All of the animal hybrids of Shirima, Nasus, his brother Renekton, and Emperor Azir were all ascended using the powers of that giant sun disc. Xerath was Azir’s private slave who stole his ascension and ended up as a being of pure energy. By comparison, Azir and Nasus are good, Renekton and Xerath are evil. Overall, Azir is fairly neutral, he’s an ancient emperor from Shurima resurrected, and he mostly cares only about restoring Shurima to its former glory. He thinks he’s doing the right thing for his nation, but it’s implied that a lot of smaller cultures in Shurima don’t agree with his ideals. Also, Legends of Runeterra is constantly trying to add more single player modes, so that more casual fans can play and build decks with their favorite characters without worrying about being “good” at the game

Originally Renekton just a beastly entity who sought to hunt his brother Nasus, and that... was it. He was on of the original Judgements, and it only chronicled summoners using him to fight in the Fields of Justice. Nsuswere two animal-headed demigods (and brothers) who were guardians of a lost civilization. Nasus had even less than that, wasn't even one of the original War Institutes Judgements. It wasn't until Xerath did the story start. Originally Xerath was a Shurima mage who had a weird idea about just... letting the chaos of magic take over and not exert control over it as mages do. Xerath decided to create a ritual to unleash an uncontrollable amount of magic, and turn it into a spell. From the judgement it's implied he was overhwelmed by the arcane and was bound to a stone sarcophagus, and implies he probably destroyed a whole city. Back then Shurima was wasn't much more than "city in a big desert". It wasn't until Azir did his lore change, along with Nasus and Renekton. You can read the short stories on the site, but Azir's Ascension gave Nasus, Renekton, Xerath, Sivir and Cassiopeia more lore agency. Cassiopeia is also one of the few to have a Judgement. Though I remember years ago she was a Noxian spy-mistress and sister to Katarina, daughters to a commanding Noxian general. While Katarina did the "wetwork" Cass traded secrets. Though this doesn't seem to be in the judgement I remember there was a story where she was instructed to ply some secrets from some noble from a far land. He told Cass she had to keep the secrets, and asked her to swear on a strange serpent idol. Thinking little of it she did, and when she betrayed the noble by telling the secrets to her father she became cursed as a half-serpent. The new lore does work better. Sivir was basically a mercenary and she was THE BEST. She had grown very rich from the mercenary world and she and her company commanded the steepest of prices. It was easier to tie her into Azir with Shurima, since she is originally from Shurima, and being a blank slate helped. If you wanted to look at the old lore you'd have to search for "The War Institute". The old lore isn't on the official site anymore, but there are a few wiki pages which do. It's all text stories but it makes for an interesting read in how they tried to shape the lore around the game.

According to the lore Ryze is way too powerful. When he says "some say i hold too much power" is absolutely true. He's VERY powerful. And those crystals are World Runes. A world rune is EXTREMELY powerful. A guy only touched it once and he become Brand the champion in league of legends. A burning fire demon. And yes these were the world runes heimerdinger was talking about. The Rumors of Ryze being the wizard who was in Arcane is because his ultimate ability in game is teleportation. He can teleport himself and his team anywhere in the map. Which he did in Arcane. He teleported all of them into another part of the world which had summer.

Maybe they thought it didn't look right in the context of the world, maybe they didn't want to make it too obvious, or maybe they're planning on having him turn purple later via some story event. I just find it highly unlikely that they'd use an altruistic, super powerful mage specializing in teleportation magic in their League story and make it an original character instead of Ryze. Plus in the Call to Power cinematic the teleportation magic he uses makes a very similar sound to the ones the hexgates make in Arcane, and the hexgates were created from knowledge Jayce got from seeing the mage's teleportation spell. It's not guaranteed to be him, but I'd be very surprised if it wasn't.

