User:ClayHuang158/Vodasse lore

There is a hunter who roams Runeterra's forests and plains who goes by the name of Vodasse. Skilled in the art of the hunt, Vodasse chases his targets quickly and easily and never gives up, honing his skills for the day he will fight the family he was once a part of.

Vodasse was raised in a wealthy family. His mother was very strict and expected much from him; his father was much more likeable and less stringent. In his education, Vodasse was taught that, to be successful, one must have land to control of territory. However, Vodasse rarely listened to his parents and was more interested in hunting for animals, which was considered quite a sport.

Vodasse was naturally a stubborn child, and would constantly get into arguments with his mother, complaining about the family's stringent ways. One day, however, Vodasse's mother was so angry with him that, amongst complaints from his father, they cast him out, saying that he could only return after he'd learned his lesson. Before leaving, Vodasse stole away a bow from his father's collection and ran off with it.

Vodasse was a quick learner when it came to hunting; he'd always accompanied his father on hunts and watched him shoot a bow. His father had sometimes even given him lessons on how to shoot. This let him survive easily in the wild, and, because of this, he did not return; there was no need to.

Vodasse's mother constantly sent couriers to him to send him messages, usually ones about how he had disgraced the family name. Also as often, Vodasse would send the men running after firing warning shots right at their feet.

On one particular day, Vodasse heard rustling in the branches, and, expecting it to be another courier, he knocked an arrow. However, when he met the new arrival, it was his father.

Vodasse, having been changed by survival in the wild, still kept the arrow ready, just in case it was a trap. Vodasse's father tried to talk to him, to persuade him to return.

"The place isn't the same without you," his father said. "It feels different to hunt without guiding you."

"I can hunt for myself now," Vodasse replied. "You can see because"

Suddenly, three men emerged from the bushes, aiming arrows at him. "You are to return to the manor immediately!" one man shouted at Vodasse.

Vodasse was taken by surprise and accidentally loosed the arrow. The arrow flew true, released from a man who knew how to shoot. However, at this moment, Vodasse wished that he was not so good at shooting.

For the arrow had hit his father.

The three men were shocked to see what had happened. Almost immediately, they shot at Vodasse, who narrowly dodged the arrows. He returned with shots of his own, and, with his skill, slew two of the three men. The third archer fled to tell the news to Vodasse's mother.

Vodasse rushed to his father's side, but the wound had hit the heart. In his dying breath, Vodasse's father told him that he forgave Vodasse, and that he would always love him. "But," he said. "Your mother will not."

Vodasse continues to hunt and chase his enemies, but now he also wishes to improve his skill even further, waiting for the day that he fights his family who now believes him to be a murderer.
