(Familiarity with the "Zed" comic and the "Awaken" music video is necessary to get an idea of ​​what is at the beginning of the story.)


An old workshop in the center of Zaun was ruined by one of the performances. Nobody in their right mind would venture into such a dangerous area, especially when the whole building would collapse. Only four people were inside, Zed, Shen, Alali and Jhin. It was because of the psychopathic killer that it all happened. He was defeated by three knights ninja alone Khada Jhin did not start the scandal that started a few years ago.

Jhin: You are not going to tell the truth, Zed? You know very well who let me out with you.

After these words, Zed threw him furiously at the feet of Shen and Akala.

Zed: Take him! The end of our arrangement.

He immediately went to the edge where he threw himself down to leave the place as soon as possible. Akali and Shen came to the cliff to try to stop him. Jhin had the perfect opportunity to escape. He got up quietly when the two left, but Akali and Shen reacted and started chasing him. Jhin was banging pieces of wall behind him that had exploded. Fortunately, he had a plan "B". If something went wrong, he set traps for enemies at the emergency exit. As soon as he ran through the prug he activated floral traps. The explosion destroyed the exit, leaving Shen and Akali inside and Khada Jhin escaped. It was really bad for him for a while. Not only was he wanted by ancient enemies, but he also clashed with the Ferros clan. He didn't know who to fear more. Zed with Shen or the Ferros clan, which was a challenge for him. He hid nearby so that none of the three ninja could find him. He secretly caught Zed, who furiously wanted to leave Piltover as soon as possible. A moment later Akali and Shen followed a similar path. He waited a moment longer to be sure that nobody would catch him.


A few days earlier, when he reached Piltover, he couldn't stop himself and killed them as soon as he found the perfect victims. They were mainly merchants who exported weapons to Ionia. That was for a few days until Puka was not sought by one of the salute but not the strongest clans in Piltover. After all, he had a worthy rival. He attacked and set traps in theaters to admire his actions. He mainly remembered two of them because of a certain person. One out of town old abandoned theater where the corpse of his audience has been up to now and another theater located in Zaun. There he met someone incredibly gifted, equal to the famous Camille Ferros. He met her for the first time in an abandoned theater outside the city and the second in Zaun. She was different than everyone else. Not only because she was a half machine but her abilities were admirable. It's been two weeks and he was just waiting for her next attack.


Jhin came out of his hiding place and slowly arranged another owl performance. Walking through the streets of Zaun, he slowly entered the Piltover gates. He wanted to see and perform the show in the most modern of the theaters that were known throughout Runetera. When he entered the alley he heard the familiar sound of sent hexteh ropes. he turned and a tall figure stood behind him. She stood against the light, so she looked like a shadow, and the only light that illuminated her was a light blue crystal on her chest, turquoise eyes and she had on her hips glowing with equally bright blue color. It was Camille Ferros herself. Jhin knew he was in trouble. He didn't make any plans, apparently she had to follow him all the time, or she planned it. He turned toward her, hiding his hands behind his back. He was looking at a tall woman who was not much smaller than him. She slowly approached him with an elegant step.

Camille: Are you not going to run?

Jhin: Why would I have?

Camille: All in all you are right. I'd get you anyway.

Jhin himself did not know what exactly he was planning. The gray lady could be alone or she could have allies who were just surrounding him. Jhin never liked to do something for the so-called elemental. He preferred to calmly develop a plan also with possible escape if something went wrong. When he was quickly thinking about the plan, the woman was only a few inches in front of him.

Camille: Are you giving up? If you give in, maybe he'll give you his life.

Jhin: I could always shoot you in the stomach or other exposed part of the body.

Camille: You couldn't make it.

Jhin: Or maybe you want to find out?

He spoke pretending to be serious and threatening. Camille opened her eyes slightly wider as if she were surprised or interested in his words. She thought they were real, but he only pretended. There was something about her that he admired but could not quite see. Was interesting. I wonder what he holds inside himself. When he first met her, he saw something but did not know what.


That day, he admired the old abandoned theater. Several young and reckless Zaunites were inside. Jhin made this beautiful day unfortunate for them. Killed all creating audiences. The stage had several holes. Broken instruments were pounding on the floor. The only thing that was in good condition was the church-like organs. They spread over almost the entire stage, sometimes going beyond it. Khada already had an audience. He looked around seeing the dilapidated walls or a huge chandelier barely hanging. He was expecting an attack. He heard about a person who was extremely talented and he wanted to see her and make her another beautiful work. He set traps and waited for a mysterious person.

The sun has already set and he was waiting for her, winning songs on relatively functioning organs. When he finished arranging the songs, he heard someone break the door and activate some shelves. Jhin did not leave the organs. Sitting in the back, he listened as a woman dug in through hollow holes and avoided the traps with great precision. A steel shadow landed with a loud bang. Jhin turned slightly. He was fascinated by how she passed his shelves without any injuries. Khada stood up and stood in front of her. They were on the other side alone when the attack took place.


Jhin remembered his first dance with her. He led them perfectly even this time, but this time she was the better at taking her first steps. He could run away and hurt her, but something stopped him. He made a sour face under the hood. He wanted to meet her, talked to her, watched her closely. He closed his eyes, took two steps back, and sighed finally, bowing slightly.

Camille looked at him crookedly, because she didn't know what she was up to. She felt a little fear for a moment but the seriousness and confidence were stronger and dominated her fear.

Camille: Are you suggesting me something?

Jhin: Why not. I'm just giving you a gun.

After these words he straightened up and saved his "whisper". Giving him to a woman. The slightly surprised one took his weapon and chained him. She didn't understand his thinking but wanted to get some information out of him. Not far were her soldiers, who immediately took Jhin and locked him in a private prison where the Gray Lady kept the worst criminals who were either really strong and she wanted to know why it was so or those who interested her to some extent. In Khada's case there were both. The day was not over and the steel shadow was thinking what she would ask him the next day.





I don't know if this can be called a prologue to the end, but ... Why not. : p
