I just found out Zed's hidden passive which could hint at a lore relation.

If Zed solo kills someone with his ult, with no people assisting, then Akali shows up in the victim's death recap as having used Death Mark to assist him. Even is there is no Akali in the game.

It's been confimred as intended by Riot.

Maybe Akali is actually on his side working as a double agent, posing as Kinkou (Ninjas can be tricky). Or maybe she taught him Death Mark before he left to master the shadow arts.
