ARCANE RE-WRITE Piltover and Zaun - The Crys Of The Heroes
Arcane โ Piltover and Zaun โ The Cry of the Heroes
What if the villains were never monsters, only people convinced they were heroes? Arcane rewrite โ Piltover and Zaun โ The Cry of the Heroes drags you into the heart of two cities at war, where every scream of defiance is also a prayer for survival. Told through mirrored voicesโone from the heights of Piltover, one from the depths of Zaunโthis story will shatter the walls between right and wrong, forcing you to taste the anger, grief, and fragile hopes on both sides. You will feel the songs of rage that children sing, the parades that glorify soldiers, the trembling hands of killers and protectors who are the same person depending on where you stand. It is a tale that will make you uncomfortable, question your own sanity, and leave you asking what it truly means to condemn. But in the end, when the echoes fade, you may find not certainty, but something rarer: a peace born of empathy, and the haunting truth that humanityโs heroes and villains are often the same cry in different tongues.
I am Israeli, and this story is born from the conflict I live inside every day. It does not choose sidesโit refuses to. Instead, it shines a light on the unbearable human reality: the trauma, the rage, the shattered dreams, and the children who inherit songs of hate before they ever taste hope. ARCANE RE-WRITE โ Piltover and Zaun โ The Cry of the Heroes is not a tale of good versus evil, but of people clinging to the belief that they are the heroes of their own story while being cast as monsters by the other. It will not comfort you with answers. It will break you open, leave you in tears, and force you to confront the terrifying truth that humanityโs greatest tragedies come when both sides are right in their own eyes. Yet through that pain, through the sorrow that feels endless, you may find the one fragile thread that binds us all: empathy
peace ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐๐ต๐ธ

Can't believe this is happening again. Season frinkin six and this is happening again. Tomas this show is your baby! What is up with your security ๐ฅบ๐คจ. What are you just fine with the leaks? Pretending they don't exist at all? Like seriously man. You've been working on this show for more than ten years! ๐ณ I thought ZAG were rich from all the miraculous products they sold. I mean seriously man. Would it be that bad like Idk hiring some cyber security workers? ๐ฉ
This is specifically for those involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. If you havenโt heard this before, let me be the first to say it:
The loudest voices are often the ones we hear the most from both sides, but let me tell you something that might not be as loudโthere are absolutely amazing Palestinians out there who wish for peace, who simply want a safe place to call home. And there are amazing Israelis who are willing to listen and have honest dialogue. Iโm one of them.
When I look at someone, I donโt see a label. I donโt care what they believe, who they are, or where they come from. For me, if someone is kindhearted and doing the best they can, I appreciate them. At the end of the day, theyโre humanโjust like me, just like you. And that is enough.
You donโt have to know everything. You donโt have to agree with everyone. Trust me, being yourself is enough. Weโre often made to believe in labels meant to divide usโpro-Palestinian, pro-Israeli, left, right. But the truth is, those labels arenโt real. At our core, we are all simply people, each with hopes and dreams, each unique in our own way.
Donโt let the media fool you. There are beautiful people on both sides. People who dream of love, understanding, and acceptance. People who donโt want to live in fear. People who are tired of the suffering and just want to find joy, to live without fearโwhether that fear is of a suicide bomber or an IDF soldier.
Beautiful, kind, loving people exist on both sides. And whether we like it or not, we are all human. Those who forget that are the ones doomed to repeat history.
Highly recommended you to listen to this song while reading you will love it! I promise! โค๏ธ
This is a song sung by both Israelies and palistinians singing for peace ๐๏ธ
To everyone hereโpro-Palestinian, pro-Israeli, and everyone in betweenโplease donโt scroll past this. This message is for you, no matter where you stand or what you believe.
Let me start by saying: you are incredible. You are humanโa beautifully complex being full of light and potential. Your compassion, your drive to stand up for what you believe in, and your willingness to care make you a beacon of hope in this chaotic world.
