"Stories are not just history. They can be so much more. They nourish your
mind and, if told well, can even fill your belly. Some tales are warnings,
reaching across time. Others uplift our souls from the yoke of everyday
burdens. We laugh at fools, cheer heroes, and curse villains until the fire
burns down to embers.
Our first rule: The facts may be important, but they aren’t as vital as the
telling, of speaking to who we are and why we live. Details might change and
fade, but truth lives with us for all time.
Stories are everywhere. We build them from what we see. Even the sky above
whispers to us."
故事並不只是往事。它們遠超過如此。它們滋養你的心靈，若說得好，甚至可以使
你飽足。有些傳說帶有警惕，流傳千秋。其他的則讓我們的靈魂自平日壓力的枷鎖中解
脫。我們嘲笑愚人、歌頌英雄、詛咒惡徒，直到火焰燒作餘燼。
我們首要的規則是：真相或許重要，但對於探究我們是誰和我們為何而生來說，它
們不比說故事本身來得關鍵。細節或許會改變、褪色，但真實永遠與我們同在。
無處不是故事。我們以眼前所見創造故事。就連天空也會向我們耳語。

"Look toward the Frozen Watcher.
Summer’s grip loosens; winter’s herald dominates the night skies.
A horde of these strange creatures once enslaved the tribes of the Freljord.
They smothered Valoran under glaciers and cast a shadow upon all of Runeterra.
The Frozen Watcher signals the end of the harvest. It reminds us we must all
be prepared to endure winter’s lash."
看那「冰霜守望者」。
盛夏消退；寒冬的先鋒占據夜空。
這些奇異的生物曾奴役弗雷爾卓德的部族。牠們將瓦羅然封於冰川之下，為符文大地
蒙上一層陰影。
冰霜守望者意味著豐收的結束。它提醒我們得準備好撐過寒冬的凌虐。

"A cloud of smoldering destruction hangs in the night sky. This is the Fall
of Shurima.
The Ancients groped blindly in the darkness, threatening to unravel the very
fabric of creation in their hubris. Noble Shurimans who Ascended found a
loose thread in the universe’s tapestry, and pulled upon it. The vulgarity
of their ambition consumed thousands of innocent lives and ended a golden age.
Such was the fate of mighty Shurima and of men who would become gods."
默默醞釀著的毀滅之雲懸於夜空。這是「蘇瑞瑪的衰落」。
先人在黑暗中盲目摸索，傲慢地恫嚇著要將萬物始源抽絲剝繭。高攀而上(※)的蘇瑞
瑪貴族們在宇宙的帷幕中發現一條鬆開的線，並拉了它。他們粗鄙的野心令數萬條無辜生
命消逝，一代黃金世紀就此終結。
這就是偉大的蘇瑞瑪和曾經可能成為神的人們的命運。
※ Ascended：阿祈爾的頭銜就是 The Ascended。

"The powers that govern life and death are not to be trifled with.
The Shattered Crown is a king’s reward for defying the shadows’ embrace. I
believe we are meant to ponder mortality through poetry and verse, not
enslave it to our will."
掌控生死之力不應被隨意操弄。
「碎裂王冠」是給予拒絕暗影擁抱的君王的獎賞。我相信詩歌是為省思生死，而非隨
我們的意志來操縱它。
※這段和暗影島的故事有關係。根據 LoL Wiki，暗影島會成為如今此般面貌，乃是因為
有一位君王打開了「生死之間的屏障」。又，根據克黎思妲買殞落王者時的台詞：
"Once, he was a noble king, until grief overcame his reason."
這位君王可能是因悲傷壓倒理性才做出這樣的事情。

"There was a time, not long ago, when this constellation was absent from the
night sky.
Some call it the Mountain Shrines or the Great Caretaker. Those of us from
the floating villages know of an older name, a name that speaks of a
universal truth. The name we took for our kind:
Bard"
不久之前，曾有一段時間，這個星座消失在夜空之中。
有些人稱它「山脈神龕」或是「崇高哨衛」。我們這些自漂浮水上的村落來的人則知
道一個更久遠的名字，一個訴說宇宙真相的名字。那就是我們的名字──
──「吟遊詩人」。
