" The Generals Darius And Swain , " Taliyah Responded Quickly . Two Of The Most Feared Men In Runeterra
" The generals Darius and Swain , " Taliyah responded quickly . Two of the most feared men in Runeterra . . . Two of the three leaders of Noxus .
Taliyah's face showed no sign of a lie . Blunt was the best she could be sometimes . . . However , her serious expression quickly turned to shock then embarrassment at the realization of how it was phrased .
" W-What I mean is , General Darius refuses to fight me until I am able to bend this one stone . Apparently Demacia is famous for it — not that I like Noxus . " Taliyah was quick to explain what she had meant . Going around Demacia saying the two generals of Noxus sent you is basically a suicide mission !
" He ruined my life , so I wish to show him how . . . Displeased I am . However long that will take . " Once again , the mage grew nervous . Taliyah looked away from Garen , quite displeased with herself , before noticing how busy the street started to get . People of all ages , rushing to who knows where .
" You . . . Said you used to guard the prince ? At least one of my guesses were right . " Taliyah refused to look back up at the other . Those shackles might just go right back on her wrists . . . At that thought , she started to rub her injury once more .
heart-ofstones
Taliyah was always a fan of tall people . Big , strong , able to kill her … The fear was always replaced by curiosity . Even after meeting Sett , a 7′8 beast , she was interested . And Garen definitely got on her good side .
When he had grabbed her small , cold hands , she knew what he could do . He could easily break her fragile bones , yet he did something better . He crushed the binds .
Taliyah let out a surprised gasp when he had . No matter how hard the shuriman had struggled , they refused to move to a better position , yet Garen … He just …
The short woman stared up at him , eyes wide with shock and excitement . “ Thank you , sire ! That - how did you - hm … “ A soldier perhaps ? Maybe a guard for the royal or royal himself . Probably why he’s referred to as Sire . And that build …
“ If you don’t mind me asking , do you fight with your fists or a sword ? Strength like that means you fight , no doubt . You look too young to be the general , but if … No … “ Taliyah rambled . If one couldn’t tell , she enjoys guessing and speaking . People in general was something she’s good at . Maybe that’s why Swain had spoken to her .
Taliyah gently rubbed her wrists as she thought . They were red , probably redder than her cheeks whenever complimented . The stone felt rough … Was it supposed to eventually dig into her skin and cause blood ? Maybe she should’ve heeded the warnings …
Wait , did Garen say something ? Taliyah looked back up at him , smiling widely . “ Please , call me Taliyah ! Or Tali ! “
For a moment, he simply looked at her, perhaps she was thinking? She was not quite doing anything, but he didn’t really expect her to. For a moment, he pondered if she would simply run off in terror due to that, or now that she is no longer being held captive, would not wish to push her luck with remaining with the Crownguard himself. But he was patient, and a small smile rested upon his lips.
After all… Few could do that. What he did was, effectively, crush stone. While petricite was not quite simple, as it was often poorly crafted when it was smaller items, they were sturdy enough that it took a decent amount of force, such as a hard strike of a hammer, to break it. He simply knew his limits and his capabilities… And he pushed them very, very precisely.
“I fight with a claymore most of the time, but I am capable of hand-to-hand combat if my weapon is not available.” He explain briefly–It was not exactly classified information, so there was no reason to withhold it. Even the people of Demacia would speak of him and his capabilities, while most of the time they exaggerated rather severely, it did not mean some of the gossip held at least a nugget of truth to it.
“And, well, you’d be incorrect. My initial duty was to protect Jarvan Lightshield the Fourth as his personal guardian and protector, but as things have… Changed, I no longer reserve my talents simply for my Prince, but for military combat and many other warfare needs. It certainly made me a more… Ideal candidate due to my family’s ties to the Lightshields. First General Garen Crownguard, at your service.” He offered a small, polite bow towards her.
“Taliyah, then…? You may call me Garen, then.” He cleared his throat, trying to lighten the mood–if she was not stressed, there would be no reason for her trailing sentences, right? “Why would a Shuriman woman such as yourself visit Demacia?”

Continuation from x ♤ @shattcrcdtimc
Taliyah couldn't help herself , reddish orange eyes glancing at Ekko . Her large smile never once faltered .
" Doesn't that tree look suspicious to you ? " Her ginormous paw pointed at a nearby tree . " Come on - ! Let's investigate ! "
Taliyah can't handle flirting
Even just complimenting her will make the girl turn red. Flirts will make her giggle and stutter while trying to change the topic, especially if it's the first flirt coming from the person's mouth. Yet again, just giving her food will make her blush heavily.. candy especially. Biggest sweet tooth in the world
Odyssey RP Server
Hiya!! It's me, Lexie, with yet another ooc post! Last night I finally set up a discord server. My first one, in fact!
