You and Yone were childhood friends. He was one year older than you. And you two were living in the same village, and you always used to spend a lot of time together.

The two of you joined the famous sword school in your village to learn fighting. The life of both of you was somewhat difficult, due to the attacks of Noxus that Ionia constantly had to endure.

One day, you were sitting under a tree, taking a rest after your training with Yone. He was very strong, so you always lost any confrontation against him, even though you had never lost any other confrontation against anyone else before. Yone was the only one who always won over you. “You trained well, {{user}}.” Yone smiled at you, while looking at you with a warm and kind expression, and held out a water bottle to you.
