Arcane: The Complete League of Legends Lore Timeline Explained

the city of piltover and zon are only a tiny portion of jinx and VI's planet called Runa which has a rich history spanning thousands of years even billions once we start to uncover the secrets of the universe's creation itself however in Runa one thing has stayed constant humans discovering new ways of harnessing the Arcane or the unknown and it backfiring on their faces why do you think Heimerdinger is so afraid of utilizing the power of hextech in season 1 because in his over 300E lifespan he has literally witnessed the sinking of the previous country of

Z due to human hubris and with Arcane season 2 heavily involving one of the major superpowers of this planet the Empire of noxus let me break down the entire timeline of Arcane and the League of Legends Universe including all of the major Champions will be seeing in the next series or movies set in R Tera billions of years before the creation of the known universe there was a void of emptiness or at least this is what the beings who lived in that nothingness belief these were the Watchers who existed in a reality so dark and

empty they didn't even understand that they themselves were alive they had eyes but there was nothing to see ears yet nothing to hear bodies with nothing to touch that is until deep within the void a light appeared in an instant the Watchers were made aware of their own existence and this angered them for Untold histories the void had only known a peaceful Slumber but suddenly here was this light disrupting their way of living or at least their way of not living as the Watchers approached the light to examine it they found a peephole into reality

which was ever expanding into their domain they watched as the first celestials came into being from the celestial realm some were formless and needed to be contained in objects like the champion Bard While others took all shapes and sizes including the great dragons aurelian soul and in VIIs Vox aelian Soul spread light through the universe leaving traces of himself everywhere he traveled which would merge with Cosmic dust to form planets and stars most were empty worlds however occasionally life would Sprout on these planets when it came to one such Planet an unknown group of celestials

would gather world runes to create run Terra the world Arcane takes place in and it orbits one of aurelian Soul Stars yep Jinx and vice World literally orbits this giant dragon in space this brings us to 9,000 years before the creation of noxus now the calendar of noxus is called BN or before noxus so if I say BN that's what I'm referencing and currently the stuff that's happening in Arcane takes place about 9970 years after the creation of noxus so just giving you guys a heads up during these early years of run tera's existence the

first seeds of life began to bloom into primordial spirits nagakabouros and the gry men claimed dominion over life and death the first demons like fiddle sticks and ashush became known as the 10 Kings and the earliest urles similar to Heimerdinger like Nar and Fizz appeared in the spirit realm this wave of yordles founded an early bandal City around the bandal wood tree beginning to create small gateways to the Physical Realm the continents and islands of Runa slowly began to take shape around this time also for example the Blessed Isles where maai would find the spring

of life and use it to create a lush and beautiful Forest full of saplings and nature Spirits at the same time in the guardian sea Fizz joined the early ocean civilizations until the galons brought them to ruin resulting in Fizz going into shock and hibernating for a millennium he'll be back though meanwhile up in the far north likely where Jace and his mother met that mysterious Mage in season 1 who gave him that world room the icy demigods or Vol bear anevia Lear and the seal sisters were born and began terraforming the vard a place

which would eventually become the fiord after the demigods were Mortals trolls minotaurs yetis and of course Humanity would begin to gather in early civilizations which brings us to the Far East on Ionia where people began to live in harmony with nature and the spirit realm on vard they gathered in tribes to worship the demigods and in ancient camore they formed a great Kingdom these early humans of the first lands eventually found their way into a war with a race of Sky Giants known as the Titans the enlightened Mortals of Ionia took power from the spirit

realm to become the first vastaya shy who would later be Zia and Ran's ancestors with this new power in hand that Titans were ultimately defeated and the vastaya shy started Living with Humanity it wouldn't be long until the two groups cross spread creating the first of the vashay these vasaya would set off on their own to create tribes named after their vasaya shy some choosing to live in sharima While others immigrated for example the Kash moved to the Jungle of sharima while the marai lived in the waters west of targon as the ionians battled the

