Crownguard Family Head

Andy glanced at everyone, his gaze settling on Fiora. He sincerely apologized for his father's actions.

After finishing his story, he turned to me and said, "Actually, I hated you at first. I hated you for meddling and for killing my father. But you made indelible contributions to Demacia, so I don't want to pursue this any further."

Since Andy is so understanding, it's no big deal to apologize. "I was too impulsive. Thank you for not holding a grudge."

The head maid volunteered for death, knowing she had committed heinous crimes, and confessed now in hopes that Jarvan would forgive her family.

Darius asked with interest, "If I may add something, what are your plans for dealing with these surrendered mages?"

"My mindset will not change. I intend to forgive them and build a country where everyone can live in harmony."

"Have you considered the devastation these people have caused to Demacia? Even if you forgive them, others probably won't, because many have lost everything in this chaos."

"But if we continue to suppress mages, this kind of thing will probably happen again."

"It's good that you want to change Demacia, but you can't rush things. Centuries-old ideas are deeply ingrained; everything has to be done slowly."

Do you have any good suggestions?

"Rewarding merit and punishing demerit is only right. First, those who commit heinous crimes should be severely punished. Then, a special area should be designated as the living quarters for the mages, and they should be treated differently."

"Differentiated treatment? Doesn't that still fail to achieve equality?"

"People are never equal, and that's what makes it fair! Putting them back into the ranks of ordinary people would only create more conflicts. Separating them like this allows people to get to know each other over the years, and they will naturally integrate."

Darius gave Jarvan a great idea; after listening to it, Jarvan had a sudden realization and handed the matter over to Andy.

Unexpectedly, Darius was not only skilled in leading troops into battle, but also in governing a country. Jarvan learned a lot from him at the banquet. The situation in Noxus is still quite instructive for Demacia at present.

In addition to these major events, we inevitably talked about that shared dream.

Darius still believed it was a harbinger of a world upheaval, Jarvan didn't think much of it, only perceiving it as some kind of catastrophe.

I also shared my opinion. "I think it has something to do with that That Great One."

"That Great One? Is he the one Sylas mentioned before he left?" Jarvan asked me.

"Yes, someone else mentioned that That Great One too, it's Jhin, the serial killer from Ionia, but I don't know if they're talking about the same person, they seem very similar."

"Oh? So there's someone manipulating both of these things behind the scenes. In any case, we need to work together to deal with this!" Darius emphasized his idea again, and no one doubted the rationality of his statement.

Another thing that worried Jarvan was that Shvana hadn't returned. That day, she had single-handedly fought off the mages to cover Jarvan, and later, the soldiers who had escaped told him that she had been surrounded by the enemy. No one knew what happened after that.

Shvana has never told anyone about her background, where she comes from, or her connection to the dragons, etc. But she looks a lot like Teacher Li, so when I return to Doco, I can ask Jarvan about it. As for finding someone, I can't help with that.

After hesitating for a long time, Garen finally revealed his secret: Lux's disappearance.

Although Kled and I knew what happened, and Darius probably heard it too, Garen had no idea:

Lux suddenly disappeared. Although it seems she was rescued, there's been no news of her since. Does anyone have any clues?

Now that magic is recognized and Lux's secret is out, I have nothing to hide anymore. "I know a little. That unicorn was actually Angel, and it took Lux to a secret realm."

"It really is Angel. I always felt there was something strange about that horse, but I never expected it to be the legendary unicorn. I just don't know where the secret realm is."

"I don't know either, but Angel won't hurt Lux. Maybe she'll come back once she recovers."

After recounting this, Garen apologized to Jarvan for concealing Lux's magical abilities and revealed the inside story:

It turns out that Lux displayed magical talent from a young age, which greatly alarmed the House of Lightshield.

The head of the household at the time was Garen's grandfather, who strictly forbade his family from spreading the news and replaced Lux's servants with his own trusted men, just in case.

Because of her different upbringing, Lux's personality is quite different from other noble ladies.

She rarely learned those complicated etiquette rules, lived a carefree life, and was innocent, romantic, and a little willful.

As she grew older, she discovered her differences and that her activities were restricted; she could not leave at will, and even going out for a stroll required a large group of servants.

She later learned that the glowing of her fingers was a form of magic, and magic was strictly forbidden in Demacia.

She had difficulty being self-disciplined as a child, and now that she's grown up, she promised her grandfather she would never use magic again, but she still hasn't gained her freedom.

She was only allowed to come and go freely after her aunt Tiana became the head of the family, and it is said that Garen's father was not elected head of the family because of Lux.

Of course, Lux was unaware of all this. Like a bird released from its cage, she was cheerful and lively, and began to travel around, attend various events, and become well-known to everyone.

Although Demacia no longer forbids magic, as the Great General of the Dauntless Vanguard, doing so would be deceiving the king and violating the oath he swore:

"My aunt recommended me as the Great General of the Dauntless Vanguard because she trusted me, but now, from every perspective, I have disappointed her greatly, so I implore you to relieve me of my post."

"I've admired you since I was a child and considered you my idol. I think it's not just me; most Demacia feel the same way. This little mistake shouldn't warrant such a reaction."

Jarvan disagreed, but under Garen's strong insistence, he was eventually relieved of his post as Great General Dauntless Vanguard and demoted to General of the Royal Guard.

Since the House of Lightshield has always led the Dauntless Vanguard Legion, even if Garen is relieved of his post, the position still belongs to the Crownguard, and the candidate will still be recommended by the head of the House of Lightshield.

I'm very curious about what kind of person this House of Lightshield head is. You know, it's not something an ordinary person can achieve by gaining such a status in Demacia as a woman.

Even someone as powerful as Fiora went through numerous difficulties to become the head of the family, and she never gained the recognition of the other members of her clan.

The fact that the head of the House of Lightshield didn't even show up during this major upheaval means that the word "mystery" doesn't even begin to describe it.

Just as I was wondering about this, someone came to report: Tiana, the head of the House of Lightshield, and Sage Tabor have arrived together!
