"It's a mess." This was the Wild Hunter's brief evaluation of Ashe's problem. Kaisa certainly couldn't say this to Ashe's face, so he considered it and conveyed his meaning.

"The three largest forces in Freljord today are Avarosa in the south, Winter's Claw in the north...what do you think the other one is?"

"Troll?"

Kasa shook her head after hearing this and said, "You don't know who the real enemy is."

The word "real enemy" made Ashe frown. Although the trolls were rampant, those big guys were not very smart and did not pose much of a threat.Mei I am not free to sing without Lin Youyong......

And this "you" is also very intriguing. Does it refer to Avarosa alone, or to Avarosa and Winter's Claw?

You have to know that the Winter Claw is their mortal enemy. It is the largest looting tribe in the north. She really can't think of an enemy that can make these two tribes unite to fight.

Even the demigod Volibear, who has appeared frequently recently to cause destruction everywhere, is not immune to the atrocities of the Winter Claw.

After thinking for a while and eliminating many options, an answer that she had eliminated at the beginning slowly emerged in her mind.

"Could it be... you mean Frostguard Fortress?" Ashe hesitated and let go of the reins.

"Hmm." Kassa shrugged and said without comment.

"Do you know that Frostguard Fortress is the residence of saints and a place longed for by countless Iceborn?" Ashe asked back, with a hint of anger in her voice.

Kaisa glanced at Ashe. It was clearly her who said it first, but now she was anxious again... It seemed that she was deceived by the so-called saint.

"Then let me ask you, what does the existence of Frostguard Fortress bring to Freljord? Just because Lissandra, the only surviving sister of the three, is still there?" Kai'Sa conveyed the words of the Wild Hunt.

The three sisters are the ancestors of all Freljord people, just like Yan and Huang to China. You can imagine how high their status is.

If Kai'Sa said this from a Freljord person, it would be quite unorthodox. But she is just an outsider, and Ashe can't blame her for the traditions of the Icefield.

Besides, if you cannot tolerate any rebellious words, then there is no need to discuss it here.

"Frost Priests, that is where the Frost Priests go for training." Ashe said, "They come out of the Frostguard Fortress and guide and protect the tribe with wisdom and healing."

"Are you sure those frost priests aren't spies sent by Lissandra to monitor and manipulate the tribes?"

The Kaisa issue made Ashe's face look very ugly. She did not trust the Frost Priest because her mother Glenna died from the betrayal of the Frost Priest.

That guy was even her childhood sweetheart, the person she trusted most besides her mother and her sworn fathers. In her later experiences, she encountered some frost priests, who often suffered inexplicable hostility because they carried the Bow of Avarosa.

These experiences made Ashe disgusted with the Frost Priests who liked to interfere with her decision-making, but Ashe still recognized the abilities they demonstrated, so she never doubted any connection between them and the saint who walked in the dream.

"Let's talk in the car."

There were so many people around and Ashe was afraid that someone might hear their conversation, so she asked someone she trusted to come and hold the horse, while she and Kassadin hid in the carriage.

Seeing them come in, Ahri and Taliyah, who were eavesdropping, immediately retracted their heads and gave up their seats to sit upright. As for Sephy, she ignored everything outside the window and dozed off with her eyes squinted without moving.

"Why do you say that the Frost Priest is Lissandra's spy?"

"First, tell me how much you know about the three sisters." Seeing Ashe's frowning face, Kaisa conveyed the Wild Hunter's words again.

Ashe thought about it. She was a war mother, and the war mother of Avarosa. She couldn't just speak irresponsibly like others.

"The three Ice Sisters were born in a turbulent era where everyone was in danger. Each of them longed to harness the power of war, and they all paid a painful price.

The eldest sister, Serilda, tried to control the power of the heavens, but lost her voice to the first Twilight; the second sister, Avarosa, faced the darkness of the void under the world and lost her hearing;

Lissandra defied the wild magic of the mortal world itself, and as punishment for her defiance, the Volibear cut out her eyes with his claws, robbing her of her sight."