Titans fiord was founded in the north a unification which took over a thousand years the three sisters I mentioned earlier avarosa Shela and Leandra were born and dedicated their lives to finding a way to control the vast and Powerful magic of this world which might give us a hint to why Heimerdinger was so reluctant to meddle with magic in season 1 that's that's why the show is called Arcane you guys because by using this Arcane power avarosa was deafened when she faced the twisting dark beneath the world shirala lost her voice to the first Twilight

when she tried to command the heavens and LeAndre aimed to take control of the magic of the demigods meanwhile anivia wanted to try and talk things out with the sisters or just Farm until 30 minutes to get all of our items but Vol bear wanted to dive the turrets and start a goddamn War he asked or and and his followers to create weapons and armor for him but they refus resulting in a fierce battle between the two brothers which ended with volibear taking or's Rune inscribed armor and destroying all of his worshippers next was Leandra

volibear hunted her down and blinded her with his claws defeated in front of her enemy Lander turned to the art of dreamwalking to communicate with the Watchers who still reside in the void to make a deal with them it's kind of like making a deal with the devils to be honest but I'll get to that in just a bit these Watchers would give the sisters and their followers near immortality and the power to conquer the frelard and in exchange she would prepare Runa for the arrival of the Void why would you do that with this

new power the sisters easily defeated the demigods and forced or to create the howling Abyss yo that's where Aram takes place meanwhile Ivor the crewel a fian Marauder grew angry with the sisters his War band set out to the Sea in the hopes of finding a way to stop them discovering the Eastern first lands where magic was set to originate honestly I'm with IV here bro they're they're trying to summon the void somebody has to stop them here they discovered the god Willow and battled the Trees of aan Guardians in an attempt to break the

enemy's resolve ivn cut down the god Willow but in doing so he himself was transformed into the sapling of the next God Willow Tree around 8,000 years before noxus the sisters started to among them threatening the rule and stability of fiord they could not agree on what the future of their domain should look like and leanders deal with the Watchers displeased her sisters they believed serving these otherworldly beings would only lead to destruction something they could physically see as the sky grew darker and the winds grew colder with each passing day read the signs people

ultimately landre lured her sisters to her Frost guard Citadel but as they approached the sister began to manifest into the fiord from the howling Abyss creating voidborn prototypes like Vela as they crossed into Runa seeing the unbelievable Horrors and Chaos she had Unleashed LeAndre realized she realizes now but not when everybody was trying to stop you you are made of stupid lre realized how terrible a mistake she had made with no options left she drained her allies the yetis and gar of their magic converting them to the feral monsters they once were this is why

Nar can't speak but this wasn't enough she also needed to sacrifice her sisters and their armies to perform an ancient ritual which inomed the Watchers and Nar in true ice essentially locking them halfway between the void and Runa with fiord more or less secured while landre watches over the Watchers we can move to 6,000 years before noxus with the westward migration settlers from the Lost camoran Continent travel to sharima and valeron bringing all of their ancient knowledge wisdom and magic with them and founded several vital new nations and cities which would grow into the greatest

Empires Runa has ever known one group called The vuru settled on the serpent Isles and managed to summon the power of the nagak kaboro just a bit east a group of Scholars would make their way to the Blessed Isles where they met with Malai who gave them the location of the Blessed Water of Life meanwhile scar would build the Cardinal archology as a gift to the people of ichal those who lived there began dedicating themselves to mastering Elemental Magic with scarner and became the first of the yal in sharima Nim math is created as the

new nation's capital south of the continent eia was founded as a magocracy under its first Mage King and in a SE Port called OSHA vazon that's where zon is between sharima and valeron the wind spirit Jana was worshiped as a savior who appeared in moments of Need For Those at Sea this nation would eventually become the Z or the birthplace of jinx and F finally way out in the west Humanity discovers Mount hargon and creates a theocracy around the celestials which created the mountain here they also come into contact with the aspects who live beyond

Runa in a Celestial realm after 1,000 years of expansion these civilizations were ready to take the next steps towards becoming a massive world power by gobbling up smaller Nations like Zan by 5,000 years before noxus the ancient shans followed the instructions of taron's aspects and used the sundisk in their Capital to create the first ascended these guys wielded godly power allowing sharima to become a major world power the warrior Queen sataka wields the chalar which would later become civer weapon it harnesses power from Beyond talk argon which she raises to the sky at the birth

of Shara eventually an attempt at Ascension would fail and the sundisk was destroyed and so the shariman would build a bigger and more powerful sundisk with the help of the iali Mages when this sundisk was completed the Oasis of dawn appeared within it spreading its life giving water throughout the desert and forming the mother of Life Rivers this was the official establishment of the sherean Empire and as it began its expansion it swallowed up countless smaller cities and Nations including ichal and oshra vzon by 3,400 years before noxus sharima had cemented itself in history as

its power grew so did its number of enemies and along the South Coast an invading Force attacked the city of old zoretta here Renekton would make his stand and fended off the enemies alone earning him the title of gatekeeper of sharima he held off these Invaders long enough for his brother NASA to arrive with reinforcements and ultimately sharima remains safe meanwhile eia's Council constantly bombarded the shariman emperor with requests to ascend some of their more talented citizens to give them some kind of say in the Empire the denial of this request only stood to worsen

