Everyday i think about how sad Mel’s story is and shed a tear.

When we first meet Mel in Arcane its already kinda like :( because she’s been cast out of the medarda family; but her ending somehow turns out even worse as:

-her best friend was killed right before very eyes.

-she was trapped with a fake version of her brother which she has to destroy with her bare hands. this undoubtedly forces her to accept his death for a second brutal time.

-she finds out shes not fully noxian and is then forced to kill her own mother in like the span of a week.

- she came back from being kidnapped to be yelled at by her bum ex who didnt even have the decency to consider her circumstances. Said ex downplays his own agency, blames her for saving him, and then delivers a half-assed apology.

-at the end of everything, she returns to noxus WITH NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS LEFT, and is forced to take up the mantle of being head of the Medarda family. this is like the one thing she tried so hard to avoid.

Mel is a fascinating character.

We are introduced to her like she’s some sort of scheming master manipulator. But as the series progresses we slowly start to learn she’s not as in control as we thought she was. Things start to move too fast for her to keep up with and spirals out of control.

Then we learn about her lineage. About her mother. And the lofty standards placed upon her. And suddenly we realize that she’s been trying to live up to these standards in her own way. She was never a killer like her mother, but she still wants to be great and respected.

Then her mother actually shows up and throws a wrench into all her plans and everything starts falling apart. And she’s trying desperately to keep things together and figure out non-violent ways to keep the peace between the cities.

And then when things look the worst… she learns that she wasn’t even pure Noxian. That she’s the illegitimate child of her mother. That her birth was a calculated move to provide her mother with magical powers should the Black Rose ever come for her. She’s nothing more than another weapon for her mother to use against her enemies.

All that lineage, all of those standards she’s been trying to live up to… none of it was ever going to matter. She’s not just not a Noxian soldier, she’s also magical. A being with the arcane magic inside her all along.

She is essentially the embodiment of the magic she was chasing in Piltover this whole time. She never needed hextech to put Piltover on the map. She never needed to live up to Noxian beliefs and standards.

Mel grew up thinking she needed to conform to her mother’s wishes and ambitions and ends the series realizing her own self worth and power.
