He Comes From the Void

"Warmother Ashe, allow me to introduce myself."

The burly man transformed from an ice eagle knelt down on one knee in front of Ashe. He had a beard all over his face, and his upper body was naked, with only a string of rosary beads straddling his shoulders diagonally.

"I am Udyr, Spirit Walker, Great Shaman of Winter's Claw, Sworn Father of Sejuani."

Ashe was very surprised by the identity of the visitor, Sejuani is now her number one mortal enemy, and her father dared to appear in front of her!

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you? Or arrest you and threaten Sejuani." After being surprised, she became vigilant. Ashe kept a cold face, and her bow hand never let go. the chill.

Udyr shook his head: "Warmother Ashe, I came here to ask for your help. Winter's Claw has encountered an unprecedented disaster."

"Are you kidding, the current Winter's Claw can be said to be invincible." Ashe laughed angrily, and Winter's Claw is now advancing triumphantly, and it might not take long to kill her. This person is To show off and mock?

"That's where the problem lies. It's not an easy matter. Warmother Ashe, please allow me to tell you before you decide whether to help. For Avarosa, and for Winter's Claw .”

"Did Sejuani send you here?" Listening to Udyr's request, Ashe confirmed again for the last time.

"No, I wanted to come by myself, and Sejuani didn't know about it."

...

Ashe put away the ice bow, and the tense atmosphere eased.

She lit the bonfire, and the four of them sat down around the bonfire in the forest, and then she spoke first, with the emotion of recalling her childhood.

Once upon a time, the relationship between her and Sejuani was so good that I could give you half of the food I had. They gossiped and hunted together, and they were always full of happiness together.

"I've never heard Sejuani talk about her sworn father," Ashe said.

As a matriarchal society in the Freljord, women's social status has always been superior to that of men.

Warmothers talk about their mothers or grandmothers to others, but rarely about their fathers. If he's an Iceborn, it's a bit of a talking point, but in most cases a warmother has multiple bloodlines, and her daughter has multiple sworn fathers.

And the only thing is the best to remember, so the war mothers only talk about their mothers to others, and generally ignore their fathers. But if the oath father is a beast spirit walker, it can still be put on the table more or less.

"This is my problem. I left her early to pursue the road of noise. I didn't fulfill my duties as a father. She didn't even know I existed until I heard the call of the beast spirit and returned to this land again. The land, returned to her again."

Udyr replied guiltily that he had a relationship with Sejuani's mother, Kokiya, but he only found out later that he gave birth to a daughter for himself, otherwise he would never have abandoned their mother and child easily, Obsessed with the pursuit of the beast spirit walker.

Strictly speaking, he is not considered Sejuani's sworn father, because he did not form a blood alliance with Kokiya. Even though he is Sejuani's biological father in blood, he is just a wild man in identity. He remains with Sejuani now as a shaman, not as a father.

"Have you ever left the Freljord before?" Ashe asked.

Before Udyr could answer, Kahn pointed to the rosary on his body and said, "This rosary comes from Ionia, obviously he went to the East."

"I have a good eye. This rosary was given to me by a friend of a holy monk in Ionia. It can soothe the restless beast spirit in my body. I always carry it." Udyr replied holding the rosary.

He practiced in the Freljord, met Li Qing, a blind monk, followed him to Ionia for further training, and participated in the war to protect Ionia. recognize each other.

Kahn actually recognized Udyr early in the morning. He was not in a hurry to reveal his identity, but just wanted to see why he came to Ashe. And Udyr is also very honest, without any concealment, the conversation can go on.

"Tell me about your purpose of coming here, what's wrong with Winter's Claw," Ashe said.

"Those trolls, they attacked the Winter's Claw tribe uncharacteristically. You also know that the Winter's Claw lives by looting, and there is not much food in stock. In order to resist the trolls, a large number of soldiers died. After repeated battles, it is hard to return."

Ashe looked at Udyr with a strange expression, and she said: "The trolls also attacked Avarosa before, and we are also victims."

Kahn and Kai'Sa glanced at each other without leaving a trace, their expressions were equally intriguing.

They were the ones who drove the trolls out of Avarosa's territory at the beginning, which caused the trolls to turn around and attack Winter's Claw. Unexpectedly, this group of trolls, like ecological destroyers, drove Winter's Claw here. kind of situation.

"I know, but most of the time I can't help myself. In order to win the war against the trolls, Sejuani was forced to ask for the power of the bear spirit. The addition of Volibear and the bear people greatly strengthened the strength of Winter's Claw , we repelled the trolls and drove them back to the north."

Udyr continued: "But Volibear was not satisfied. He demanded more wars and sacrifices, so he turned to Avarosa. But while the war was going on, the indisputable and undeniable The bear spirit is also creeping into the minds of every creature around, subtly changing them. If it is not stopped, the warriors of Winter's Claw, including the war mother, will all be swallowed by the bear spirit, transformed into lost ones, and become The spirit bear's body turned into a walking dead who only listened to Volibear's orders."

Ashe was shocked when she heard the reason, but she didn't blame Kaisha and the others for causing all this.

If Kai'Sa hadn't chased the trolls away, they would be no better off than Winter's Claw. In the final analysis, he was bullied like this because he was weak, because he didn't have enough power.

"But how can we help you, what do you want us to do against Volibear?"

"If you don't do anything and wait for all the fighters to become losers, then you have no chance of winning." Udyr closed his eyes and meditated, walking in his different forms one by one: the immortal eagle, the alert lynx, the fortitude wild boar, and more than a dozen other beast spirits. There was a pause as he transformed into the form of the Bear, but then his eyes flared open, and he eventually became the Spirit of the Bear's nemesis—the Spirit of Flame, Hearthfire, and Anvil, the Ram.

The bonfire in front of everyone suddenly burned violently. In this form, Udyr breathed out flames and said decisively: "I ask Ornn's strength!"
