Jaune a huntsmen-in-training is currently seen in the mind scape playing a game of chess with Joraal out of boredom, his body took a huge beating from Renekton and he can't wake up until his body is healed enough, so to pass the time, the two of them are playing chess and it seems they have ended in a draw with two kings and one pawn left on the board

Jaune has a lot of cuts and bruises all over him and it seems they are slowly fading but first he has to finish this game of chess

Jaune would move his king pieces to eat the pawn and sighed, its been the 69th game and it was another tie, either they're both that good or they're outwitting each other

"So anything else you want to play? Chess is getting too boring right now" Joraal asks

"No.... unless you want to play video games but... can that even work?" Jaune says as Joraal looked intrigued

"Video games? What are those?" Joraal asks curious to know what they were

Before Jaune could say anything, he notices that he doesn't feel much pain anymore and most of the bruises and cuts were now almost gone

Jaune smiled and stood up "Well it seems I could go now, and you might want to watch this" Jaune said as he disappears while leaving behind a T.V. and remote

Joraal took the remote unsure of what to do but his instinct tells him to use this and so he points it at the T.V. and presses the red button turning the T.V. on and watch a video about video games

Soon, Jaune opened his eyes, he woken up into a dark prison cell, lucky there was still some light inside for him to see, he notices that there was another cell across his, he focuses in and sees Sivir chained up her hands and neck, along with torn clothes, bruises and scratches all over her body

Jaune boost his aura and channels them to strengthen his hands, Jaune as punches the bars which bent the iron enough for him to pull them open allowing him to enter Sivir's cell

Jaune would check up on Sivir and see the tear tracks running down her face, and her eyes were shut as Jaune saw small amounts of blood from her mouth

"Don't worry Sivir, you'll be okay" Jaune mutters as Sivir was still unconscious

Jaune would break the chains as he cleans Sivir from the blood and white stuff then he picks her up and carried her on his back

"I don't know where I am or how to get out, but that won't stop me from getting out...." Jaune spoke as he walks off at a random direction

The more Jaune wandered around aimlessly he notices that the walls were moving as he took a closer look he realizes the walls were made of sand however the wall don't seem to break when he pokes a hole into it, sure his finger still sinked in, but as he pulls his finger out the hole quickly filled up with sand as if nothing ever happened

'Is all of this made from magic?' Jaune asked himself as he suddenly felt Joraal's presence

'Yes and it seems we might be underneath the capital of Shurima, with all these walls' Joraal spoke to which Jaune nodded at that

'These walls are made of sand yet the walls are still moving as if they are alive and even after all these years these walls haven't collapsed in' Jaune said as he looked around observing the walls

Joraal couldn't help but smile at that 'The sand crafters made it easier for us to build these walls, it took some a while due to be new to sand crafting but once they got the ropes, they make beauties like these "living" walls' Joraal explained as Jaune looked on in awe

"I wish I could've seen Shurima back then"

"Shu-rima?" A voice spoke

Jaune turned as he looked at Sivir who was half awake, he sighed in relief that she was fine
