This is a re-upload! A viewer pointed something out re: overlapping audio that was troubling to people who had auditory sensory issues, so I've removed that and am re-uploading the video.
In part 2 of our (very delayed) Runeterra Lore series, we hone in on Demacia - a kingdom with a vendetta against magic and mages.
We approach Demacia much like you would a campaign setting - an overview of geography, culture, a brief history, and then a summary of the current state of Demacia!

Hey folks! You might recognize this video! It's a re-upload of a video I put up at the beginning of June. A viewer pointed out an audio issue in initial upload that had negative consequences for people with auditory issues. So I've reuploaded the fixed version!! No need to watch it again unless you want to - the Ionia video is still coming and will be here by Monday at the latest!

Small correction: Kayle and Morgana are not, in fact, the aspects of justice. They occupy a grey area of sorts. Their mother was pregnant woth the twins when she was embued with the Aspects' powers, and while aspects don't have physical manifestation of their powers, safe for maybe a general glow of otherworldly might, both Kayle and Morgana have wings, which is not a very common thing to have. So yeah, they're not aspects, but they're also not human, they're something else.

@JustBlaisYT 2 жыл бұрын

That’s correct! They functionally “split” the different sides of justice - although I believe post-ascension Kayle is, in fact, the next aspect of justice - but that’s from a rioter Reddit post which are always taken with a grain of salt! Just happens to be a lot of nuance for a 101 video. Thanks for the comment so people can read the clarification!

@tamas9554 Жыл бұрын

Kayle and Morgana weren't chosen by any Aspect. Their mother climbed mount Targon and became the host for the Aspect of Justice while she was already pregnant with the two girls. They inherited their mother's power, so they are essentially born demigods, their powers belong to them, not the Aspect.

@JustBlaisYT Жыл бұрын

Correct! Kayle is considered the next Aspect of Justice post-ascension, but the sisters are sort of a grey area in terms of their celestial power since it came from being in the womb of their mother!

Ngl, loved this vid and your format. Great work! My personal opinion is that Demacia's a bit of a 50/50. On one hand, the paranoia and discrimination against mages makes complete sense when you look on the past. However, with their oppression of the magically gifted, this birthed a new conflict that may be a repeat of the devastation in the east from years past. They kind of dug their own grave with the mage prejudice, even if it made sense.

Wow, what an amazing videos! I'd say there are still a few audio issues - your mic sometimes has a bit of a pop when you start a sentence - but overall, the quality is still amazing. But I do want to say, Demacia is soon gonna get fucked. I adore how the writers slowly realized that 'hey, this is a pretty fucked up society we built here, huh'? I really do want the Demacian Hypocrisy to be fully looked at, given how their entire kingdom is built on 'no mages' and 'fuck dragons', and their biggest hero is Poppy, a literal magic creature, and their current King is now boning a dragon. All and all, really solid story, both from Lol and how you've told it here, can't wait for the next videos.

@JustBlaisYT 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I didn't actually edit any of the audio on this bad boy other than cutting the doubled audio today! My newer pop filter has helped with the plosives quite a bit but there's still little tweaks to be made. Really appreciate the kind words and feedback! Couldn't agree more re: Demacia. So much that just makes it clear they're stuck in too specific a mindset for the modern world - their reckoning is probably at hand.

Yea honestly? Fu*k Demacia. While I completely understand reasons for not liking magic and wanting it gone/secured, nothing exuses the way Demacia chose to handle this. Insted of choosing to create champs /towns/castle in save areas rich in mountains where Young mages could savetly learn how to control there talents so they then can be used to aid comon folk.... They chose to extreminate every possible trace of magic, brainwash people into mindlesly hating it(from what I remember the comon mindset in Demacia is that magic is an ultimate desese that corupts people) and asembled fucking Secret police to do all the Nazi shit. Should magic be kept under control in some way? 110% Yes Should we do this in the old fasion way of fucking extreminating every living pice of in and torture those whe just dont want to die ? Hell no

Small corrections: They fought not in Zeffira. They fought in Demacia(as a city). Also city was not ruined in the end, just harmed by their fight collateral damage. Also Kayle and Morgana fought not really because of their justice views diffirence(they worked together) but because of riot in a city that happened because of some dumb Kayle followers.