To my Christian friends: Merry Christmas! To my Jewish brothers and sisters: Happy Hanukkah! To my Muslim friends: I wish you the happiest of holidays (and I apologize if I donโt know all your celebrationsโplease feel free to share them). And to everyone elseโwhether you believe in something or nothing at allโI wish you joy, peace, and all the happiness life can bring.
Take a moment to breathe. Look at yourself, really look. See how much love and care you carry within you, even when it feels heavy. Youโve come so far, survived so much, and youโre still here. Thatโs worth celebrating. You might not feel it right now, but you are enough, just as you are.
I know the world feels divided right now. I know thereโs hurt, anger, and frustration on all sides. But even if you hate Israelis, even if you hate Palestinians, even if you feel stuck in your pain or your beliefsโI still see you. I see your humanity, and it matters.
We are not perfect. None of us are. But perfection isnโt what makes us worthyโitโs our kindness, our compassion, and our willingness to grow. If you have love in your heart, you are worthy. If you care, even a little, you are worthy. Even if youโve made mistakes or hold views that others disagree with, you are still human, and that is enough.
Letโs remember that we are all more than our disagreements. We all have the capacity to care, to connect, and to understand each other. The world doesnโt have to be โus vs. them.โ It can be โus *with* them.โ
So, hereโs my wish for you: May your days be filled with love, your nights with peace, and your future with hope. May you find joy even in the smallest moments, and may you always remember that you are seen, valued, and lovedโjust as you are.
Why We're All Human: The Power of Unity in Fandoms
Do you know why weโre human? Let me show you.
we cry and get annoyed together when Adrien keeps seeing marinette as just a friend for four whole seasons ๐ฉ, and we all hate Gabriel agreste when he decided to chase two fourteen years old in time instead of saving his damn wife ๐คจ. We all cried when saw marinette heart broken when she cried in her bed thinking she can never be with adrien ๐ญ๐ฅบ. We all love plag and his smelly disgusting camamber๐คข, we all love chat noir ๐ช and we all hate it when they keep postponing the show all the time ๐๐ญ. Weโre more connected than we realize. We come from different backgrounds, but the art that moves us, the stories that bring us joy, are the same. We all come together to celebrate Miraculous, to find joy in the characters, the art, the struggles, and the victories. We bond over the shared love of this incredible story, and that is what makes us human.
But somehow, weโve been taught to hate. Weโve been made to believe that disagreement means we must dehumanize each other. That if we disagree on one issue, we must abandon the humanity of the other side. I feel this divide so deeply within myself, torn between my love for my people and my empathy for those suffering. But what Iโve learned is that this is the exact kind of thinking that keeps us apart.
Hate never solves anything. It never has. Whether it was in the Holocaust, during the fight for civil rights, or now in the middle of a war, hate never brings peace. Hate never brings understanding. And when we let that hate grow, we forget who we truly are. We forget that we are all human.
You can critique Gaza and still feel sorrow for Palestinian children dying. You can critique Israel and still feel horror at what happened on October 7th. These emotions donโt need to be in conflict. Pain doesnโt cancel out empathy. Weโre allowed to feel deeply for both sides. Weโre allowed to feel the weight of the world on our shoulders and still hold on to the hope that we can be better.
And yet, when we get caught in the storm of conflicting emotions, we sometimes lose sight of what matters. In fandoms, we should be able to come together as humansโno matter where we come from or what we believe. Fandoms are not about rejecting each other. Theyโre about celebrating what unites us. Art, stories, love. These things belong to all of us. They connect us across borders, across cultures, and across ideologies.
When we dehumanize anyoneโwhether theyโre Palestinian, Israeli, or anyone elseโwe lose something essential. We lose our humanity. No matter how much pain we feel or how angry we are, we cannot let hate win. We must do better. We must learn to listen, to understand, and to respect each otherโeven when we donโt agree.
So, letโs come together. Letโs celebrate the art, the stories, and the emotions that move us. Letโs create spaces where we can feel safe and loved, no matter where we come from or what we believe. Fandoms are for everyone. Theyโre for the dreamers, the thinkers, the doers, the lovers of art. Theyโre not about divisionโtheyโre about bringing us together in the most beautiful, human way.