shara's political position and ultimately zillian was sent to these smaller Nations and ichal to gather allies for an eathan independence movement however no one was willing to oppose sharima and its ascended better to be a nation within their borders than to be wiped off the map right this is a sentiment I'm sure a lot of zoites would agree with in Arcane after vander's failed Revolution before the start of the series due to the fear of the enforcers and now even a bigger fish noxus is knocking on piltover's door to basically Annex them in season 2

in fact in season 2 with noxus flexing its muscles even more towards the technology of piltover this dilemma will be majorly felt but back to the past sharima would continue its Rule and dominance until 2500 years before noxus but this is where they would begin to falter it all started with an earthquake in sabera which revealed a void Rift where the Watchers live a cathian Mages had discovered it during a journey to their capital and believed it could be used as a source of power to fight for their independence the Council of eia instituted a

new Mage King and rein St at the Royal Guard with saacks being a founding member zillian opposed all of this still hoping to work things out diplomatically but his pleas fell on deaf ears inside of AIA it is suddenly a crime to be sherean any citizen found to be from the Empire is immediately put to death or banished as they ready themselves for the upcoming War sherean towns such as the one Varys comes from were attacked and pillaged by the cians and in some cases where they managed to slay ascendants like Jax did with BAC

these cities were each liberated from sharima bro this dude ja killed the goddamn ascendant with a lamp post he's he's built different but this disrespect would not stand and so a force of sherean ascendant led by Queen sataka herself was sent to eia with a massive Army this was all part of aia's plan and as the enemies approached they tore open the void Rift hoping it would consume them however that did not happen instead countless voidborn began crawling into Runa as they corrupted the land they tread upon an unbelievable battle would take place with some

ascendant like atro experiencing Horrors beyond belief While others like sataka would simply be killed in a last ditch effort a zillian collected as many eathan citizens in his Tower as possible and then removed the tower from time in order to save them from the terror of this battle however he had no way of bringing them back and so to this day they remain Frozen in Time as he searches for a way to save them a real turn in the battle would come with nazuk this was a god Warrior from ichal with immense Elemental Magic who

promised he could create a weapon to defeat the void in AIA and so he produced The Floating Fortress the monolith which he and other great Mages controlled from within however this weapon of living Rock was one down and eroded over weeks of battle and ultimately it crashed into the Earth only serving to spread the void Rift even more huge portions of the monolith vanished into the void and only nezuk survived he pulled himself from the rubble and made his Escape leaving only one piece of his great monolith behind which would eventually become malite in the

future a final option was put forth by an ascendant Warrior called huro who wielded the nether blade that cidan has in the future to cut cut at the roots of the Void while ascendant twins Sabaka and sabak assisted in sealing the rift and stopping its spread while eaia fought for its independence and became overrun by the void sharima faced its own threats from within all of azir's brothers were killed in an attack however he was saved by zerth in the last moment because of this azir promised to free zerth and all of sharima slaves when

he became emperor to ensure azir would be able to fulfill This Promise caused all of his future Brothers to be stillborn and when one finally survived he opted to kill the queen to stop the problem at its source from here he decided to kill the standing Emperor azir's father as well this dude's crazy there was simply no reason to wait for the young king to become emperor anymore in zari's mind when azir takes the throne he vows to take revenge against those who killed his parents and zarth ensures him that the cause was Mages from

another kingdom you [ __ ] rat zar believed azir would immediately free the slaves as promised however every time he brings it up azir deflects the conversation he was working on a solution in secret while he continued to expand the Empire however zerth refused to wait and instead decided to try and steal the throne from his old friend in the year 2000 BN azir's priests prepared to perform the Ascension ritual on him and as a last act before ascending he frees all of shara's slaves much to Zero's surprise he had planned to betray azir and

become emperor himself but now there was no reason to do that however his plans were already in motion and there was no way to stop him so zerth interrupts azir's Ascension killing him and becoming ascendant himself in disrupting the ritual so much magical energy was released that the entire sherean Capital collapsed killing its citizens and burying itself under the desert zerth despite being a son was locked in the Tomb of the Emperors with Renekton where he started to corrupt the crocodile's mind slowly picking away and driving him mad just a bit more with each passing

