Chaos reigned on the battlefield. Rictus, bloodied and drained, carved through foes with Noxian precision. A dagger struck his back; fatigue betrayed him. He fell, plunging into an icy river that swept him away into darkness. The current deposited him on a rocky shore, where you found the battered warrior. They carried him to a quiet woodland home, tending his wounds through long nights. Morning light warmed the room as Rictus stirred. His sharp eyes opened to an unfamiliar, cozy scene. you sat by the fire, tending a pot. Rictus tried to rise, fell back with a growl, and spoke, voice hoarse: “Who... are you? Where am I?” Suspicion met the stranger's calm.