Shurima is stylized after ancient egypt as you see and here is 'rough' tldr of the story of the region, it begins much earlier than what I start here from but too much to explain - just relevant to those characters: - Shurima was an empire west of Piltover (in canon, non-Arcane universe Zaun was actually og Shurimian village) - They had power to empower worthy people into Ascended beings - they usually took Animalistic shapes - with use of The Sun Disk (you can see it at the end of Rise of the Ascended video) - Narrator of 1st 2 vids is Nasus - Curator of Sands, Ascended (The Dog-Shaped one) and War Tactician for Empire, Guide for Azir too. - Other Ascendents are Renekton (Crocodile), Azir (only after his resurrection, like in narration - Bird-like) and Xerath, but his case is weird. - Main 'drama' is that Shurima was Slave-Powered empire and Xerath was Azir's personal slave. Because they became friends, Xerath murdered everybody that could threaten Azir's rise to power - in hope that Azir will free all the slaves... but Azir didnt do it for a long time. He wanted to but also wanted to secure himself a stable position to become an ascended 1st, and his grave mistake was that he didnt tell Xerath about it. So once Azir was supposed to Ascend, Xerath didnt want to passively watch how his chance for freedom passes away, and pushed Azir off the thingy for Ascension and took power for himself. Azir died, Nasus locked Xerath in the tomb thanks to Renekton's Sacrifice and empire fell in civil war with other Ascendeds fighting for power - that became known as Darkin.

Quick breakdown of each character in the cinematics (not gonna do timestamps this time because there's so much overlap and because most of them have their names said). Disclaimer that Shurima is probably my biggest blindspot lorewise. I'm very new to Runeterra lore in general, so I'm still learning: Casseiopia (cass-ee-oh-PEE-yuh) is a Noxian noblewoman (as the video says). What the video doesn't show is that she underwent a transformation in the tomb and is now sort of a cross between Medusa and a naga (as in she looks like a naga (upper half is a human, lower half is a snake), but she turns people to stone like Medusa). Sivir (rhymes with "whither") is a Shuriman mercenary. Unbeknownst to her, she is also the last surviving member of Azir's bloodline, and his heir to the Shuriman throne. Sivir, however, wants nothing to do with Azir or the Shuriman throne, and so her whole story revolves around Azir being like "my daughter!" and Sivir being like "no." Nasus (first syllable rhymes with "can") narrates the first two videos and then shows up in both Empires of the Ascended and Ryze: Call of Power. He's the jackal man. Renekton (reh-NECK-tohn) (the crocodile man) is his brother. Their lore goes that Renekton was a mighty but good-hearted warrior, and Nasus was his sickly, nerdy brother. Nasus was selected for Ascension (basically becoming kind of a god) by the Sun Disc, but was too frail to walk to it, so Renekton carried him, even though he as a mortal would be destroyed by the Disc. Instead, the Sun Disc decided to reward Renekton for his selflessness and they both ascended, hence why they have animal features. Much later, Renekton sacrificed himself so Nasus could seal Xerath in a tomb, but Renekton went insane in his centuries of isolation with only the equally insane Xerath there with him. In the centuries since Shurima's fall, Nasus has been maintaining the massive underground libraries of Shurima in his role as the Curator of the Sands. Side note, Nasus is actually one of the few unambiguously good characters in the lore. He's a super chill, kind-hearted nerd, which is kind of ironic since in-game he's a massive juggernaut fighter whose kit revolves around getting more powerful when he kills things. Azir (uh-ZEER) was the emperor of Shurima. Xerath (ZAIR-ath) was his slave. I don't fully understand their story, but basically they were close friends, Azir promised to free the slaves but was unable to keep this promise initially, and by the time Azir was able to keep his promise, Xerath had felt so betrayed that he staged a massive revolt, ultimately leading to Shurima's downfall. Xerath has transformed over time into a being of pure arcane energy. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Azir's head thing is just his head. It might be some metal plating, but even if it is plating, he still has a bird head. He's very much modeled after a combination of Ra and Horus, just as Nasus and Renekton are respectively based on Anubis and Sobek. Taliyah (long e; ta-LEE-yuh) is... yeah, sorry, I don't know much about her, unfortunately. I'll look her up and get back to you. Rek'sai (you got the basic pronounciation right but the emphasis should be on the first syllable). She (yes she) is a hulking monster from the void who now lurks under the sands of Shurima with her countless Xer'sai children. Her in game kit is actually split into two forms; her base form where she walks around normally (ok, normally's the wrong word, but still) and her burrowed form, where she tunnels underground and can't use her basic attacks but has higher move speed. Despite being massive, she is extremely fast when tunnelling, hence how she moved so fast in the cinematic. Ryze is an ancient mage who's been alive since the Rune Wars (which is what Heimerdinger is scared of in Arcane) and now travels Runeterra hunting down the World Runes to make sure that kind of horrible power doesn't fall into the wrong hands. He has no particularly strong connection to Shurima as far as I know. The middle bit of the cinematic shows his travels across Runeterra. In order the characters we see are: Miss Fortune (you saw her in Tales of Runeterra), Nasus, Sona (the musician; you saw an alternate universe version of her in the Pentakill video; in lore she's an Ionian mage living in Demacia who I believe is currently on the run due to Demacia's recent crackdown following the mage rebellion), and Trundle (the troll king; basically, he's smarter and more tactical than the other trolls (but, like, not that much better) and now he's their king and has led them to fight under the Frost Witch Lissandra).