day with shima's downfall ichal and zon declared their independence however scarner was left deeply distrustful of the world outside of ichal as a result of what he had seen without a true Emperor the remaining ascended of sha the god warriors were left in control of Runa by means of a shake Alliance and over time many of them fell to their own Ambitions they believed that they rightfully deserved to rule the world and that all Mortals should be enslaved and forced to worship them as a result the surviving humans began referring to these Fallen God Warriors

as the darken over time the darken would use Ancient magic to craft their flesh and armor together until they were hideous monsters who waged Wars against one another to demonstrate dominance however some kingdoms such as kamore in the continent far to the east would make pacts with the darken they offered a young Vladimir to the darkin in exchange for kovor safety however within a year of living under these tyrants Vladimir was corrupted they taught him blood magic and sent him back to camore to destroy the kingdom he even took his father's head to his master

as a gift meanwhile in targon Zoe's previous aspect host Misha LED an ascended named Kari to nasses so they could be given the location of the chalar would be enough to end the war and unite the darken tanari gathered several of the ascended and suggested that azir's descendant be given the chisar and become their next ruler however another ascended called suan refused and tried to steal the chisar chaos erupted and so tanari and Misha used the chalar to channel their life into an attack which killed most of the darken present that's why they needed all

the darken in one place anari was conver it back to being human as a result of the attack and Misha then killed them before approaching her three greatest warriors and taught their weapon Smiths to seal the darken away into weapons meanwhile the new aspect of War Pantheon begins uniting people to fight against the darkin seeing this threat on the horizon Vladimir's darken Master ordered him to March their armies against this new enemy however Vladimir betrayed him killing his master and absorbing some of his power to become effectively Immortal he wasn't the only master of blood

magic though the ascendant xani used hemomancy to try and end the war by weakening all living beings ultimately pitting her against atrox by 550 BN the remaining darkens such as atrox Varys and Rost had been defeated and sealed away in weapons bringing an end to the darken war with the darken defeated the world would know relative peace for about a century however let's check in what's happening in the far north in the wildlands a warlord named shaan uzal crushed every tribe he came across uzal was driven by the belief that in death he would be

seen as a champion earning him a place at the table of the Gods for his Conquest however when he died he found a gray empty Wasteland covered in fog he began to question himself had his faith been wrong was his Conquest not impressive enough as uzal continued to watch the other wraiths Fade Into the fog with time his anger continued to grow and he refused to become another ghost lost to time held together purely by his own rage and ego Shan uzal began to make a plan he whispered through the veil between Realms promising his

power to any who would listen and eventually he was rewarded a coven of sorcerers were convinced to bring him back from the dead oh boy another piece of ancient power or strong power that humans can't control messing with the world once again this dude uzal wanted them to make him stronger than any mortal so they bound his soul to a dark steelplate armor rather than flesh and Bone and so he arose a Revenant of iron and hatred the sorcerers wished to use him to fight their Wars for them but in an instant the spirit slaughtered

all of them he had been reborn and now he was free shaan uzal was gone and mor Kaiser's Conquest had officially began in noxus his first action was to construct The Immortal Bastion to become the center of his Empire with this in place he started conquering and enslaving anyone who went against him including a group of noxy Mages who studied ancient Celestial magic among them was a yal just like Heimerdinger named vagar who Mizer captured and trapped in the physical world for centuries vagar was forced to create enchantments that empowered Mizer and his M all

the while the innocent yal was slowly corrupted by the evil which surrounded him meanwhile on the coasts of the Eastern valeron Vladimir demanded the worship and sacrifices of local tribes eventually he was approached by LeBlanc a member of mizer's inner circle LeBlanc is still alive in the future by the way and she's going to be influencing the events in season 2 of Arcane she was kind of tired and sick of Mor Kaisers [ __ ] all right so Vladimir and LeBlanc plotted to use the KNX against Mizer in 100 years before the founding of noxus

they managed to sever the soul from Mor kiser's armor sending it back to the grey realm or Brazil where he continues to build power to make his return one day oh my God the gray world can be read as like you know you know where you die in League of Legends and you have the gray screen yo that's actually sick I just realized that man I've been working on this script man no way I I just realized that that's so cool W Riot like this is peak now let's move further east from where noxus and

even Ionia is and if you go on the universe map website you'll notice that we don't see anything that's east of Ionia well there is a continent way to the east called camore however 1,000 years ago the events I'm about to explain to you guys its knowledge has been lost to the greater wound Tera that exists now so people from pilt over and on they probably don't even know camore exists because it's way past the Shadow Isles so 25 years before the founding of noxus 70 years after taking the Throne of camore vigo's Reign began

