Another theory is that the Watchers first came to Runeterra through ocean rifts in Ancient time, causing humans to flee to Ionia, tormenting the Marai, etc., It was only decades later, after Avarosa went deaf from fighting the Void War, did Lissandra finally struck a deal of alliance with The Watchers, which culminated to the events of today, which led through one of the bigger ocean void rifts to be sealed in a block of ice, which became the glacial area it is today on the map. Anyway, it's pretty hard to ignore Vel'koz's new lore. Riot sort of slammed an iron hammer, saying the Watchers, the intangible things, were the only things that existed in that vast emptiness. First of all, we don't know that Avarosa went deaf for participating in the Void War, for all we know may aswell gone deaf from making an Iceborn uprising all by herself (or with Serylda), or being influenced herself as it happened to Lissandra.

Second, the icy spot that is unclaimed in the map was stated during the AMA to be either unconquered land by Noxus that Freljord doesn't care about or Kled's territory, also for that story to make sense the Marais wouldn't be needed as they were by the Lunari. Again, as with Serylda before, the Three Sisters were born after the events of the Great Void War, even after the world settled down, Lissandra shouldn't even be an Iceborn.

Third... well yes, either this is a big conspiracy theory of something that came before the Watchers, or Rioters themselves aren't really that in touch with their lore's timeline and did a big mess up here, a thing that the community has been asking for and they don't deliver yet.