Call of Power is one of my favorite cinematics, and seeing how you reacted and the discussion part of It, makes me love even more watching you. Some interesting things were said in Shurima’s parts, like Akshan, but, as we say in Brazil, It happens in the best families haha. Ryze is actually one of my top 4 favorite characters in League, with Ekko, so there are two more to go. I love his lore and his path to save the world from itself, searching and containing the global runes, and his quotes in the game are awesome as well. The only two missing are Zilean (another “time bending” character, that has his cinematic on the Legends of Runeterra channel called “Guardians of the Ancient”, pretty short and with Irelia and Malphite) and Zoe (that unfortunately, don’t have one cinematic, she a energetic girl, aspect of Targon, that almost never gets down and sad, buuuuuut she also has her own role in the Star Guardians’ alternative universe from Riot and has appeared in the Star Guardians cinematic where she is a villain that makes you have nightmares, literally, so I’m very excited to see when you two are going to watch It, and when this time come, I’ll sure write more compliments of my enjoyment).

Yea, those are "World Runes" that he's gathering, they're capable of creating worlds (and destroying them). Wars broke out between rune holders, which is known as the "Rune Wars" and resulted in god-like destruction (I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but i'm pretty sure the war turned an entire nation into a crater). As result, Ryze has spent well over 1000 years confiscating and hunting down these runes to keep them out of everyone's hands in effort to prevent future rune wars.

Fun fact the person who saved Jayce and his mother was a young ryze before his skin was purple, so the purple guy in that last video is a magic-user, and a bunch of stuff happened with him and his master. All that matters now is that he’s on a quest to return all of the (infinity stones for lack of a better term) to their rightful place, and the cinematic was basically to show how strong he is for resisting the call of power it takes immense will to not take the stones they have wiped out nations before

The runes were used by the Celestials to create world of Runeterra but were lost after and scattered into pieces around the world. After a few thousand years, humans from different regions around the world (Shurima, Noxus, Icathia, Frejlord) started discovering these runes. These runes are basically like nukes. Each region having one nuke and refusing to give up the power as they feel threathen by other regions if they give it up. Eventually someone fired the first 'nuke' and the rest of regions followed, starting the Rune Wars which Heimerdinger had flashbacks on. Ryze's mission is to go around the world to collect these runes and hide them safely away so no one can use it to start another war. But he is doing secretly so no one actually knows what his true mission is. That's why you can probably see whereever he goes the locals are hostile towards him.

You were right about the Void. Many of the creatures and champs that are influenced by the void are purple and glow. Rek'sai is a creature from the void. She can swim underground and teleport to her targets. Kai'sa and Taliyah fought Rek'sai (and I'm assuming her children) in the Call cinematic. Void creatures are a form of corruption that throughout history found their way onto Runeterra. Kai'sa lived in a city called Icathia. Due to some magic meddling, Icathia was transported to the void. She survived there by hunting void monsters using a living symbiotic suit made of a void creature. She later found a portal back to Runeterra.

