Fuguang in Shadow

In the fertile soil east of Shurima, there is a well-known magician family-Hylan.♨♜ Opaw 💝♔

The Hyrens are said to have evolved from ancient sea creatures that crawled onto land, but the veracity of this claim is impossible to verify. What is undeniable, however, is that the Hyrens have made indelible contributions to the development of Shurima.

Many Hylan mages traveled to various parts of the continent to spread advanced magical knowledge, accelerating the process of civilization and enlightenment in Shurima, something the Hylan people have always been proud of.

However, one young man set his sights on the sea, believing that the legend of the Hailan people was true: that his ancestors came from the sea.

The young man's idea was ridiculed by his tribesmen, who considered the legend merely a fabrication by a bard.

The young man didn't take it to heart and continued his research. The more serious he became, the more ridicule he received. Eventually, people simply called him "Thresh," which means "stinky and hard stone" in Old Hailan.

Thresh!

The young man was furious; he wanted to prove with his actions that these tribesmen were no better than Thresh!

Soon after, the young man built a magical boat that could propel itself and embarked on a journey to the east.

However, the dangers in the sea far exceeded the young man's imagination. He could subdue all kinds of marine life, but he couldn't fight against the harsh weather.

The small boat capsized countless times, and the young man adjusted his position countless times. When he finally discovered land, he was more destitute than a primitive man.

The young man excitedly stepped onto land, and after walking around for a while, he discovered that he was on an island, where the inhabitants all knew how to use simple magic.

The islanders were very welcoming to the young people, preparing not only a sumptuous meal but also presenting them with a beautiful robe.

When the islanders asked the young man his name, he hesitated for a moment before replying, "My name Thresh."

Thresh's arrival brought about a dramatic change to the island, not because of his personal strength, but because there was a magical place on the island: the Sacred Spring.

The Sacred Spring is the most sacred place on the island, the source of all life, and has been protected by the "Guardians of the Sacred Spring" since ancient times.

Thresh was delighted to be invited to join the Guardians of the Sacred Spring after demonstrating his kind nature and superb magic, becoming one of the most respected people on the island.

Because gaining the islanders' approval means they won't have to go back and face their narrow-minded tribesmen.

In addition, the island's folk customs and beautiful scenery also made him linger.

To repay the people's kindness, Thresh imparted his magical knowledge to them, especially his mastery of Construction Magic.

The islanders were warm-hearted, kind, intelligent, and hardworking, and they quickly learned the magic.

A few days later, a brand-new temple rose up not far from the Sacred Spring, replacing the previous simple house.

The temple was built in the style of Ancient Shurima, which is quite ordinary for Thresh, but very unusual for the islanders.

And so the word spread, from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and people from all over the island came to admire this amazing structure. Thresh gradually became known and celebrated...

Seeing the islanders' boundless hope for a better life, Thresh began teaching them how to clear land, cultivate crops, and raise livestock, gradually establishing the first village and the first town...

During this process, he discovered that this island was very special; simply put, it was full of vitality.

The crops he planted yielded multiple harvests, and the livestock he raised grew rapidly... His companions told him that this was a blessing from the Sacred Spring.

With a source of power, development became much simpler. Thresh opened a school in the town, taking on many apprentices to teach building and farming, gradually spreading prosperity to every corner of the island.

However, as towns were built, problems arose because resources were not evenly distributed across different areas.

At this time, Thresh began to teach people how to do business. At first, it was barter, and later rare metals were used as currency, which greatly alleviated the conflicts in various places.

Over the decades, the island's population has increased significantly, gradually forming its own civilization, much like a smaller version of Shurima.

Thresh doesn't care about the occasional wars; he believes that war can promote cultural exchange and the development of science, magic, and other fields.

As long as one thing remains unchanged: venerate the Sacred Spring and Sacred Spring its guardians.

People did indeed do it; their attitude towards the Sacred Spring remained the same, and so did their attitude towards Thresh.

People call Thresh "Fuguang" (meaning "Lucky Light"), and the island is called "Fuguang Island").

During his years living on Fuguang Island, Thresh's favorite thing to do was sit in a wicker chair and admire the beautiful scenery near the Sacred Spring, using magic to spy on the development of various places...

At some point, his temples turned gray, and the rattan chair was replaced by a rocking chair. Every time he drifted off to sleep, several people would surround him, their faces full of concern and their expressions tense, as if they were afraid he wouldn't wake up!

Thresh often thinks that ending his life in his sleep wouldn't be so bad. Although he didn't discover the origins of the Hylan clan, he witnessed many beautiful things and was highly respected...

However, before he even died, this prosperous and peaceful scene was destroyed by a king.

The king, accompanied by his ailing wife, sought the help of the guardians of the Sacred Spring, hoping they could use the Sacred Spring's life force to heal the queen.

Thresh refused because he discovered that the Queen's illness was unusual; her body was filled with restless Dark Magic, and if he were to use the Sacred Spring to treat her, it would cause pollution, which would then affect all life on the island.

The king did not give up. After being repeatedly rejected, one day he suddenly led several soldiers to forcibly immerse the queen in the Sacred Spring and killed Thresh, who tried to stop him.

The spring water instantly turned black, followed by pollution of all the rivers on the island, then the forests withered, and life perished...

When Thresh awoke again, he discovered a world he had never seen before: decaying, dilapidated, and filled with the aura of death.

He ran around in terror, but found no life; only wandering spirits, even more terrified than himself, roamed the places he passed...

Thresh imprisoned the spirits in the Soul Lantern, hoping to send them on their way, but Fuguang Island never returned to what it once was, and the spirits remained imprisoned in the Soul Lantern, the only way to prevent them from going mad...

After countless years, Thresh finally gave up. He stood alone at the bottom of the temple, unable even to die.

Occasionally, lost people would come to the island, but he would kill or drive them away. This was not a place for the living; only death could make people remember.

You must not set foot here!

Later, a powerful uninvited guest arrived, Thresh tried everything to drive him away but to no avail. This man greatly admired Thresh and asked him to help protect the place.

In return, once he regains his strength, he can grant Thresh a true death, in the name of Mordekaiser.

Thresh agreed; at that moment, what he craved most was death, not this state of being neither alive nor dead...

In recent years, Thresh has sensed that Mordekaiser's strength has grown rapidly, and he knows that Mordekaiser is about to achieve his goal, so he can rest assured and wait for death to come.

But before Mordekaiser arrived, a group of survivors and a man with Hylan blood broke in.

Thresh was no stranger to this Hylan; many years ago, she had led her people to the Shadow Isles, only to be routed by Thresh.

This junior seems to have mastered even greater power, and may be able to kill me sooner.

Just as the powerful tentacles were about to slam down on his head, Thresh finally found the answer he had been searching for in his youth:

The Hailan clan truly originated from the ocean; this is their true power.

Moreover, this group seems to be able to purify the Shadow Isles.

Can it ever turn back into Fuguang Island?

Thresh the memories.
