Complete Prophecy
In some cases, when people get old and their minds become less clear, they can act like children; the Sage Tabor seemed to be like that. ✿.。.:* ☆::..::.☆*.:。.✿
When he heard that I wanted to negotiate, he immediately clutched the crystal. Actually, I just wanted to ask if there was any prophecy about us. I figured that if I threatened him with the crystal, he would just tell me directly, saving me time.
Just as I thought, he hesitated for a moment, then said, "I didn't plan to tell you now, but it seems I have to. Listen carefully: the gathering of the Seven Kings is the will of the people."
The gathering of Seven Kings —a meeting of all expectations?
As always, I was initially puzzled when I heard the prophecy, but I gradually found the answer through subsequent experiences.
It is both an inspiration and a spur.
Now that we have received the prophecy, we should leave, but the old Sage hadn't finished speaking, "Oh, right, the prophecy I gave you before isn't over yet."
"It's not over yet? Sincere friends extended a helping hand, and a powerful tribe was saved from dire straits. The War of Freljord has been over for so long, could the prophecy mean something else?"
"No, it's another one: 'Harbor disaster, neither dead nor destroyed.'"
Oh, there was another part. Looks like he got confused and forgot to tell us this prophecy... Hmm? The Harbor Disaster? Could it be what LeBlanc meant by "Beware of the Harbor"?
Since the Sage Tabor and LeBlanc have absolutely no connection, I didn't think of it at first, but now that I think about it, it seems to be true!
LeBlanc also said at the time that she had heard this prophecy from somewhere else!
Have you mentioned this prophecy to anyone else?
"Have you mentioned it before? I've forgotten. I think I mentioned it to a woman, no, a ghost, no, it was..."
I'm too lazy to listen to the old Sage's nonsense. Although I don't know how the two met, it was indeed him who told LeBlanc.
The original words were "The calamity of the harbor will be neither death nor destruction." Upon closer reflection, it's understandable that this prophecy hasn't ended, since we will have to deal with the threat of the dead again.
Next, it's time to return to Shurima and help Darius. This journey has delayed me for several days, and I don't know how the battle is going, but with Jarvan and Shvana's help, the delay was worthwhile.
"Don't forget to bring Lucian," Riven reminded me.
I didn't know the House of Rat's residence, but after asking around, I learned that they were also in Silver City, very close to the House of Lightshield. Luckily, they weren't in any other town, otherwise I would have had to hire a guide.
As we walked and asked, we quickly learned the exact location of the House of Rat. However, when we passed by the House of Lightshield, we ran into an acquaintance, Mona.
She was sitting in her luxurious carriage, about to leave, when she lifted the curtain and spotted us. She immediately ordered the servants to stop the carriage.
"Wait, don't go! Yasuo, Riven, what are you doing here!"
"Looking for a friend, I was just about to leave. When did you arrive in Demacia?"
"I just arrived yesterday and was on my way to the palace to see my eldest nephew!"
Needless to say, the nephew Mona was going to see was Garen. The two look more like father and daughter than aunt and nephew.
"Then go ahead, we have urgent business to attend to. We can talk again another time."
As I was saying goodbye to Mona and about to leave, another person stepped off the carriage— Tiana, the head of the House of Lightshield.
The moment I saw her, I had a bad feeling, especially her harmless smile, which made me a little uneasy.
Did Mona tell Tiana all my guesses about the House of Lightshield? I even specifically told her not to.
Long time no see, you two.
"Hello, Head of the House of Lightshield."
"No need to be so polite. You've done Demacia a favor and even saved my sister Mona. I should thank you properly."
Tiana emphasized the word "sister," seemingly already suspecting me. I didn't want to have any more conversation with her.
"Gods protect us, we still have things to do, you should go ahead and attend to yours too."
"No rush, I think we need to have a talk."
Hearing this, I no longer needed to be anxious; Tiana already knew everything.
That makes sense, we saved Mona, and then she found out everything. Who else could it be but me?
"No one else will ever know this secret again," I quickly assured them.
"But how can I be at ease? Such a big matter, if it gets leaked, the consequences are unimaginable."
Tiana seemed to be worried that I would use this to threaten her, but I had no such intention. Given the various relationships involved, I couldn't possibly do that.
"I think you know about my relationship with Jarvan. To put it another way, I'm on good terms with Garen, Lux, and Mona, and I've even met Bliss from Charming Village once. I'm not someone who doesn't think things through."
"You really have been to the Charming Village? That surprises me. How did you cross the Laos River?"
"The process was complicated, but eventually someone helped."
"Fine, there's nothing I can do to you. I can only hope you keep this a secret, and the same goes for my family. I don't want another Mona to appear."
"Definitely! By the way, Lady Tiana, I'd like to ask you about someone."
"Who?"
"Teresa, do you know her?" I suddenly remembered Ezreal's mother; after investigating in Piltover, I suspected she was the Charming Women.
"Teresa? You've seen her?"
I didn't actually meet her; I only saw news about her death.
"What! Death!"
Tiana was both shocked and heartbroken; judging from her appearance, she must be Teresa's elder.
I told her what I had experienced at the Watchpost of the Dead. The more Tiana listened, the sadder she became. At her age, nothing could move her so much except the safety of her family.
Tiana told me that Teresa was her sister, who had traveled with her brother Lyle and later fell in love with Piltover, a modern city, and settled there.
Later, Teresa fell in love with a local explorer and married him against her family's wishes, embarking on adventures to escape the House of Lightshield's pursuit.
After all these years, I never imagined I'd be so cruelly attacked!
Tiana's so-called younger siblings were actually her and Devon's illegitimate children. Receiving this news at this time was undoubtedly heartbreaking.
"What about Lyle? How is Lyle? I haven't heard from him in so long!"
"I don't know about that. It should be fine, because Teresa left behind a child who used to live in Piltover, but now the child is missing. I guess Lyle took him to look for his parents."
Do you know what Teresa's child's name is?
"Ezreal, a handsome boy who inherited the appearance of the Charming Women race. I brought this up to tell you about this child. Please accept my condolences."
"Thanks."
Tiana thanked me and then returned to the carriage. Mona quickly followed and gestured goodbye to me.
As for finding Ezreal, let the House of Lightshield handle that!