I actually never thought about the parallels between the Runes and the Infinity Stones. Those _were_ Runes (the planet is called "Runeterra"), and they were central to an ancient thing known as the Rune Wars, which we know very little about. We can infer from Ryze's stories that the Runes were sources of incredible power but also possibly wildly dangerous. They are also the in-fiction representation of a mechanic from the game. When you play League of Legends, you choose a Major and Minor set of runes to enhance your character. The Major Runes align with the colors shown here; Red for the Domination Rune, Green for the Guardian Rune, Purple-ish for the Sorcery Rune, and yellow for the Precision Rune. You'll also note that there's seemingly one Rune missing from Ryze's collection, which would be the Inspiration Rune. Respectively, Domination is about, well, Violence, Guardian is about Life, Sorcery is about raw Power, and Precision is kind of like magical Skill or personal excellence. Inspiration, in the game, is the Rune set that allows you to "bend the rules" the most. It's kind of a catchall for the mechanics that should be in the game but don't necessarily have a clear narrative description. You could argue, reasonably, that because it's Blue, it's quite similar to the Hextech Crystals. They also, somewhat conveniently, map to the colors of league's sort of "original" primary factions - they used to basically be Fantasy Good Guys (Demacia, originally Blue now much more Gold), Fantasy Bad Guys (Noxus, Red), Fantasy Steampunk (Piltover, originally more Gold, now more Blue), Fantasy Dead People (Shadow Isles, Green), and Fantasy Cosmic Beings (Void, Space Gods like Renekton and Nasus originally were, Purple category). Not purely represented are Fantasy Vikings (Freljord), Fantasy Pirates (Bilgewater), and Fantasy Asia (Ionia). Later on, as the game continued to grow, they started to flesh these places out and make them more into their own things instead of having kind of the generic descriptions of "Fantasy {x}." They more clearly defined what the Freljord was instead of it just being "Fantasy Vikings" (it still kind of is), they changed the Animal people from being from all over the universe to being either Half-Fae (they call it Vastaya I think) or Demigods, they took all the humans that were sort of "Fantasy Space People" and shoved them into a kind of Fantasy Olympus called Mount Targon, and then they started to introduce sort of "Internal" conflict within each of the Factions. Demacia hates mages, Noxus is evil and expansionist but only so that they're ready to fight the original Dark Lord of the Shadow Realm whose abandoned fortress is basically their Capitol Building, the Freljord has not two but *three* warring factions and a whole host of demigods that are all a bit "yer dad," and oh don't worry, basically everywhere there's corrupted parts of the world where creatures from an unimaginable void can kill you just by touching you which is mostly the responsibility of the former Fantasy Space People who are all now human embodiments of Cosmological Concepts like Hope, Wrath, War, Trickery, etc. and they kinda fucked up by having enslaved an infinite cosmic dragon that cane literally create and destroy stars and recently letting him go by accident when their Aspect of War got literally obliterated by a demonic, parasitic sword that hates existence. ...so yeah. It's gotten weird. There's a lot to take in.

I love it whenever new league content comes out from your channel!! Just to add a few things (not sure if someone already mentioned this) so Azir sees Sivir as his precious grand daughter, their dynamics in game is kinda funny because Azir tries hard to be close and bond with Sivir but she wants none of that despite being practically an heiress to Azir’s empire. Also would just like to add that Cassiopeia is actually from Noxus, she’s the youngest daughter of one of the very powerful houses there, the Du Coteau family. Her older sister is Katarina du Coteau, the girl with the long red hair (which Ange liked a lot 😂) on previous cinematics. It’s kind of a thing in Noxus to have this ‘power play’ over households. I believe it was mentioned in Arcane how Mel’s mom, Ambessa, visited Mel in piltover because she heard of the power of the hexcore/gemstone and she wanted that power for the Medarda house in Noxus. Same way Cassiopeia went into Shurima to get an ancient powerful weapon in order to bring more power to house Du Coteau. But as shown on the cinematic, she failed and got cursed to be half snake instead

