As everyone knows, Lux's homeland, Demacia, is an extremely anti-magic country that hates and fears mages.
Yet Lux, a noble lady who ranks below only a few but above millions, is a natural mage with top-tier magical talent.
Although she hid her talent under her brother's protection and continued to live the life of a young miss, until—
Frustrated by this, she wandered and wandered until she slipped into the country's highest-security prison... I mean, what kind of decent person just wanders into a prison?!
There, she met a low-level mage named Sylas.
A normal person would avoid a high-security convict at all costs, but the kind-hearted Miss Lux chose to believe Sylas's lies. Not only did she bring him food and books, but she was eventually used by him, allowing him to steal her immense magic power.
The result—Boom!
Sylas successfully escaped, using the power stolen from Lux to release all the mages in the prison.
This sparked the largest mage rebellion in Demacian history.
That night, blood flowed like a river in Demacia.
That's not all!
It gets even more absurd.
Katarina, a spy from the enemy nation of Noxus, took advantage of the chaos, targeting the King of Demacia and Lux herself.
The reason for assassinating the king is self-evident.
As for Lux, it was because her magical potential was too great, and they feared she would become a threat to Noxus in the future.
In the chaos, Katarina did find Lux, but instead of killing her, she actually ended up saving her.
The unspeakable secret between My Light and Sister-in-law (misty).
Lux, who had no idea what was happening, didn't feel any wariness toward the beautiful woman before her and "accidentally" let slip the king's location.
The result?
King Jarvan III passed away that very night!
Meanwhile, she was perfectly fine, without even a scratch.
What a brilliant technique for shifting aggro!
After that battle, Demacia's strength was greatly diminished.
The king was dead, and countless soldiers and civilians died in the chaos.
The mage community faced an unprecedentedly brutal purge.
Funnily enough, while Demacians feared mages before, they used to turn a blind eye to innocent ordinary mages, at most throwing them in prison to feed them anti-magic powder and releasing them once they lost their magic power.
But after this incident, Demacia immediately enacted new laws.
From then on, Demacia's treatment of mages was just like how a certain mustached artist treated the'squids'.
It was a policy of "kill them all."
It was a complete lose-lose situation.
So who won?
Noxus won, watching their rival fall into internal strife without losing a single soldier, and even picking up a kill along the way.
Sylas won, going from a prisoner to a rebel leader. Although the rebellion failed, he escaped Demacia alive.
Who else won?
Well... Lux, the one who started it all.
