Riot Games released their first Stories of Runeterra video since Bilgewater today, with potential champions of the Targon region in the coming Rop of the mountain set.
The new Legends of Runeterra set, Rop of the mountain, is scheduled to release on August 26. And with their release, there will be three expansions that include Targon as a new region and some of its champions. To hype the start of spoiler season Rop of the mountain, Riot today released a new Taleter of Runeterra movie story entitled “The Vaulted Road.”
A Lunari scout and her Solari lover are the focus of “The Vaulted Road”, with the peaks of Mount Targon as a beautiful backdrop. After escaping from the Solari Sunward Temple, the Lunari prisoner scout meets her lover as an eclipse takes shape in the air. Determined to be together, the two lovers flee as Leona and her soldiers pursue her.
Diana watches from a distance as the two lovers reach an end of the cliff. A Solari soldier shoots an arrow at the two, despite Leona’s attempts to stop him. The arrow flies true, hitting the Lunari scout as the eclipse begins. After predicting in the vision that the eclipse would be their path together, the Solarian distracts his Lunari lover from the cliff. Instead of plumping off the edge of the cliff, the two lovers run together in the eclipse via a magical path, bound together forever.
Diana and Leona have a short and quiet exchange after the wonderful event. But no attack and the two champions go their separate ways.
Based on data leaks, both Leona and Diana have voting lines in place LoR already and are likely two champions to be added within the Rop of the mountain set. It is also possible that the Lunari scout and his lover will make an appearance as support units or perhaps as a new spell.
Examples of champions begin today, with LoR spoilers drop until the release of Call of the Mountain on 26 August.
