The Fangs Of Zaun(Arcane x Male Reader)
Long before Piltover and Zaun became the cities everyone knows today, there was something far darker lurking in the shadows-something the people only whispered about. They called it the Predator. Bodies were found drained of blood, throats torn open as if by some savage beast. Fear spread through both cities until Piltover finally decided to act. After years of hunting, the trail led to a hidden castle buried deep beneath Zaun. Inside lived a family unlike any other. Enforcers stormed the place, cutting down every last one of them after a brutal fight. Two more years of bloody research gave Piltover their answers-weaknesses, methods of killing, ways to end the nightmare once and for all. Or so they thought. What no one knew was that the clan's leader had hidden his youngest son away, sealing him inside a coffin of eternal sleep. The boy would never age, never die, only wait. And now... he wakes. Y/n opens his eyes after a century of silence, his body untouched by time, his heart consumed by rage. Piltover may believe they erased his bloodline from Runeterra- but he's here to remind them that monsters don't die so easily.
Book (1): Helen, the Dreamer
Helen has never felt like she belonged. In the smoke-choked streets of Zaun, she is known more for her failures than her gifts. Her inventions spark and break, her hands tremble when the world grows too heavy, and those who care for her whisper warnings that she will only bring ruin. Yet Helen cannot stop dreaming. She believes that in the chaos of the undercity there must be a place where she can matter, where she can become more than the fragile girl everyone sees. When she crosses paths with Rhett, the man who shields her but never trusts her, with Tavi, the reckless boy who makes her laugh, and with Elora, the Piltover enforcer's daughter who should have been her enemy but becomes something far more complicated, Helen's world begins to stretch in every direction. And when Dr Marrow, a fallen scientist exiled into Zaun's depths, tells her that her failures are brilliance in disguise, Helen tastes for the first time the kind of validation she has always longed for. But Zaun is not a city that forgives mistakes. Every invention has consequences and every choice pulls her closer to losing the people who love her most. To prove she is more than a mistake, Helen may have to sacrifice everything she still holds dear.

The Arcane Trilogy: Sins of the Past - Book 2
With a single pull of a trigger, one girl pushes Pilltover and Zaun down a bloody path towards an inescapable war. Lives will be broken, old bonds shattered as new ones are formed, and in the aftermath, many great powers will rise up, all seeking to win the most dangerous game of them all. No one is safe. Part 2 of 'The Arcane Trilogy' and my version of what a season 2 story could HAVE looked like. DISCLAIMER: I am a fan of Arcane. I have researched into LoL lore for inspiration, but I will NOT be using this as a faithful prequel to the current game lore. IT WILL BE ITS OWN STORY. This means that I may end up killing characters off before they reach the position they are in the game. I do not own Arcane. Any original characters are of my own making. THIS STORY WAS PLANNED AND WRITING BEGAN BEFORE SEASON 2 RELEASED. PLEASE CONSIDER THIS SERIES A CANON DIVERGANCE FROM THE ENDING OF SEASON 1. ELEMENTS OF THE CANON SEASON 2 WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR BOOK 3.
