Runeterra: I actually know a little bit about everything

This is history, and it is history that every Freljord resident knows well.

This, however, is completely contrary to what Zuo Chi knew and what Ai Xi dreamed of!

Zuo Chi had to admit that Lissandra did have something special.

In fabricating these histories, she not only erased the fact that she made a deal with the Void and guided its arrival, but also took the opportunity to smear the Old Gods, including Volibear.

Back then, when Lissandra drained the Yeti's power and unleashed a massive ice-sealed tomb, almost everyone who participated in the battle died. The only survivors were either killed by her or recruited into the Frostguard.

In this situation, she seemed to become the only one who could write history.

This time, history is not written by the victors, but by the "sole survivor".

Every Freljordian firmly believes in this history, so they have no hostility towards the Frostguard and Lissandra; at most, they just think the Frostguard is very xenophobic.

This is perhaps the meaning behind Lissandra's efforts.

However, it seems that there are never any secrets in the world.

Ten thousand years later, Ashe, who possesses the blood of Avarossa, obtained the Avarossa Longbow and awakened the bloodline within her, regaining some of her memories.

In Aisha's dream, everything that happened in the past is replaying itself, but it is still in its early stages and somewhat blurry.

This is precisely the true meaning behind Lissandra's persistent desire to kill Ashe and Sejuani.

She would never allow Ashe and Sejuani to awaken their past memories, because once the two knew everything that had happened, what Lissandra had painstakingly maintained for millennia would completely crumble.

Thinking about it this way, it all seems to make sense.

Zuo Chi hugged Ai Xi tightly and tapped her forehead.

"Honey, I'll tell you a story after I get back from the Frostguard, okay?"

Aisha blinked: "Why do we have to wait until we get back?"

"Don't ask so many questions. Time is of the essence, and I need to think things through," Zuo Chi said softly.

"Uh." Ashe wrinkled her nose. "Then you'd better come back soon!"

"Okay, go back to sleep."

The room fell silent once more, and Zuo Chi had even more to think about.

Zuo Chi did not choose to tell Aishe everything now, because he could not yet judge the situation under the Howling Abyss, and he was also worried that Aishe would do something impulsive after learning everything.

Once he returns from the Frostguard, he should be able to determine exactly how to deal with Lissandra.

Whether we will be enemies or live in peace depends on this.

This may determine whether Freljord can be unified.

Time passed slowly, and soon the sky outside the room brightened. At that moment, Aisha opened her eyes.

Stretching lazily in Zuo Chi's arms, Ai Xi asked:

Are you going today?

Zuo Chi nodded slightly: "Okay, let's go now."

Ash seemed a little down, but she still said:

"You can take Bloom with you. He should know a lot about that place. Otherwise, it won't be convenient for you to be there without knowing anything."

After careful consideration, Zuo Chi finally agreed to Ai Xi's proposal.

That's absolutely right. Zuo Chi knows absolutely nothing about Frostguard, so bringing along "All-Knowing" Braum would be all the better.

Moments later, on the border of the Avarosa tribe.

Ashe was wrapped in a fluffy blue cloak, her white hair fluttering in the wind. She waved vigorously at Zuo Chi.

"Be careful and come back soon."

As she watched Zuo Chi and Braum disappear into the falling snow, Ashe's eyes held a strangely complex expression.

Recalling her dream, Ashe knew that she was getting closer and closer to the truth.

On the other side, Zuo Chi and Brûlé sat on his large shield, speeding forward across the snow.

This time, Zuo Chi not only brought his Star Iron Longsword, but also Aatrox.

After all, Aatrox is the most qualified to speak on the Void Rift.

During the journey, Bloom sat excitedly next to Zuo Chi:

"My friend, I've heard that you participated in the battle between the God of Thunder and the God of Fire. Tell me about it!"

"Where have you been all this time? Can you tell me your story?"

"The people of the Avarosa tribe are very hospitable, and I quite like it here."

Zuo Chi wasn't impatient at all, and told Bloom about what he had seen and heard during this period while smiling.

The two traveled eastward from the center of Freljord, skillfully circling around the Frostguard outposts and penetrating deep into Frostguard territory.

