The Duality lore

“It was never easy being alone. Death was a curse, experience unfathomed. A warrior
from Demacia I was, Garen’s friend and adviser. We fought together with my brother, Simon.
The war with Noxus and its deadly warriors and assassins shook the very world we live in. Side
by side we fought endlessly, arms tired, bloodied and beaten. I spread my gaze upon the horizon
in search of my brother. I screamed, but all in vain. After a day’s worth of battle, a soldier called
my name. In glee I flew from my seat to follow the voice. But the joy I expected was the other
way around.

Simon’s body lay lifeless among the fallen soldiers… his scythe lay beside him. My
sanity shattered from the sight of it. Eyes dark with grief and rage, that’s all I had. I left my home
after my brother’s funeral, carrying the only amulet he carried with him when our mother was
still alive. I searched the land for a new purpose. Then what happened next will make you think
twice if it’s real…

A Darkin bow was left on the ground, blocking the path to my journey. Then a mist
formed, and then a body, Varus appeared and offered me something I will not refuse. He brought
my brother back to life, but in a form of a phantom. Varus said we must be one, in mind and
body. Seeing my brother again will not change my mind. If being with him side by side again, a
curse or a blessing, I will take it.

‘This is our crusade. We are one… We are Duality made flesh. Light and Dark we serve,
peace shall be restored.’”