to crumble when he felt deeply in love with a seamstress named Isolde they quickly married but vigo's obsession with this new bride made him neglect his kingdom as his Nation unraveled enemies conspired to end his rule assassins were sent but kalista vigo's niece saved him probably by using her ult though the queen was not so fortunate Isolde was struck by a poisoned blade and her condition worsened despite the efforts of cavour's finest doctors and Scholars desperate to save her Vigo turned to a rumor about the Blessed Isles and their Waters of Life sending Kista to

retrieve them kalista's Quest was perilous sailing with Captain venx on the dagger Hawk they tried to reach the Blessed Isles but were thed by the magical Mists losing hope they sought help from the neighboring serpent ises but the vuru offered no assistance so kalista had no choice but to turn to a shady Traer named Radu feros who claimed he could guide her to a Seer named saraka however after a fruitless search kalista found only a cryptic message about a golden Maiden being her guide she dismissed it as useless and returned to venx only to discover

Radu had betrayed them and his men slaughtered their crew believing their mission had failed kalista and venx prepared to return to camore alone on their way back they encountered a ship under attack by vastaya after rescuing its passengers they met the Seer Adept Tyrus and his Apprentice rise remarkably the ship's Figure Head resembled the golden Maiden from the Sear's message realizing its significance kalista begged Tyrus for help reluctantly he agreed and with the use of a magical wayist stone they navigated through the mist and reached Helia the Blessed is's Capital despite kalista's urgent plea for

the Waters of Life Helia Council delayed their decision during their wait an artificer named jendaya introduced kalista to Relic weapons capable of harnessing magic this is similar to Pal Jace using he stick and the Arcane can wield weapons however this was a very rudimentary form over a thousand years ago after a week the council refused her request citing that Isolde wasn't present for the ritual Furious kalista prepared to leave but erock gell the warden of thresholds Yep this is thresh secretly gave her a small vial of the Waters of life and a Way Stone hoping

to gain power in camore by aiding her hooked her bro he hooked k with that vile though kalista was wary of his motives she accepted and hurried back to camore upon her return kalista found that Vigo had succumbed to his madness he spent lavishly on false cures for Isolde and after weeks of waiting she had already died consumed by grief vle locked himself in a tower with his old days corpse using Mel's chalice yeah that's an item to slow her decomposition down his neglect allowed Ed the kingdom to fracture with regions like taros seceding but

Vio responded with brutality sending heckum and his Iron Order to crush any Rebellion kalista heartbroken and seeing no hope refused to reveal the Waters of life to Vigo in retaliation Vigo branded her a traitor and had her imprisoned and tortured by heum eventually she was forced to lead an expedition back to the Blessed ises accompanied by hecm venex and corpse of ISE also Vigo himself upon arrival Vigo begged the scholars and Healers of Helia to revive ISE but only yorck a member of the Brethren of dusk stayed to assist yorck could speak with the dead

he reassured Vio that isde had passed on peacefully and mentioned a figure called Gwen though this calmed vgo for a Time thresh tempted him again claiming The Well of Ages could fully revive is oldi d by desperation Vio commanded kalista to destroy anyone who stood in his way however kalista refused and stood alongside hela's Defenders but heam betrayed her striking her down the Iron Order overwhelmed elia's forces and Vigo and gell reached The Well of Ages there Vigo submerged isolde's corpse but the resurrection went horribly wrong a world Rune beneath the well destabilized the magic

and Isolde returned as a rap consumed and and Furious in her torment she seized vigo's enchanted sword and drove it through his heart the cursed blade and the Well's unstable magic caused a catastrophic event unleashing the black mist across the Blessed aisle as the Mist consumed Helia only a few survivors remained protected by tyrus's Magic among them were jendaya rise and venex in the aftermath jendaya inspired by kalista's sacrifice out to fight the black mist founding a new generation of the Sentinels of light meanwhile kamore drained of resources and Leadership collapsed into ruin fading from

history as its Legacy was lost to time after Helia destruction a few remaining members of an ancient order from the Blessed Isle set out on a mission to gather and protect the most dangerous artifacts in run Tera as they struggled to hide knowledge of the world runes or the Arcane as as this secret slowly continued to slip Nations became untrusting and fearful of each other as suddenly many groups had access to weapons powerful enough to wipe out their enemies in the blink of an eye this cold war would stand for about 12 years bringing us

