Evelynn

If I could represent Ionia, then now Demacia, Noxus, Freljord, and Piltover each have a Dream Owner. 😲🏆 ☝🐨

I don't think it's a coincidence. There should be one in every famous place in Runeterra, so it's much easier to find them if you use that as a guide.

However, the most important thing right now is to deal with the invasion of the Shadow Isles. I asked Darius for the cards left behind by Twisted Fate and found a mage in the army to unseal the magic on them.

With a flash of Golden Light, we heard Twisted Fate's voice. "Is there a clue, Darius? Tell me quickly."

"Hi, it's me, Yasuo. I have a lead on Evelynn; she's at the place where you first met."

You mean Bilgewater?

"Yes, come over quickly. We'll discuss the details when we meet. The meeting place is the Temple of Bahru in the south."

"Okay, I'm in Noxus, I'll be there soon!"

Twisted Fate readily agreed, and Riven and I should head back. I had originally intended to ask Darius for some men, but he was about to launch his campaign, so I didn't ask.

When they returned to the Temple of Bahru, Twisted Fate was already there. Judging from his weak appearance, the teleportation spell had taken a heavy toll.

However, he was still very excited when he saw us. "Where is Evelynn?"

"We're looking for her too, that's why we called you here. Isn't your perception magic very powerful? Look for her!"

"No, my magic is severely depleted. I can't use Insight Technique until at least tomorrow."

"Let me see."

Tam placed his hand on Twisted Fate's back, and a thin stream of water quickly spread across the back of his hand. Soon, Twisted Fate's complexion returned to normal.

"What did you do? Why do I feel like I have so much magic power?"

"Give it a try."

Twisted Fate pondered intently, his lips moving as if chanting some incantation. Slowly, his face grew pale again, and sweat beaded on his forehead.

Tam had to channel mana into him again. While his Teleportation and Insight Technique were useful, the mana consumption was enormous.

After a long while, Twisted Fate opened his eyes, a puzzled look on his face. "What happened?"

"Did you find it?"

"Have you found it? I don't know, I need to go and check!"

This answer is a bit puzzling. What does "confirm" mean? "Can't your Insight Technique confirm identity?"

"No, something's strange."

"What's the meaning?"

"She's at my house, and it's very clean! I haven't been back since I broke up with Evelynn, so I'm not sure if she's my ex-wife or Evelynn; they look so alike!"

"Why don't we go take a look and find out? I'll take you there on my motorcycle, so Boss Tam can save some mana."

"Okay, let's set off now!"

Twisted Fate's hometown is in the Python River basin east of Bilgewater. Because of its lush vegetation and abundance of venomous snakes and wild beasts, it has few inhabitants.

Twisted Fate's residence consisted of two small houses and a small yard. He said the house on the left was intended for children, but unfortunately, neither he nor his ex-wife were stable individuals, and they had no offspring.

Before entering the house, I used the Wind's Breath Insight to investigate the situation inside. There was indeed a person inside, but I didn't sense any danger. They seemed no different from an ordinary person.

Upon entering, the people inside were surprised. "Twisted Fate? Why are you back?"

"Are you Evelynn?"

"Oh, how heartless! After all these years, you don't even recognize me anymore?"

"That's not true. Come to think of it, we didn't even say goodbye properly."

The two began reminiscing as soon as they met, but my attention remained focused on Evelynn, trying to see if she was lying.

As Twisted Fate said, the two looked very alike and both had a charming demeanor, but Evelynn looked a little older.

I observed her for a long time but couldn't find the slightest clue. Although I sensed some power surging from her, it was far inferior to Evelynn's.

The two chatted for a while and then started talking about parting ways. Neither of them hid anything or felt embarrassed. They were truly an odd pair.

"Have you fallen in love with another woman?" Evelynn asked first.

"Yes, her name is Evelynn, and she looks a lot like you."

"Am I prettier than you?"

"I'm not just saying your names are similar, you two look alike too, but she's stronger and more beautiful than you."

"You never said this when you were pursuing me. You praised me more than the waters of the Python River."

"Alright, stop blaming me. Didn't you swear an oath of fidelity? And then you left a letter and ran off with another man."

"Who told you to never come home, leaving me alone in this empty house?"

"Alright, we were both wrong about this. Why did you come back?"

"That man was just as useless as you; he was murdered not long ago, so I came back."

"You have no idea how strong I am now! I'm not the gambler I used to be."

"Oh? That's interesting. Why did you come back if you weren't out having fun with that Evelynn woman?"

"I... I thought you were her and came back to confirm, but the moment I saw you, I knew I was wrong."

"Looks like you didn't win her over. How about coming back into my arms?"

"No, I will only ever love her in this lifetime."

"Oh, that's such a shame. What about the guy next to you? He looks pretty good, just my type. Want to come and snuggle in my arms for a bit?"

"Sorry, I'm not interested."

"Let's go, Yasuo. Looks like we made a wasted trip."

The two chatted for a long time, but I wasn't interested at all. When I heard Twisted Fate say he had to leave, I quickly got ready. But as I was leaving, I caught a glimpse of Evelynn's slightly upturned lips out of the corner of my eye.

She smiled secretly. Nothing pleasant had happened during their meeting. Why was that?

On the way back, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. That smile looked so much like Evelynn's!

"No, let's go back!"

What are you going back for?

"She is Evelynn!"

"Impossible. Although they look very similar, I couldn't possibly be mistaken..."

I ignored Twisted Fate's words and turned back, but in just a few minutes, Evelynn was gone!

Twisted Fate used Insight Technique again, but this time he found nothing, not even the slightest trace of anything!

"What's going on? Am I just too tired? My Insight Technique has never failed before!"

"It's not that your Insight Technique failed; it's that she's too powerful and can evade your tracking."

"Powerful? Evelynn is not... Could she really be Evelynn?"

"I think we've been tricked by her!"