The narrator of the first two video is Nasus, is the "Anubi" demigod that you see in the Tales of Runeterra video and Ryze cinematic. He is wise, collects books and he is one of the good guys but he had a very bad time and depression. His brother is Renekton the crocodile guy, who now is just a killing machine. In the tales of Runeterra video, the guy is not Akshan, he is a general of Azir. However he behaves practically the same. Taliyah (the earth-bender) and Rek'Say (the purple monster in the sand) will appear in other cinematics. Rek'Say is not a demon, but a monster from the Void. Ryze is a mage, and all your thoughts about him are correct. He is a good guy that is trying to collect the Runes to avoid their use in wars, that he saw first hand. And is true that the Heimerdinger flashback was EXACTLY about that: he remembered a destruction of a city by using them. The characters in the flashback are: Miss Fortune (the red hair pirate), Nasus (the Anubi guy that fight the giant stone golem), Sona (the woman with the piano against the ninjas), and Trundle (the 4-meter tall troll with blue skin and red-hair). All of them are champions.

Fun Arcane fact! What Ryze is showing here when he says "never again" is the calamity Heimerdinger witnessed in the past. The Rune War. When he tells Viktor how the hexcore looks exactly like the thing that brought nations to ruins, he's referring to the runes Ryze is collecting. These runes could be compared to an Infinity Stone, they give their wielders godly powers and this is what started the Rune War.

The place with the big trees (Petricite) is Demacia and those trees have the power to absorb magic so Ryze stores all the stones there. All the characters shown are actual League champs... 1st was Miss Fortune u might remember her from Ruination game, nxt was Nasus, the narrator of 1st and 2nd video and the brother of Renekton(crocodile dude); also they are Ascended. 3rd character was Sona, she is a mute who can use telepathy to communicate and she is from Ionia. 4th character was Trundle, he is from Freiliord.

Rek'Sai is a creature of The Void beneath Shurima. It was the giant creature in the scene with Taliyah and Kai'Sa in The Call. If you see purple and it's not Shimmer, it's usually related to The Void. The Void is a little bit similar to the Black Mist in the Shadow Isles, in that it's a malign force that's the result from powerful ancient magics gone wrong.

So, the narrator during the first two vids, it's Nasus, who you guys actually see in the video (he's the... Dog, brother of Renekton, the crocodile) all of the first characters (except Sivir and Cassiopeia) are Ascendant, once humans, but changed into an "animal" looking thing, but giving at the same time truly high powers, also, Cassiopeia and Sivir are also champions, that and, well, in Shurima right now, there's the rumor that Azir is back, but no one actually has seen him, and many thinks (including Taliyah at first) that he would be a bad emperor, wanting to bring back the Shurima that had slaves and all, but Azir didn't want that, so yeah, it's pretty much way more lore behind this(? Rek'sai it's an Void born, but she is like the Queen on the dessert, pretty much the most stronger right now, but also having like an territorial limit, so any other creature that does not belong to her pack, will die

What Ryze was collecting were the world runes, the world runes the catalyst for magic in Runeterra. But in human hands magic is not so good, humans waged wars using the world runes so Ryze took it upon himself to find all the runes and contain them. The Pillars where Ryze put the World runes was made out of petricide, a special type of stone that absorbs magic so that the magic emitted by the runes are contained. Petricide is also heavily used by the Kingdom of Demacia a very anti magic/mage Kingdom.

You have said you want to know everything you can to understand The call so here you go: The thing you need to understand is lore of some specific champions. Here is the list. You read these stories, you understand The Call. 1. Sejuani lore 2. Pantheon lore 3. Kai'sa lore - (mby) Taliyah lore - (mby) Leona lore And yes, Necrit has videos where he tells all of the above stories, so you can just watch these videos. But be carful with the Pantheon video, because he has some 'The Call' footage in the video since Pantheons story was released with delay and it came out after The call. Also here are the titles of most important stories Necrit made videos on regarding The Call: 'Sejuani will fight Volibear', 'The heartbreaking story of Pantheon after Ruination',

Ryze is the one who you could call as main character in league of legends. He is very popular and has an awesome backstory. He is one of the few that knows about the runes, his goal is to collect all the runes and keep it safe so no one be able to use the runes again in the future. In the past the runes was the objects that forged the planet of runeterra (that is why it's called runeterra). Ryze is a very old man that because of his near contact with runes became more powerful (not because he used it but because he was in near contact with runes for hundred of years). But ryze isn't the only one who are aware of the runes and they have more evil ambitions for the runes. The example is Brand, Brand was the pupil of Ryze, he helped him to gather some runes but he was corrupted by the runes causing him to become very powerful and evil (brand is in search for the runes too, his objective is to gather the runes and set the world on fire with that power).

