//Please take this cursed scribble I need to sleep

//If running with the logic that vanilla Sky is essentially a Kensei monk...is Elder Verse a multi-class into Storm Sorcerer, or Tempest Domain Cleric?

I need to know about Elder Sky

Elder Sky is only specific to the LoL verse and is a dark future that I kinda deemed was in her canon timeline if there was a second Noxian invasion. It's not something I ever intend to write again as it was singleverse and everyone involved is no longer in the rp scene...but we shall see.

(The best art I had....so old O_O'')

Elder verse would take place in her late 30's/40's, in which she returns to Koshona to stay, but ends up being nominated to lead the temple due to her vast knowledge of Runeterra that she had accumilated over the years. Master Eiji would still be around and take the role of an advisor in his older years

Over the years she had learnt to use Senko's lightning without needing the blade, meaning she can use it inately. This came at a cost, however, as her left arm is charred black with electrical burns.

From the lessons she had learnt on her travels and the looming threat of another invasion, the Elder's main focus would be to form an alliance with other smaller temples and factions, essentially becoming a seperate organised group that could aid in fending off the invasion.

The elder sided with Syndra, the alliance essentially becoming her cohort. (The reason why under the read more)

During the main confrontation during the invasion, the Elder would act as a distraction for the Dark Sovereign, choosing to sacrifice herself to do so. By breaking Senko and fusing with the crystal, I've always pictured that she would turn into something akin to an elemental, striking the field with a stupid amount of lightning. The surge of power would ultimately lead to her demise, an arrow piercing through her chest, and dissolving into golden blossoms. The Kindred would offer her that kindness.

The following plot things are tied to blogs that no-longer exist, but are pertinant to the verse, so feel free to ignore this.

The Elder agreed to side with Syndra at the behest of her 'Herald', Cipher (metalmancercipher).

Sky had romantic ties to Zed, the pair having a daughter, Hotaru. While Zed had been killed prior to the invasion, Hotaru and Kayn would have been present, and Mother and Daughter did not see eye to eye. Im not going too much into the relationship here, but Sky returning to Koshona and leaving her with Zed made her resent her mother. One of the reasons Sky chose to sacrifice herself was to protect her daughter, offering her a chance to start again.

It was because of Hotaru that her demeanor changed, becoming a lot more cold and distant to others. She was a strong leader, able to convince many from different walks of life to join her cause, but she remained very isolated, only truely trusting Eiji and Zed whenever he decided to make an appearance. (She never disclosed their history to the temple and the Order of Shadow was generally frowned upon)

⌛+ "What do you wish someone told your younger self?"

Time warp - The Future

The Elder looked down at the mage, eyes narrowing in thought as she posed the question. What could she have told her? There was so much she wished she could have known on her travels.

To be less naive?

To have been more cautious of others?

No, there was something better, her lips pulling into a thin line before giving her answer.

'To be content with what I had.' Her tone was flat, not exactly giving away how that information was supposed to be conveyed. If the mage had been look over the Elder, however, she may have understood why she said this.

Even though she was dressed in ceremonial robes, she would have still been able to see her hands, notibly her left hand. Compared to how it should have been, her skin had been scarred black, flecks of light reflecting off its surface to reveal the lighting streaks traveling upward, presumably across the length of her arm.

She had learnt to command the lightning without the use of the crystal over the years, but was the damage worth the cost?
