really homoerotic qin duet in iteration #2008 you had to have been there.

oh 12.65 litres of blood clinging to the outside of my body, we're really in it now

Hey ho I don't play league but I do play WR and LoR and I have read some of the lore so here goes:

The celestials associated with Targon are human hosts of the Aspects which are powerful beings from the celestial realm. The Aspects choose human hosts to give some of their powers to and the hosts (such as Leona, Diana, Zoe, Taric, Pantheon as well but he's different) enforce the Aspects' will on Runeterra. I don't think we know why the Aspects are so interested in Runeterra, but we do know they are against the Void. This page is great for more info.

Other celestial beings include Aurelion Sol, the creator of planets and galaxies but were tricked by the Targonians into wearing a restrictive crown and is now sealing Void rifts under their control/command; Bard, a mystical entity who kind of steps in when they are needed in extreme situations to prevent Runeterra falling into chaos; Soraka, once a celestial being filled with so much compassion she gave up her immortality in order to help the people of Runeterra; and some more.

I do believe that other than the Aspects and other celestial beings, everyone else is either of the Void or native to Runeterra.

For example, the Watchers are powerful entities who have existed since forever, and they look to destroy Runeterra for waking them from their eternal sleep by creating void rifts and learning more about Runeterra so they can either unleash armies of Void monsters to destroy everything or if possible to physically show up and do it themselves. Basically, they are the Void.

The Freljordian demi-gods include Ornn, Volibear and Anivia and more, and they are native to Runeterra. I'm not entirely sure what they are (oop) but they do have immense power far higher than most if not all mortals.

Janna is a wind goddess native to Runeterra whose strength depends on her followers. She was originally in Shurima but after she was no longer needed she went to Zaun, where the people prayed to her much more often in hopes of warding off the dangerous chemical fumes.

Nagakabourous is again native to Runeterra and is the god which Illaoi serves. I don't know much else as the lore surrounding them has changed quite a bit and I'm kinda confused :/

Even Kindred, who is pretty much the personification of death, is native to Runeterra (I think?).

Kayle and Morgana are the daughters of Mihira, Aspect host of Justice. Due to this they were born with powerful magic but they, like the other Aspect hosts, are native to Runeterra (only the Aspects themselves aren't).

Don't know if these really count but the Ascended are humans given celestial magic by the Sun Disc. The Darkin are Ascended who became corrupted by the Void. Thus these are all native to Runeterra.

Hope this helps, please correct me if I'm wrong or ask any more questions :)

Here is a question for all the League of legends lovers out there. Especially the ones who read the lore.

What separates the celestials from all the other gods worshipped on Runeterra?

I know that the celestials are littarly what the name implies, celestial gods representing different aspects, like war, twilight, etc.

But what about the other gods? Are they celestials too, or are they gods/godlike beings who are purely native to Runeterra?

I know that this might sound like a stupid question, but I am genuinely curious.

Film nerd is an exaggeration and you know it //:

Damn I wonder who said this (fine, one film nerd plus another entity)

To all acespec knights, this week belongs to you! I want you to know that you deserve to take space, to be recognized, and you deserve to be seen. This week is the ideal time to remember that asexuality is a valid and wonderful part of our world - shout it loud and clear! And, above all, stay proud ⚔️💪

It's complete! I am very proud of this piece. It is many firsts - drawing Lotus Tower, drawing a seascape, drawing a funky little bird.

I am also disappointed that it doesn't quite match the feelings present in the original concept I had. But I do like how the sea and the clouds evoke something restless or chaotic, in contrast with the straight, sure lines of Lianhua Lou.

Not quite sure what to name this one yet, but once it has a title it might go up on my inprnt. It will also be posted to my IG shortly.

"I'm sorry. Did I come too late?"

My dream of dreams for Arcane season 2 is to have a sweet little montage of Vi ans Jinx just running around causing chaos in Zaun to this song. Just them having fun together as sisters again and nothing else matters for them.