The Thanos/Ryze idea is pretty funny: the "crystals" are so called world runes. World runes are what holds together the existence of Runeterra, and anyone who touches them turns mad from power (as seen in his flashbacks, which was his student corrupted by the world rune of fire, who is now known as "Brand"). The red crystal was the crystal of fire, which was hold in the coldest place of the universe, somewhere far north of Freljord, and Ryze was fighting a watcher (ice eye), basically a leader of the Void, to secure its power. Watchers on their own are very interesting, and are mostly important in Lissandra's backstory, as they tried to use a Void Rift (basically a portal) to enter Runeterra, and Lissandra realized last moment what she was about to release onto Runeterra and froze them into eternal ice, which she (or them, not sure) corrupted into dark ice. Now, Lissandra keeps on practically killing people to keep up that barrier. There are a few other Void Rifts all around Runeterra, like in south-east Shurima, where Rek'Sai emerged of. She's by the way one of the less dangerous Void-corrupted beings, and fairly stupid in relation to other Void monsters. Also: most Void creatures aren't from the Void, but corrupted by it. It's safe to say that Kha'Zix was really just a tiny bug, and Malzahar is what happens to humans corrupted by the void. Rift Herald is a skuttlecrab for example.

1 by 1 Nasus is the narrator of the first two videos. The jackal like character. He is an ascended of Shurima, a chosen one by the sun disk to carry the power to protect Shurima. He is the brother of Renekton, the crocodile one, twisted in mind for centurie by Xetath, the lightning guy. Xerath betrayed Azir the day of his ascention, taking himself the power of the sun disk, reason why he become pure magic power instead of taking an animal body (He was not chosen). Renekton decide to lock himself into a tomb with Xerath, asking his brother Nasus to lock them away. They battled until they was released by Cassiopeia, noble woman of Noxuxs (sister of Katarina the red hair, knife girls we saw in other videos) and Sivir. Nasus and Renekton, brothers who once had a deep loved each other(if you can, read Nasus story because is the most beautiful siblings moment in all runeterra), now doomed to battle becouse Xerat twisted Renekton mind in all those centuries locked in the tomb. Shurima is an Egypt-like region, formed by people who leaved Mount Targon. The Ascension is a Targonian magic. Shurima ascended are called "God-Warriors", targonian ascended are called "Aspect". Shuriman ascension is a stolen rite from Aurelion Sol (The Star Dragon) and the power of the sun, through the Sun Disk. Is not pure like targonian ascension, that's why they change to animal form compared to targonian which primarily retain their human appearance. Ryze, in my opinion, is the actual protagonist of League of Legends. He is collecting World Runes, pillars of creation of Runeterra, to prevent a second Rune War. The forest he brings those runes is in Demacia. Those trees have the power to absorb magic. The pillars he is placing the runes are his "roots". To collect the runes he is traveling to all runeterra, so he interact or touched the story of most of the character of the game. We can see him in the video interacting with Missfortune, Nasus and Trundle. He is neutral to all the events in runeterra, he HAVE to maintain neutrality to collect all the runes.

Rek'sai is a creature of the void, the void is like another very powerful and dark dimension full of Creature, the Vaizio mirrors and threatens the material world of Runeterra, the first place for where the void manifested itself was in Shurima and from there it is spreading, it is the biggest threat of Runeterra

The thing that Ryze is holding is called The World Runes. They are responsible for the creation of almost all life on the planet. Basically, they are infinity stones holding the power to create and destroy worlds. Heimerdinger in Arcane is afraid of Hextech because it resembles World Runes and Heimerdinger supposedly witnessed the Rune Wars.

shurima is inspired by ancient egypt. when somebody becomes ascended they generally take on like an aspect of an animal.