I hope I'm not asking for too much when I promote this. I just don't want my first serious server to flop, you feel? But! I understand if you don't want to join. OCs and custom Odyssey skins are absolutely welcomed! There are a couple strict rules, such as no drama between muns in server, but I'd like to think it's pretty flexible.
I hope I see you beautiful beans there! I love you~! ♡
Anon asked ☆ What's your favorite rock?
" Oh God , does it have to be just ONE ? " A stone mage . Taliyah loved most rocks , because why was she supposed to hate them ? They looked gorgeous , they obeyed her commands , and they're always there for her . Rocks were like — her best friend !
Is that weird ? It's starting to sound weird .
The young woman put a finger to her lip in thought . " My favorite to look at . . . Would either be a fire opal , bismuth , or a rose quartz geode . My favorite to fight with is definitely any rock that would cause pain . I'm not picky ! "
"Why the hell does Kitai's cake taste like soap??"
" It does ? Maybe it's because of that one weird liquid I found . . . "
I think it's time I explain one of my favorite AUs to you guys. @iixesha and I created it back in January, when I was just spit balling ideas and this one was picked.
There will be triggering content ahead, such as: death, murder, depression, abuse, drug use and trade, kidnapping, Stockholm syndrome, and manipulation.
If this is something you NEVER want to see mentioned, please block the tag “#𝔻𝕣𝕦𝕘𝕤 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕜𝕚𝕤𝕤𝕖𝕤|☆ The Forsaken”. This is a mob au.
Design by me, but the beautiful artwork and colors are by Dekko ! They were a huge help, and I can’t thank you enough for letting me use this in the post!
This was originally just for ONE rp, though it expanded and a whole universe was created. Since this is simply my Taliyah account, only The Forsaken are mentioned, but there are bunches of others! That, however, will be explained later on.
Taliyah was still a Shuriman girl in the beginning, when they had first met. A young sixteen year old with loads of energy and a heart to protect everyone good. While traveling the desert sands, she had ran into a boy her age, scarred and dangerous looking. Approaching him could’ve meant certain death, but he had weapons. Weapons, and packs of drugs he was supposed to be running for his gang back in Zaun. Of course, Taliyah felt the need to stop him, but was quickly defeated. Instead of killing the broken girl, Ekko had another plan. He plucked her off the ground, and brought her with him.
Taliyah fought against this. After all, he was a monster! Ekko was extremely displeased, and scars began to form on her own body. At one point, she had been shot in the arm. Every time she tried to run away, to be free once more, to see her mother’s face... The punishment for when he caught her got worse. Eventually, she learned to let him have his way, yet the snappy remarks didn’t disappear for quite some time.
During this time, running with and away from Ekko, she began to grow attached. She thought of him as some sort of twisted protector, sent by the celestials to tell her what was to happen to her. That was another reason she didn’t try to run away after a certain amount of time.
Being brought back to the gang was harsh. So many people, almost all as greedy as Ekko. Taliyah was forced to stay, to which she obeyed with little backlash. The shuriman stuck to Ekko’s side, learning from him, being protected from him, only speaking to him. Everyone else, though just as trashy, thought of Taliyah as nothing else as some pre-mature toy.
After a couple years, three or so, she was awakened by a loud BAM! While gun shots were common, none was that close. After another, she rushed down the hall. There, standing in a door way, was Ekko. Gun in hand, splattered with blood, face emotionless. The gang leader was killed. While some fought Ekko about this, they promptly joined their ex leader in hell. Without much arguments from those who got the message, Ekko took over the position. He took Taliyah’s hand with a blood covered ring, and scared to refuse, they were married soon after.
Taliyah learned the reason of the marriage after their first meeting, as well as got told about all the others. The gangs- or mobs, as she was corrected- that ran territories all over Runeterra. Each had a different purpose, The Forsaken’s rival being The Damnation. Ran by Sett And Xayah(can’t decide if I want it to be as a brother/sister rule or a married couple with a Rakan helplessly pinning after Xayah with no avail). Taliyah was a show of wealth. During meetings, she was dressed in revealing clothes made of gold and garnets. Xayah in a dark purple ionian silk dress with diamonds and golden thread.
Taliyah was treated as nothing else than a toy. Something useless. Even after they had two children, a blind boy and a beautiful little girl, nothing changed. Screams, violence, and tears. Even though she’s in her late twenties, Taliyah feels like a helpless child. Drowning. Unable to get out. How could she? The only answer would be death.
I’m tired, so I apologize for anything that may be hard to read! feel free to yell at me in dm for more information if you’re interested!
