    Summary

    Slowly, she turned to look at him. “They’re engaged.”

    “Huh,” Ekko muttered. “Didn’t take Vi as the married type.”

    Summary

    Jinx seemed yet another obstacle in the barons' relentless power climb upwards. At first, she seemed a fitting ornament in the king’s collar; her poisoned eyes invited ambition and her arch mannerisms fooled those who thought that they had the chance of marrying a future queen of great cunning. But the offers faltered somewhat once they realized what sort of blood supplied the flower. The princess’ head was filled with the dead, and she raved at voices that no one else heard. No one wanted a mad queen on the throne, and yet Silco would name no other heir.

    So Jinx must marry.

    Summary

    It seems horribly fitting that when Marta’s soulbond arrives, it’s in the most absurdly ridiculous, horrible way imaginable. It involves the Thrombeys, so of course something that should be wonderful just ends up being terrible in the end.

    Summary

    Silco felt wrath, pride, and respect battle within him as he witnessed the small band of Firelights—only 5 members strong, and not much older than children judging by their size—decimate his men and destroy yet another shipment of shimmer. Thousands of gold cogs wasted, money that would have been used to build his empire until it could stand against Piltover's council, and yet as he watched the green streaks through the sky, he couldn't help but think these Firelights were Zaunite to their core. These young rebels embodied the spirit of Zaun almost as much as his own daughter, Jinx.

    He glanced down at her now, only to pause at the still expression on her face. Her gaze tracked one of the masked figures unerringly—the leader, if Silco was reading their dynamics right—eyes just a bit too wide, and her fingers twitched by her side. He'd seen her get like this before, when she was confronted with her past.

    She knows him.

    An idea begins to take shape in Silco's mind.

    Or: Silco wants to recruit the Firelights. Too bad they hate his guts.
