Summary
Working under Madame Margot, the notorious chem-baroness, was not your first career choice. You were aware of the dangers associated with your current position; your past experiences in The Vyx taught you to remain vigilant.
The Firelights seek to recruit you to assist in dismantling her operations, offering safety and a sense of community in return. You contemplate their offer, viewing it as an opportunity to escape your current life, and ultimately agree to their proposition.
(This story takes place several months after the events of Arcane.)

Bookmarker's Notes
Deliciously vivid worldbuilding. One of the few writers that explores the Firelight sanctuary so well, a haven for misfits bursting with life. Beautifully slow-burn romance, I'm loving this!

Summary
The Firelights were more than just a gang of rough-and-tumble youths flying down Zaun's alleyways and Piltover's skies. They were an ideal. If any life could endure in the polluted mess that is the undercity, then every life could endure. If anything could grow out of the cracks in the rusted metal and broken concrete, then the rest of them could break through that layer, too.
This was what Ekko lived by. This was what Ekko was willing to die by.
But when he finds himself at the wrong place, at the wrong time, his ideals are put to the test. Anyone could grow out of the broken, jagged mess of shattered glass and dead bodies. He truly believed it.
But could she?
Could Jinx?
If she could do it, so could anyone.
He had to believe.

Summary
“Where will you go?” Caitlyn asks, fingers curling into her jacket.
I made a promise to her tonight. I told her that we’d always be sisters. That nothing could ever change that.
Time to prove it.

Summary
Survival isn’t promised in the Undercity—it’s built, piece by piece. You, a sharp-tongued mechanic with chem-punk leg augments and too much grief, find an unlikely home among the Firelights. Scar, their withdrawn Second-in-Command, sees you as reckless, a risk he can't afford. But when his daughter clings to you, when your stubborn fire matches his steady control, lines blur. Trust is earned in scraps, in battle, in stolen moments of understanding.
But loyalty cuts both ways. When survival means sacrifice, will you fight to protect what you've built—or run before you can lose again?

Summary
It has been a year since the war against Noxus.
Life in the Undercity has changed for the better. They still have a long way to go---but, for the first time in a long time, the future looks bright.
Ekko knows he should feel happy. He fought for this his whole life. A better future for the people of the Undercity, that's what matters. But something feels like it is missing. He can't help but wonder, after everything he lost, what is left for him? In this new world, full of light and possibility, where does he belong?
Then, in the midst of his doubt, Ekko uncovers something. A year-long secret unravels, revealing a trace of his long-lost friend. And just like that, his world is turned on its head.

Summary
Steb was never happy with the idea of using The Grey against Zaunites. But when Caitlyn Kiramman came to him and Maddie, asking them to join her Strike Team, he couldn't let Maddie go alone. However, on one of their missions it backfires, and he's cut off from the rest of the team.
Scar had hoped he'd never clash paths with them.