"Bron, what do you know about the symbols on the Frostguard territory?"

"Of course, my friend."

"I used to often help some of the villagers who had been hurt here," Bloom said with a smile.

Bloom raised his hand and pointed north: "Over there, there's a very special outpost. I was always quite startled when I went there before."

"Oh?" Zuo Chi raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

"As you know, there's a checkpoint every so often in the Frost Guard's territory. And somewhere in the north, near the Frozen Sea, there's a checkpoint with a very special guard—a child and a snowman."

A deep sense of nostalgia filled Bloom's eyes as he stroked his mustache.

"I thought the Yeti race had disappeared from the world, but I never expected to see them there. And there was that little boy who was always looking for his mother. I had promised to help him find her, but unfortunately, I couldn't find her."

At this point, a clear light flashed in Zuo Chi's eyes; he seemed to already know who Bloom was talking about.

The Snowfield Twins—Nunu and Willump!

A smile couldn't help but flash across Zuo Chi's face at this rather special pairing.

“My friend, if you’re interested, we can go and see them,” Bloom asked.

Zuo Chi just smiled and shook his head: "Let's see if we have time when we get back."

As they ventured deeper into the Frostguard's territory, Zuochi and Bron began to see villages and tribal settlements that were not very large.

Like the Avarosan tribe, ordinary people also live in the Frostguard's territory, but unlike the Frostguard, they are unaware of the truth of history.

Traveling eastward from the western border of the Frostguard, Zuo Chi also gained some understanding of the Frostguard thanks to Bron's introduction.

In summary, she was a very wise and virtuous mother during the war.

This name seems to deviate somewhat from previous historical accounts.

Finally, after a day of trekking, a towering dark blue building that pierced the sky began to appear in Zuo Chi's sight—Frostguard Fortress!

That is the stronghold of the Frostguards, and the last barrier protecting the Howling Abyss.

Just as Zuochi and Bron were getting very close to Frostguard Fortress, a very special village appeared in front of them.

From a distance, the village appeared to be entirely populated by children; even the adults were few and far between, mostly responsible for cooking.

Seemingly noticing the confusion in Zuo Chi's eyes, Bloom whispered in Zuo Chi's ear, "This village is called the Village of Abandoned Children. All the children here are homeless."

Zuo Chi frowned.

Brown continued, "In Freljord, far too many people die every day due to various disasters. And those who die, their children naturally become helpless orphans."

"Lissandra specifically established this village to take in orphans, whether they are orphans or abandoned. Lissandra assigns people to care for them, and when they grow up, she selects qualified children to join the Frostguard."

It must be said that Lissandra does a really good job in this regard, but she just always likes to start wars, and I don't know why.

As Zuo Chi listened to Brûlé's account, his understanding of Lissandra began to become somewhat complicated.

This seems like a murderer who has committed numerous crimes but then does good deeds for the rest of his life.

Was he a good person? But he killed many people.

Was he a bad person? But to many people, he really was a good person.

Turning his gaze away from the village of orphans, Zuo Chi said nothing more. Not far ahead was the Frostguard Fortress.

Upon arriving here, the number of Frost Guards patrolling back and forth increased, and Zuo Chi could also see that these Frost Guards were all very strong, and their overall quality should be the strongest among the three major tribes.

Without a doubt, if they were to wage war at all costs, and without outside interference, the Frostguard would indeed have the ability to wipe out the Avarosan tribe and the Winter's Claw.

Walking on the snow, Zuo Chi and Bu Long no longer concealed their whereabouts.

"Brown, when you see Lissandra later, you should try to stay as far away from her as possible."

"Hmm?" Bloom looked puzzled. "Why, my friend?"

Zuo Chi said to Bloom with some helplessness, "Because if we're too close, we might get caught in the crossfire."

"Uh..." Brom was filled with great confusion, not understanding what Zuo Chi was going to do.

Soon, Zuo Chi and Bron, who no longer concealed their whereabouts, were discovered by the Frost Guards, and a large number of Frost Guards converged on them.

"Who are you!"

Looking at the gleaming swords in front of him, Zuo Chi's expression remained unchanged.