to 13 years before the founding of noxus this is when two rival noxy Nations approach to Tyrus at the Village of K ultimately the power of the two World runes would be used here with com and the surrounding territories completely destroyed in an instant this was the spark which erupted the world in magical Warfare entire nations are wiped off the map all over the world and so Tyrus and Rise begin to collect the world runes to put them into hiding so they can't be abused any further however just like the ring of power Tyrus himself

tried to use these runes and Rise was forced to kill his master vowing that he would never use the world runes himself and positioning himself as their protector going forward meanwhile in sharima a group of soldiers are attacked by the Flora in The Gardens of zeir only for a Sorcerers to ignite The Gardens and destroy everything in the area leaving it lifeless for hundreds of years until Zyra emerges From the Ashes at the same time in ichal scarner convinced the yunai to close the borders and hide themselves Away by bending nature around them as a

shield completely isolating them from the rest of Runa then in the western part of valoran refugees take shelter under a forest where trees are imbued with magic nullifying petricite effectively protecting them from the world runes here they established the first theasian city named Zira a man named kilam who was married to the aspect of Justice miera fears her Divine powers and flees to zaphira with his daughters kale and Morana in hopes that the petricite will hide them from their mother's sight as the Rune Wars come to a close a group of warrior Mages separate themselves

from their flesh to enter the spirit realm where they try to conquer this new world their dark magic corrupts the thoughts of Mortals all over wuna and gives cause for even more horrific Act s in the war ultimately resulting in the creation of the demon nocturn who begins to hunt down each dark Mage to end their rule the Rune wars were about a decade of apocalyptic battles but with its end most of the modern civilizations of Runa are established during this conflict the remaining noxy are forced to take shelter in the immortal Bastion by the

time they emerg the surrounding area had been ravaged and left Barren by the magical for fall out but all the same they survived this hardship unified them as a single people no longer were they several noxy tribes from this day on they would be known as noxus and they marked their calendars to reflect the birth of their nation in the west the Legendary Champions Orion and Poppy arrive in Deasia and become beloved Heroes when Orion died he passed his hammer onto poppy saying it should be in the hands of the hero of damasius Orland believed

poppy could keep damasius safe and whole and help it develop into a great nation but poppy not realizing that Orlon meant her vowed to find this great hero meanwhile the celestial powers of kale and Morana awaken and are used to protect damasa from threats such as atrox and his followers eventually Morana learns of a hidden wave of enemies attacking the city and leaves the front line to save them but kale simply believed her sister was abandoning the fight kale began leading a judicious order to enforce the law and hunt down Rebels as Morana tried to

rehabilitate anyone humble enough to admit guilt however Kale's followers started resenting Morana and Kale's protoe ronus even tried to imprison her though he died in attempting this kale was so angered at this that she summoned a Divine fire to cleanse the city of its sins but Morana did all she could to protect the innocent their battle would rage above damasi until their father kilam cried out as he died in the collateral damage seeing this both sisters chose to leave damasa over time the identity of the sisters is forgotten but as the kingdom of damasa puts

in place its first royal family in year 292 the winged Sisters still act as the symbol of their Nation the Masia soon began looking for ways to incorporate petricite into their military and the sculptor Duran is hired to make a moving petricite Shield however instead he constructed Gallo a living petricite Golem when a force of invading Mages attacked Gallo souped in to protect damasi and soldiers however after the battle he returned to his pedestal and stopped moving leaving his story to fall into Legend meanwhile in noxus the noble houses aim to unify all of Runa

under one Banner establishing the Empire of noxus they immediately began annexing the surrounding territories in year 772 a vazon put in place a plan to use thousands of chemtech bombs to destroy isus this is a region connecting valeron and the shariman continent in doing so they'd be able to create a safe and efficient passage for sea travel between eastern and western valeron however disaster Dr the bombs triggered a catastrophic earthquake which not only destroyed istus but also sank a large District of oser Von and thousands of her citizens along with it leaking poisonous gas into

the City and its surroundings it was only with the help of Janna who blew away most of the toxic fumes that the people here managed to survive and that's how zon ended up sunken Below piltover in 787 the serpent Isles became a hot bed for immigration from places like damasa fiord and Ionia the vuru allowed these Outsiders to settle in the southern Bay and this quickly developed into the port city of bwat also you remember Fizz he finally awakens from his hibernation and chooses to live around this area finally by 790 a.m oser vazon has

undergone extensive reconstruction to make it liveable again they also constructed the sun Gates that regulate the ocean passage which the city had sunk into controlling this Waterway meant controlling transport and trade making the newly developed District over the pilt river very wealthy the merchants who controlled this trade route wanted to differentiate themselves from the lowly people living in osra Von and so they formed piltover to symbolize their position above them to celebrate their new found success progress day was established to remember the anniversary of the sun Gates opening and the establishment of piltover however the