Nasus(Dog man) is an ascended warrior of Shurima, he's the narrator of the first one, and brother of Renekton(Croc man). I suggest looking at a creator named "Necrit", he gives a run down of the whole history of how the current land of Runeterra has come to be. He's so respected by Riot in fact, that in the game "Ruined King" he got a character named after him, a lorekeeper :D

27:12 its the same flashback, about prof. Heimerdonger said not to harness magic in Arcane. (Its the rune stone/core). What jayce do is just a tiny fraction of what ryze is holding. The stone is what keeps the world alive.

Lore dump - Shurima has a Rich History. They were ruled by God kings that used slaves to build an empire. In Shurima, the royal family used something called the sun-disk to create Demi-gods called ascended. Azir (the emperor), Nasus (the dog with a staff), and Renekton(the crocadile) are all ascended and part of the royal family. Xerath (mentioned in the trailer) was not but became jealous when Azir was undergoing the ascension ritual and sabotaged it, becaming an electric elemental entity. Azir had intended to release all slaves after his ascension. Shurima was warring with the neighboring kingdom called Ithica. Ithica, unable to win the war, resorted to using the Void to try and win, The Void decimated Ithica and Shurima struggled to Contain the Void creatures that entered the world. The Ascended beings of Shurima fought against the Void. But after many years the Void began to corrupt the Ascended, who fell to primal emotions of hatred and greed. Only Azir Kept the ascended beings in check. After Azir fell in the Botched Ascension ritual, the Ascended beings lost their Guidance and Shurima fell into Civil War, with Ascended beings becoming dictators vieing for power and land. During this time the Ascended beings became known as Darkin. Later on, the celestials get involved and the celestial of Twilight, Zoe, teaches humanity how to bind Darkin to their weapons and trap them. This Free's the Shuriman people the oppression of the darkin, but leaves Shurima in ruins and a playground for the Void (Like Rek'sai). The Shuriman people become a displaced people of refugees. The cinematics about Shurima is the Return of Azir to life through Sivir's blood, because she is of direct family line to Azir. Sivir is not necessarily a kind person, She is a Mercenary for hire by profession. I hope that gives more context!

Shurima is a deserted place where there is sand... so the story is contact using glass of different colors.

Void is like an alien that tries to invade their homeland, Shurima have a lot of them cuz in the west part of Shurima there was a foolish king who try to summon them by opening a rift and use as a weapon but it infected the land and people with that purple thing(which many people believe that shimmer has originally made from void material) and abomination monster keep appear. Their concept is killing, devouring, and evolving to gather the information of the new environment as much as possible. Void can appear everywhere in the world but the whole army of it only appears in Shurima.

Shurima has a thing called Solar Disc, the giant disc in the clips, and that disc has the power of gods from Targon, actually has the power of the father of ALL the stars and planets in that galaxy, a celestial dragon called Aurelion Sol, anyways, that disc can turn a Warrior from Shurima into a animal demigod (Nasus the jackal, Renekton the crocodile and Azir the falcon) and this demigods até called Ascendants, they are the elite and best warriors from Shurima Empire, when the Empire existed, there's a lot of things tô know about Shurima, by the way Xerath is the responsable for the fall of Shurima's Empire, and he is an Ascendants too, but a evil one, that's why his appearance isn't of an animal, anyway i've writed too much. P.S: Amumu is from Shurima too

So Shurima is a complex reflection of Egyptian and other middle Eastern references. What you need to know is that the Emperors of Shurima once enlightened and prove they have the skill to rule, the Gods bestow power to mortals to people through this giant artifact called the Sun Disc. Nasus and Renekton directly correllate to Anubis and Sebek who are brothers and guardian dieties of respective territories. Shurima also has direct holes into the void after Xerath, who stole more power alotted to him by the disc and couldn't control himself and also the magic energy was basically a giant signal for sealed creatures to take advantage. Sivir's crossblade can seal Gods away if she figures out how to use it. Its like Ezrael who only has 1 glove of a Emperor but helped Kai Sa