Ahri's ears twitched at the sound of the wild magic she relied on for her survival.

Although Ionia is called the First Land and the birthplace of wild magic, it was unexpectedly discovered by the Freljord people earlier.

The people who combined with the Vastaya Xaari to create the Vastaya were actually Freljordians who fled to Ionia to escape the Void War. Even the Green God of Ionia was a deity born from the assimilation of one of the Freljordians by the Emperor Willow.

So if you really want to talk about it, Ahri and Ashe might have a common ancestor.

As for Volibear, who blinded Lissandra, everyone is familiar with him. Not long ago, a guy was still clamoring to defeat him every day.

After listening to this, Talia's doubts were about the enemies Avarosa was facing.

The void and darkness beneath the world...why does it feel so familiar? Isn't this what we are talking about?

But didn't the Void War begin in Icathia? How is it related to the Freljord when it's so far away?

In fact, long before the yellow sand was born and engulfed Shurima, the void had already broken into the human world from the far north.

However, that war was hidden and unknown to outsiders for nearly ten thousand years.

Both of them were trying hard to think about the information in Ashe's words. The remaining one, Saifei, played steadily, squinting her eyes as if she didn't care about anything, as if she was offline.

Logically speaking, dragons should like to show off their knowledge.

But Sephy's situation is somewhat special.

The dragon clan in this world has no dragon heritage. Because of their large size, they cannot leave the deep sea and have no interpersonal relationships.

Compared to other dragons, her knowledge is as limited as that of a wild beast. She is simply a village girl among dragons. Even if she wants to show off, she can't.

Moreover, even ordinary dragons might not have the knowledge of the Wild Hunt. Rather than showing off in front of the Wild Hunt, she might as well just sleep.

Chapter 213: The Frozen Truth

===================================

In the carriage, Ashe continued to tell the legend of the three ice sisters:

“Each of the three sisters lost a part of themselves, but together they are unstoppable. The countless battles they waged on the icy plains have brought the Freljord together and prospered, but it will take more than just one person to wrestle the land from the demigods.

Without vision, Lissandra chose to walk in dreams. She discovered that the darkness beneath the world was stirring, so she used a trick to pretend to surrender and obtained almost immortal power from those almost god-like spirits.

So the three sisters and their most powerful followers were named Iceborn. Their icy blood gave them the ability to withstand the coldest frost, and they were the strong ones who survived to the end and seized the land from the demigods.

Things are not over yet, the underground threats still exist and they want to devour the world, so the three sisters go to the demigod Ornn to dig a huge trench called the Howling Abyss, which will be the site of the final battle.

The three sisters gathered their allies and fought a brutal battle with the monsters. Serilda and Avarosa, as well as the Yeti tribe and countless allies, died in the war.

Although the price was heavy, they won in the end. Lissandra successfully repelled the monsters and drove them back to their own world, where they could never come back again, bringing lasting and stable peace to the Freljord. "

"Tsk tsk, is this the history that Lissandra used all her power to rewrite? She never mentioned her collusion with the Void, and those who knew the truth were either killed or fled to Ionia, which was still called the First Land at the time. She also took all the credit for herself and created a saintly persona."

The Wild Hunt's comments revealed many deliberately hidden truths. If they were spoken directly, it would definitely cause the War Mother's faith to collapse and her worldview to be shattered. Kai'Sa was secretly shocked, but on the surface she still maintained an unfathomable expression.

"History is written by the victors, but it is not necessarily the truth. Lissandra defeated the void and darkness outside the world, but the process was not at all what you said." The uneducated Kai'Sa couldn't say these things. The Wild Hunt made complaints first and then polished them for her to retell.

"Lissandra colluded with the Void without telling her sisters, and promised the entire world in exchange for the Ice Bloodline. If Avarosa hadn't faced those things and understood their evil ambitions, she wouldn't even realize the disaster she had caused.

However, it was too late, the void invasion had become an established fact. Faced with this situation, she had only two choices - either let the whole world be devoured, or sacrifice what she cherished most.