Pilan were not the only ones benefiting from this new trade route noxus a nation built on Barren and DEC carpet land now had a simple and efficient way to gather resources from across its Empire without needing to rely solely on the land route by this point most of central valeron belonged to noxus and they continued to March their soldiers West over to the next country while pretty much all nations to this point had been easy to dominate they came across Deasia in 892 while the noxians had been a brutal offensive Force the Damian were experts

at defending themselves and quickly pushed the Invaders away beyond the walls of Havis Sion was furious at these setbacks and turned his War band towards Havis to reclaim the land they had just lost he met the enemy in battle and was immediately outnumbered and overwhelmed however he alone persisted pierced by dozens of arrows and Spears Sion trudged it forward until he found King jarvin the first grabbed him by the throat and strangled him to death with Sion only allowing himself to die once he knew he had defeated the enemy both groups would then return to

their homes Damian to mourn their King and noxians to pay respect to saion ining him inside a monument dedicated to his honor for the next 50 years damasa actively fought to free Central valeron from the noxians pushing their forces back to the capital however in 942 sion's tomb was opened the grand general of the Empire boram darkwell Allied himself with the black rose this is a faction in noxus which has a rich history and I'm not going to go into this whole area of legore because it's a lot and Arcane season 2 is going to

flesh it out even more but I am planning on doing a whole video on noxus and just the Empire and the political goings of the Empire and the Black Rose so hit that subscribe button click that notification bell all of these League videos are about to be Peak anyway the Black Rose is led by LeBlanc and Vladimir to reanimate the long dead Hero Of War using forbidden magic however this new Scion's blood lust was uncontrollable he was deemed too dangerous and ultimately noxus had to imprison him below the immortal Bastion to prevent his rage from

turning against them in an attempt to regain their former glory in 974 noxus began expanding southwards over the next decade they'd make preparations as they slowly annexed and recruited nearby regions and by 984 they were ready for a full-scale invasion of Ionia almost immediately they take the Fortress of phor and use this as their base of operations for the remainder of the invasion the noxians even managed to convert several vastan tribes into allies it's not all easygo though as in 986 Len and uder reunite with several other monks to defend the hirana monastery and successfully

push back the noxian forces on top of that when noxus attacks the town of Palace two people named Kai and valmar fight to stop them in the conflict the two fall into a pit and awaken in the darken varus who fuses with both of them and defeats the Invaders before leaving Ionia at the same time Swain challenges irelia's Army and loses his arm in the process Swain was then taken away from the battlefield and takes control of round the demon of Secrets before returning to noxus where he was dishonorably discharged in year 989 Swain then

enacts a coup in noxus killing borm darkwell and within a year he holds most of the noxian forces from Ionia he then proposes a creation of the triar of noxus with three individuals standing as symbols of the nation Swain represents the vision of noxus Darius represents its might and the faceless represents its guile as the noxus leave a power vacuum is created in Ionia which both the navori Brotherhood and the shadow order attempt to take control of meanwhile the noxian copia a Noble from noxus hires civer to take her to a faved lost city when

they enter the Tomb of the Emperors copia realizes that civer weapon the chalar is a key and betrays her to take it however as she places the weapon in the lock the guardian curse is triggered and she is transformed by poisons into a gagan like creature at the same time opening this tomb releases both zarth and Renekton from their prison and so Renekton sets out to find and kill his brother nasus copia returns back to noxus and uses her new powers for the black rose as for civer she is the descendant of air and her

blood resurrects him seeing her mortally wounded the emperor brings her to the Oasis of dawn saving her life and doing so he becomes worthy of Ascension and becomes a god Warrior and with this transformation sharim is lost capital and the sun disc slowly begin rising from the Sands in an instant this ancient kingdom is rebilt and azir terraforms the land to recreate the Utopia it once was at the same time zerth is building up his own power in the city of narim and NASA sets off on a mission to stop him soon after Talia finds

civer wounded outside of vea her blood is attracting both nasus and zerth towards her nasus makes it their first and gives the girls an amulet to keep them hidden from Zer and fights the Mages when he arrives however he ultimately loses that battle but still created enough of an opening for Talia and civer to escape the following year 991 Lucian and Senna are looking for a cure to senna's curse in an ancient Vault when they are attacked by thresh resulting in senna's Soul being sealed away in thresh's Lantern in 994 a harrowing begins sweeping over