To demonstrate the value of love over hate, and why hate perpetuates conflict, letโs break it down with clear, relatable examples and insights based on history, human psychology, and shared experiences:
Personal Example: Think about a time you felt truly seen or understood during a disagreement. That moment likely encouraged openness and connection. Conversely, being hated or rejected shuts us down, leaving us feeling isolated.
1. Hate Perpetuates Division, While Dialogue Builds Bridges
Historical Proof: Consider South Africaโs journey from apartheid to reconciliation. If Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu had chosen hate, the nation might still be embroiled in violence and division. Instead, they emphasized truth, forgiveness, and dialogue, which brought about healing and understanding.
Psychological Insight: Hate triggers defensive mechanisms in the brain, preventing empathy. When people feel attacked, they become more entrenched in their views, making constructive conversations almost impossible.
2. Hate Amplifies Suffering
Hate often leads to cycles of revenge, prolonging misery for everyone involved. Look at long-standing global conflicts; the unwillingness to let go of hate has resulted in generations growing up amidst pain, without seeing a resolution.
Example: In the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, hate and dehumanization prevent people on both sides from seeing each other as individuals with shared pain, hopes, and fears. This perpetuates the conflict rather than resolving it.
3. Love and Empathy Heal
Research-Based Evidence: Studies in neuroscience reveal that acts of empathy and kindness activate the brainโs reward system, leading to positive feelings and stronger social bonds. Empathy also fosters understanding, which is the foundation for conflict resolution.
4. The Power of โI See Youโ
Hate tells people: โYou are less than.โ Love says: โI see your pain, and I respect it.โ This acknowledgment can be transformative.
5. Hate Prevents Growth, While Love Fosters Resilience
Hate consumes energy that could be used for constructive solutions. Meanwhile, love and respect create safe spaces for people to grow, innovate, and resolve challenges together.
Letโs add the inspiring example of Rudy Rochman and strengthen the case for choosing love and dialogue over hate:
---
6. Love Has the Power to Dissolve Even Deep Hatred
A Real Example of Dialogue Over Division: Rudy Rochman, an Israeli activist, has shown how love and respect can melt even the deepest hatred. In his conversations with pro-Palestinian individualsโsome of whom openly expressed hostility toward Israelโhe chose to approach them with understanding and genuine curiosity. Despite the sharp differences in beliefs, these discussions ended in hugs.
- Why This Matters: The act of listening, acknowledging the pain of others, and maintaining respect demonstrates that human connection can transcend even the most entrenched divisions. Rochmanโs approach illustrates that people are more likely to respond to love and understanding than to hostility and hate.
7. A Hug Can Say More Than Words
- At the end of these discussions, hugs symbolized something profound: We may not agree, but we see each other as human. That simple gesture bridged gaps that seemed insurmountable. This is a testament to how choosing empathy and respect can build connections, even in the most contentious of circumstances.
---
Conclusion: Hate Shuts the Door, Love Opens It
Would you rather perpetuate a cycle of pain, or take the first step toward understanding, healing, and reconciliation? When we stop dehumanizing one another and start talking with open hearts, we can move from division to connection.
The evidence is clear: hate blinds us to the humanity in others, while love has the power to unite even those who seem irreconcilable. Like Rudy Rochmanโs example shows, all it takes is a willingness to see the other person as human and engage in honest, respectful dialogue. Itโs not about agreeing on everythingโitโs about agreeing to disagree with love, not hate.
This is the real power of humanity: choosing to listen, choosing to see, and ultimately, choosing to care.
The Question to Reflect On:
Would you rather be stuck in an endless cycle of hurt and hate, or would you choose a path where, even in disagreement, you are met with understanding, compassion, and respect?
By choosing love and dialogue, we create an environment where healing and solutions are possible. Itโs not about erasing differences or pretending conflicts donโt existโitโs about humanizing each other and recognizing that, in the end, we all seek the same things: peace, safety, and acceptance.
