The Tide Sprites

The Ice Saber's fire attribute doesn't refer to its ability to change form, but rather to its ability to change according to the user's inner state.

Sejuani is of the Blood of Ice and a fanatical warrior. Whenever she fights with unbridled passion, her Ice Saber respond to her inner desires, becoming intensely fiery!

This intense heat enhances the Ice Saber's lethality, allowing it to cleave even a thick iron anvil in two with a single strike!

I can use the Wind Force to cut through iron like mud, but Ice Saber are different; sharpness alone is enough!

Of course, not just anyone can awaken the fire attribute of the Ice Saber; only truly fanatical warriors can do it, and Tryndamere, as the King of the Barbarians, is undoubtedly the most suitable new master!

After thanking Lili, the two headed back. Because of the long journey, they hadn't returned when I last visited the Avarosa tribe.

After listening to their account, I briefly explained what had happened in Ionia, and how I had come to them in the first place to offer help.

However, we don't need so many people anymore. On the one hand, everyone's strength has improved significantly, and on the other hand, the Vastaya have been badly defeated by us and will not show themselves for the time being.

Tryndamere still regrets not being able to go to Ionia to learn and practice with everyone; that would have been a rare opportunity.

As we were talking, the beast riders ahead spotted the suspicious people. I used my Wind Riding Technique to quickly get there and saw several mages fleeing.

I was originally planning to question them, but they just ran away, so I didn't even need to ask them anything; I caught them easily.

At first, these people tried to resist using the Nullstone, but it was useless against me. Wind Element Strength is not afraid of these. At the same time, I was able to confirm their identities. Mages who can use the Nullstone must be remnants of Sylas.

Over the next two days, we traveled south from the west coast, capturing dozens of remnants of the rebel mages. Several misunderstandings occurred along the way, but we released them after verifying their true identities.

By the fifth day, we had successfully rendezvoused with Jarvan's dragoons. We had captured over sixty men, while Jarvan had captured nearly two hundred.

Jarvan ordered their execution without hesitation, but Caroline pleaded for their lives. She felt that executing those who offered no resistance was no different from slaughter, and she didn't want Jarvan to be accused of indiscriminate killing, even if these people weren't truly innocent.

In the end, Jarvan only executed a few people who plotted against Caroline. The rest were released, but they had to carry out construction on the Demacia border. Any further rebellion would be met with death!

After dealing with this matter, Jarvan also told Ashe about what he had seen along the way: many Freljord tribes had not yet submitted, and they were burning, killing, and looting everywhere, and had even harassed Jon's troops.

Actually, another tribe once tried to humiliate Caroline, but she didn't tell Jarvan. I opened my mouth, but seeing Caroline's pleading eyes, I didn't say anything in the end.

In my memory, she was a strong-willed woman, but I never expected her to completely disregard past grievances at this moment. It's truly the magnanimity of a queen. How could I possibly ruin her good intentions?

Ashe hasn't had time to manage the tribes in southern Freljord since the end of the War of the Union. She originally planned to deal with them when the Avarosa tribe migrated south, but since the people didn't want to leave their homeland, she didn't have time to do so.

Now is the perfect opportunity to subdue them, otherwise Freljord will remain fragmented.

And so, after a brief reunion, we parted ways again. Ashe and Tryndamere led their troops to subdue the southern tribes, Jon returned to the northern border of Demacia, and the dragon riders also returned to Silver City.

Jarvan, Shvana, Caroline, and I headed down the cliff to pay a visit to Garr, the Dragon of Light.

Caroline has been blessed by Garr and can move freely in the water. Jarvan, although a descendant of the Lightshield, is not used to the underwater environment, as is Shvana. The two of them can only rely on my Wind Force to shield them from the seawater.

Since Caroline was semi-conscious when she fell into the water last time, we couldn't pinpoint her exact location. We searched underwater for quite a while but couldn't find the beautiful seaweed and the Crystal Palace.

There was no other way but to wander around and make noise, hoping to attract the attention of Garr or Fizz.

For two consecutive days, we went up for fresh air several times and finally spotted the menacing Fizz.

"Who's causing trouble here! Is that you? You... what's your name again?"

"I'm Caroline, we've met before, Fizz."

"By the way, your name is Caroline. I told you humans were unreliable! You'd definitely bring people to cause trouble, Garr didn't believe me! What do you say? You really did bring people!"

"Don't misunderstand, we're not here to cause trouble. Although it was wrong of me to leak this information, they are not outsiders, especially this one, he is a descendant of Garr!"

Caroline pointed at Jarvan, who took a step forward. Before he could even greet Fizz, the little guy pointed forward with his harpoon:

"No one is acceptable! Sending you to the Crystal Palace was already an exception; with so many people involved, there's no room for negotiation!"

Fizz's tone was firm, and he didn't seem particularly wary; it was more likely that outsiders visiting the Crystal Palace would have a negative impact on the environment there.

There was no other way but to try using my "network of connections," so I took a step forward:

Hello, Fizz.

And who are you?

"My name is Yasuo, and I'm friends with Yordle. I think we can be friends too."

"Don't talk nonsense! How could humans be friends with Yordle? You guys hate us too much!"

"It's true. I know Kennen, Kled, Gnar, Lulu, and Mangi. You can ask any of them if you don't believe me."

"I don't know if what you're saying is true or false. I only know Gnar and Lulu among these people, so I can't trust you."

Fizz said he only knew Gnar and Lulu, which suggests he was quite old; he left the Yordle world before Kled and the others.

But that's alright, even if he doesn't know these people, there's one name he's sure to recognize!

"Hmm... I also know your Old Chieftain, his name was Antiquit!"

Sure enough, Fizz's eyes widened upon hearing the name. There was no doubt now; if I wasn't friends with the Yordle, why would they tell me this name?

"Alright, I believe you, but I still can't take you to the Crystal Palace. It's built with the purest magic crystals, and only Caroline can go in. You guys are too dirty!"

"Uh... I see. Actually, we're not going to the Crystal Palace. We just wanted to see Senior Garr. Wouldn't it be better if he came to see us?"