bwat with heum and thresh leading its path Lucian Olaf and Misfortune all come together to fend off the her wi until alawi calls nagakabouros to shower light over belge water and repel the Mist in the battle Lucian learns that Sena soul is imprisoned in thresh's Lantern and vows to save her and destroy the black mist the next year he travels to the Shadow Isles and finally manages to defeat thresh saving his wife and allowing her to reform herself as a wraith with a relic Canon that she uses to scare off thresh finally in 996 Vigo

begins to a L which unbeknown to him also brings Gwen to life the black mist unleashes a harrowing all across run Tera corrupting countless people as it pass through them ultimately leading to the Sentinels of light recruiting several new members including vain Olaf Riven aelia Diana Graves Rengar and Pike it's a Avengers level threat the Sentinels head to the shadow aisles with the help of Yurick and take on the Mist Vigo along with Vex manages to capture Senna Gwen and the Maiden with several shards of is's Soul then pulling all of these shards together he

revives isode only for akan to kill her with his absorber this severs vigo's connection to the black mist and the Sentinels finish him off with Gwen tying him down on camore with needles made of hallowed Mist with Vigo defeated all those corrupted by the heroing return to normal and the newest Sentinels returned their weapons with the exception of vain who becomes a permanent member finally with vle gone thresh takes control over the black mist and heads to noxus and this all brings us back to the leadup to the modern day with Arcane the people of

pil over continue to rule over and subjugate those living in the lanes below leading to a rebellion effort which is ultimately put down with countless losses on both sides this includes VI and powder's parents as a result they are adopted by the leader of the resistance Vander over the years Vander makes a deal with piltover Sheriff Grayson to essentially keep the peace but one day VI powder clager and Milo sneak into Jace's apartment and pilt over and disrupt magical crystals which cause an explosion collapsing a huge part of the building the kids Escape but in

doing so put Vander in a rough situation where he needs to offer someone up to the enforcers to face consequences at the same time Silko works with sing to create a ship variant that can supercharge his Soldier and uses one of them to capture Vander and kill Grayson violates an effort to save Vander but leaves powder behind because she's unlucky but she follows them anyway releasing a magic Crystal's energy that she stole from Jay's home through one of her inventions which leads the entire facility to be destroyed resulting in the deaths of both clager and

Milo also severely injuring Vian Vander now weakened Vander is killed by Sil leaving V furious with her sister and disowning her in the end Silko adopts powder because he sees himself in her and Vai is taken to prison by an enforcer called Marcus all the while in piltover Jace tries to sell the idea of mixing magic with technology through hex Heimerdinger severely disapproves as he probably knows about some of the Terrors that happened 1 thousand years ago through the Rune Wars when they messed with the Arcane or just the founding of Pelt over when osar

vzon destroyed pretty much their entire country and causing Janna to use her alt to save everyone but Victor and Chancellor Madera side with Jace and ultimately his invention is picked up for further study years later Jay's hex deck is massively successful most iconically in allowing the creation of the hex Gates which allow hypers speed travel which is unbelievably valuable for a nation founded on trade and Commerce meanwhile powder is going by Jinx now and working for silco as he continues to build towards the lanes becoming an independent nation and gathers wealth selling Shimmer Jinx steals

one of Jace's new and improved hex score crystals creating a state of Widespread Panic where Pelt over's Council becomes fearful of what weapons the lanes might be able to produce as a result blockades are put in place and the military is put on defensive watch to stop things from escalating fur further Caitlyn begins looking into Soo from behind the scenes and releases vi from prison to help with the investigation only to come across Jinx and see how different and insane these few years have made her at the same time Heimerdinger is removed from control of

piltover and Jace takes his place on the council as a more forward looking figurehead for piltover Jace also starts seeing Mel Marda another council member and the daughter of the noxian Marda family led by amb Mard Messa sees Jace as the answer to all of noxus problems it is a vast but Barren Nation relying on trade and imports for survival but it is also a conquesting Empire which needs to send its troops long distances to engage in battle hex gate technology would essentially make them an Unstoppable Force which could overwhelm any and all opponents as

tensions escalate Silko and Jace discuss an option for peace Sil wants a free and independent nation of zon taking its name from OSHA Von while Jace demands he hand over Jinx for her crimes ultimately Silko is willing to throw away his lifelong dream to protect his daughter but due to a miscommunication Jinx captures him V and Caitlyn sitting them all down for one last family meeting before killing Silko and firing a rocket fueled by the hex score at the council building and that's where where Arcane season 1 ends and since season 2 isn't out yet
