Planck's execution took place as planned, without the twists and turns of the original world line.
Carrying the hatred of her parents' murder, Sarah pulled the trigger with her own hands, using the pistol they had made for Planck, but which he had attempted to steal and finally smashed in anger, and took the life of her enemy with her own hands.
Ten years later, revenge was finally achieved, but Sarah only felt endless emptiness and restlessness, and she couldn't even enjoy the joy of holding a party.
She sat by the window sill of her room all night, holding a glass of wine in her hand, staring at the crescent moon in the sky in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
Li Lin did not attend the party Sarah held to keep him, and returned to Piltover.
The next day, he continued to rush to Freljord, the final destination of this trip.
With only one week left until the League of Legends meeting at the War Institute, he had no time to rest.
If he didn't think that ordinary people still needed to rest, he would have wanted to go to the northern border overnight.
The location where Li Lin teleported was the icy lake in the central Freljord - the Rakstak area, which was also the new capital where the people of the Avarosa tribe lived all year round.
Here, in the heart of the harsh North, lies the largest freshwater glacial lake in the entire Freljord.
However, compared to the Avarosan's former northern gathering place, the Ornkar Rocks, the climate of Lakstak is much more normal.
Many nomads graze their livestock on the icy pastures south of the lake, and many others have abandoned their tradition of raiding and begun to cultivate land and grow crops that can withstand the severe cold.
Led by Warmother Ashe, the Avarosan tribe united many tribes in the southern valleys and upheld the concept of peace, which happened to conflict with the ideas of Warmother Sejuani of another major tribe, the Winter's Claw.
Although the two were good sisters who could talk about anything when they were young, they are now enemies who have to fight to the death.
At least that's how it was for Sejuani.
It's November now, and the weather in the Freljord has already begun to become harsh.
The annual harvest season has passed and the fertile fields are covered with ice and snow.
The Freljord people's favorite docile Enuk cattle and curly-haired giant-horned goats have long disappeared from the ice.
They had long been moved back to the tribe and kept in enclosures.
If there were no attacks from the Winter's Claw or other tribal bandits, Avarosa and the local sheltered people would easily survive the winter.
Li Lin stood on the western hilltop, looking out over the tiny town settlements in the distance that looked like black dots. The only thing visible was a gigantic statue of Avarosa, leaning against an iceberg and holding a piece of glowing pure ice.
The Avarosans built a wall of ice and stone several meters high in Lakstak, taller than any other tribe, mainly to prevent the Winter Claw from attacking from the south.
The anti-gravity device lifted Li Lin and the armor, and then the pulse thrusters sprayed flames, allowing him to reach the outside of the wall of Laxtak in a short time.
"stop!"
A soldier on the city wall noticed the stranger who suddenly appeared below and immediately tightened the bowstring.
But before Li Lin could introduce himself, another older and stronger man next to him quickly stopped him.
"Stop, this person is not an enemy." Then, he turned his gaze to Li Lin, "Are you the guest Li Lin that Zhan Mu mentioned?"
"The real deal." Li Lin responded in the Freljord language.
This wild land respects strength. In order to avoid being looked down upon by some people in the tribe, he changed into animal-skin clothes to reveal his muscular arms and chest.
The two people on the city wall were stunned, completely unaware of what was happening.
"You, you are not afraid of the cold... Are you a shaman or an Iceborn?" The man who was drawing the bow vigilantly just now asked in surprise.
"I'm Mrs. Piltover!"
The other strong man was obviously more educated than the young man next to him, and had heard of the name of Piltover.
"Hurry up and tell Mother Zhan that Li Lin is here!"
After sending the young man away, the burly man on the city wall said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I don't have the authority to open the city gate for you."
Li Lin gave him a kind smile. "This is your duty to protect the tribe. I understand."
The burly man was obviously relieved and began to chat with Li Lin, but he mainly asked about things outside the ice field.
Li Lin could see that he seemed to be longing for the outside world.
More than ten minutes later, with the muffled sound of a horn in the city, the heavy double city gates were slowly pushed open.
A group of Avarosans dressed in various clothes poured out of the city gate. Most of them wrapped themselves tightly in leather armor made of animal skins, with the exception of a few men and women who were scantily clad.
They are the Iceborn, not afraid of the cold, and have a magical bloodline inherited from ancient times. They have been connected to the magic of this wild land since birth.
Among them, some are gifted and can control the magic ice created by the demigod Anivia, which is fatal to normal people if touched.
But Li Lin knew very well that these Ice Descendants were all the result of the void touching this world.
The Frost Witch Lissandra made a deal with the Void Watcher, exchanging Runeterra for powerful power, and this is the origin of the Ice Bloodline.
Li Lin quickly retracted his gaze and focused on the man and woman who were leading the group.
The woman among them had flowing white hair and was wearing a navy blue hooded dress with gold patterns on it and a white cloth belt around her waist. Almost half of her skin was exposed to the snow.
Especially the Zhenbing longbow behind her, which was made entirely of Zhenbing and emitted a deep blue light, was even more eye-catching.
She is Ashe, the war mother of the Avarosa tribe.