Losing ground in the fight against the Watchers, Lissandra chose to sacrifice her sisters and their gathered allies in exchange for sealing the Watchers within the Howling Abyss.

It was just a seal, not a knockback. This move could only delay the arrival of the doomsday. Sooner or later, the World Devourer would break the seal and awaken again. By then, Lissandra would no longer have any cards to sacrifice.

In order to prevent the evidence of her collusion with the enemy from spreading, Lissandra chose to hide the truth. The myths that have been passed down today are all history that she has modified. You all live in the information cocoon she has fabricated. "

After hearing what Kaisa said, Ashe was dumbfounded.

Her first instinct was... where did this unofficial history come from? And it was a very unofficial history. But if you think about it carefully, apart from the fact that the sage character of the Frost Witch was completely destroyed, there was no loophole in the logic.

When Ashe thought that the icy bloodline she was so proud of was actually a gift from an evil creature to a sinner, she felt her whole body tremble and was unwilling to believe that this was true from the bottom of her heart.

"Even if what you said is true, Lissandra went astray for power, but hasn't she tried everything to remedy the situation?"

"So did Avarosa and Serilda deserve to be sacrificed? And so many allies were buried under the ice because of Lissandra's selfishness. Can the mistakes we made be ignored as long as we repent?"

Noticing that Ashe was getting a little too stubborn, Kaisa immediately responded with sharp words, completely disregarding the other party's identity as a war mother.

Ashe, who was awakened by the scolding, seemed to have thought of something. She hurriedly reached out to grasp the ice bow behind her, and tried her best to stay calm with the help of the cold pain of Zhenbing.

"No... the dead will not be resurrected, and the scars left behind will not disappear. If you make a mistake, you should try to make amends. If she still knows how to make amends, it means she is not bad to the core."Mei I I I you I Kong Yong no Lin You Yong......

"Even a bad person knows what is right and wrong when facing death. She didn't know she was wrong, she just knew she was going to die. Otherwise, why would she try so hard to cover up the evidence of her crime?" Kasa added evidence: "I believe you all know the prophecy? It says that Avarosa and Serilda will return one day and unify the many incompatible tribes."

Ashe nodded blankly. She was using this prophecy to make herself the reincarnation of Avarosa to gather people's hearts.

"Just as she could not kill the threat beneath the ice cap, Lissandra could not completely control the legend of her sisters. Instead, she quietly killed all those who were regarded as the reincarnation of the two to ensure the longevity of her rule and continue to seal the horrific secrets she buried under the fortress. Can you say she truly repented? ... If nothing unexpected happens, you have been targeted."

"Also, have you ever wondered why everyone agrees that the north is barren and needs to rely on looting supplies from the south to survive the long winter. But the Frostguard Fortress in the far north has been able to remain self-sufficient for thousands of years. Could it be that Lissandra can conjure food out of thin air? They don't have Ornn's giant jars, and just a bite of the contents can keep people going through a whole cycle of seasons."

"The north is a little barren, but it's not uninhabitable. The warriors don't need to rely on looting for a living. What Lissandra wants is for the Freljord people to kill each other and fight for thousands of years. In this way, no one can threaten her position. And those frost priests are her human trumpets and spies in each tribe. Lissandra walks in the dream, conveying her will through the mouth of the priests, instigating you to kill each other, just to trap you in an endless cycle."

Hearing this, Ashe's ice-blue pupils suddenly shrank.

It's all right! Everything is all right!

If what Kassadin said before was too far away from her and didn't feel real, what she said at the end completely corresponded to her real feelings.

Why did the Frost Priest have inexplicable malice towards her and want to interfere with her decision-making; why did the northerners have not made any progress in thousands of years, and only knew how to burn, kill and plunder like barbarians;

Even their current greatest enemy, Sejuani, the leader of the Winter Claw, is her childhood sister who broke up with her due to different ideologies... just as Avarosa and Serilda are also sisters.

