In the most luxurious hotel in the inner city of Vikaola.
Li Lin, Kassadin, Sivir and the girl sat around an old round table.
The girl was wearing a traditional Shurima red robe with a fur collar woven from precious fur wrapped around the collar of the robe. She wore a purple shirt lining the inside of the robe. Under her tight brown trousers, she wore a pair of sand-proof travel boots that were essential for traveling in the desert.
After some understanding, it was found that the girl's name was Taliyah, and she had recently returned to Shurima from Ionia, following a kind caravan from Beljuin through the Great Pass to Kenesor.
Afterwards, she continued south along a river called "Mother of Life" in the desert and finally arrived at Vikaola.
Talia originally planned to exchange all her gold coins for various supplies here, and then set off to return to her weaver tribe.
Unexpectedly, she was distracted on the way because she missed her parents and other people in the tribe, and happened to bump into Li Lin.
Now that they have met, Li Lin will naturally not let this girl, whose fate is intertwined with Sivir's in the original world line, leave.
With Kassadin and Sivir looking at him strangely, Li Lin took the girl, who had obviously not yet had a coming-of-age ceremony, to the tavern to treat her to a meal on the pretext of "apologizing."
Even before the food was served, Sivir was curious about the little girl's trip to Ionia.
Judging by the time, she went to the new land during the invasion of Noxus.
Why would a little girl from a weaver tribe run alone to the other side of the Sea of Watchers, to the distant Ionia?
When asked this by Sivir, Taliyah lowered her melancholy face and told her own experience.
She awakened her magical talent for weaving rocks when she was in the tribe, but there was no qualified teacher in the tribe who could teach her how to control the blessing of the "Mother Weaver".
In order not to harm the tribe members, Taliyah left alone, heading west towards Mount Targon, and trained herself to communicate with the rocks.
However, a group of Noxian soldiers from the northern part of Shurima deceived her into believing that the Empire would find a mentor for her. The naive girl was dragged to the Immortal Bastion by the commander.
Later, under the promise and temptation of an officer, Taliyah was taken to the Ionian front by a warband, attempting to let her use her abilities to massacre the Ionians.
She refused and was thrown overboard by the officer into the raging Watcher Sea.
Fortunately, after a long drift, Taliyah survived and drifted to the extremely cold mountains in northern Ionia.
There, she met a qualified mentor, a ronin warrior who could control the extreme wind through his blade.
After a period of training with him, she finally realized her wish and gradually gained control of her own power. She then said goodbye to him and set off to return to Shurima.
Everyone listened to Talia, sighing to varying degrees in their hearts.
"Noxians are not trustworthy. When I was a desert guide and escorting caravans, I hated dealing with Noxians the most." Kassadin said in a muffled voice.
Following closely, Sivir also said with an unhappy look on his face: "Humph, Noxus is just a bunch of disgusting scum!"
She subconsciously touched her lower back.
Although the wound had healed under the effect of the water of life, not even a scar was left.
But the image of Cassiopeia's dagger and the numbness and excruciating pain that filled his body at that time were still unforgettable.
If Li Lin hadn't said that Cassiopeia had been killed by him with an energy weapon and not even a body was left.
Sivir must chase her to the ends of the earth and grind this bitch's son into ashes!
As the waiters came and went in the shop, the dull, slightly greasy wooden table in front of them was filled with freshly baked meat, bread, oatmeal and cheese.
Of course, in this scorching desert city, a glass of expensive ice-cold beer worth dozens of silver sands is also essential.
The girl, looking a little restrained, looked at the table full of hometown delicacies, and her throat couldn't help but move.
"Eat if you want to. Don't be polite." Li Lin opened his mask and looked at the girl and said with a smile.
"This, this is too expensive..."
Taliyah hadn't tasted the delicacies of her hometown for at least two years.
But she knew very well that this table of food could not be bought without several or dozens of gold plates.
Li Lin pushed a cup of Dasai's unique iced drink that had just been brought to him by the servant in front of Talia and smiled.
Before he could say anything, Sivir on the side unceremoniously grabbed a third of the chopped-up dune sheep's front leg and started chewing on it, muttering:
"You don't have to be polite with this guy. He's a craftsman from a big family in Piltover and has plenty of money..."
"Craftsman?" Taliyah raised her thin eyebrows, a look of surprise on her face. "Is it similar to the weavers in our tribe?"
"Shuriman weavers weave silk and cloth, while Piltover craftsmen research hextech."
As Kassadin explained, he pointed to the power armor on himself and Li Lin, as well as the four floating machines floating in the air outside the tavern.
"These are Hextech technologies, all invented by Li Lin."
Taliyah's light brown eyes narrowed slightly, stunned by Kassadin's words, "Wow~~! This is too..."
She couldn't find a word to describe the exquisite skills of this armor, and immediately lowered her head with a blush, "S-Sorry... I was too excited."
This kind of girl with pure and innocent character can always unconsciously influence the people around her and arouse people's desire to protect her.