It's hard not to believe that all of this is reincarnation, and they all live under the control of Lissandra.

"I can't believe we have been living under the deception of Lissandra."

Ashe woke up, and at the same time fell into a state of sober despair. It was like being trapped under a thick layer of ice—cold and suffocating, the body unable to move, and the soul trembling constantly.

She originally just wanted to ask Kai'Sa about her opinion on the situation in Freljord, but she unexpectedly heard the modified historical truth, Lissandra's shocking conspiracy, and the impending doomsday that she was powerless to change.

But she couldn't tell anyone else and could only bear it silently.

Without evidence, even if she told others, it would only be regarded as crazy talk. Spreading fear would only bring trouble to herself. Her only choice was to break all the secrets she heard today and swallow them down.

She could do nothing. She was just a mortal, and could not reach the borders of Lissandra. She was powerless to solve the disaster that the other party could not solve.

Some things are like this, it's better not to know. She could only pray that Kasa had made up a perfect lie to deceive her.

However, lies are never perfect.

Chapter 214 Dreaming

=============================

Watching Ashe leave the car in a daze, Kaisa's frown remained tight.

"Is it really a good idea to tell her this? She has no ability to help us deal with the observers. Even if she knew, she would only be frightened. It is better to let her live in ignorance."

"The reason why Belvis asked us to come to Freljord is because Lissandra can no longer suppress the Watchers. It is estimated that the truth will only be revealed in Ashe's generation. Even if we don't tell her, she will know it sooner or later.

The Wild Hunt gave an answer. In his opinion, Belvis was just trying to save a dying horse by asking Kai'Sa to come to Freljord to help her eliminate the Watchers.

How could Kasa help her solve the enemy that she herself could not solve? The reason for doing this was just to make a miracle happen to Bokasa.

"So we don't have much time left. It will take a few years at the earliest and decades at the latest. We must find a way to deal with the monitors during this time." Kassa murmured, holding his smooth forehead.

"What's going on? Aren't we here for travel and adventure? Why is the world about to be swallowed by the void?" Their conversation frightened Ahri and Talia beside them. Even Saifei, who was pretending to be asleep, opened her pair of vertical pupils, which were full of confusion.

"Don't worry too much. Although I can't think of a way to kill the Watcher for the time being, there is a way to delay its awakening." The Wild Hunter comforted him. If he wanted to, it would not be difficult to delay it until his followers died of old age.

"What is it?"

"It's just an immature conjecture. It requires some materials and an Iceborn to test it. If it can succeed, Lissandra must cooperate."

"Iceborn... no wonder you told Ashe that."

Kassadin suddenly realized and felt that he suddenly understood the Wild Hunt's intention.

However, she only thought of the first floor, while the Wild Hunt was on the fifth floor.

……

There is a widely circulated story about the three Ice Sisters.

The eldest sister, Serilda, represents the force of conquest; the second sister, Avarosa, symbolizes the wisdom of enlightenment; and the third sister, Lissandra, is the embodiment of political intrigue.

If anyone was told that they had some quality comparable to the three sisters, they would consider it a compliment.

However, after knowing what this so-called political conspiracy specifically meant, Ashe was distracted the whole day.

The Frostguard Fortress, which had once seemed so majestic to her, had suddenly turned from a sanctuary for the Freljordians into a theocratic cult.

The huge gap between them was a huge blow to her, and for a moment she didn't know whether her efforts were still meaningful.

That night, Ash had a dream.

She dreamed that she went back to the age of ten and followed her mother on a journey to find the tomb of Avarosa.

That year, her hair was still golden, her mother was still alive, and she had five loving fathers. Two of her brothers and sisters did not live to see their name day in the spring, so she enjoyed the exclusive love of her parents.

But as the journey progressed, those tragedies that she would never forget reappeared one after another.

For the sake of an illusory legend, the obsessed War Mother led all the tribesmen to migrate. They were starving and cold, and in order to survive, they chose to break into the territory of the Ice Sons and plunder their herds.
