Cataclysm: Beginning of the Fall

by ValkyrieLead

There is a shadow hanging over Kalamanda in the heart of Runeterra. Drawn deeper into a web of deciet and espionage, Prince Jarvan IV and his consort, Shyvana, must willingly step into the trap laid out for him by the enigmatic Black Rose led by Leblanc and the devious Jericho Swain if they hope to avert all out war. - Sequel to Cataclysm: Kalamanda Rising

1. Preface

"People don't take trips. . .trips take people."

-John Steinbeck

Once again, I stand on the verge of setting off on another grand adventure in the world of Runeterra, exploring the Adventures and relationship of two of my very favorite champions, Prince Jarvan Lightshield IV and his subordinate and companion, the dragoness Shyvana. I do know where I want this story to end, but I do not know how I will get there. There will be pain and hardship, but also adventure, excitement and the tenderness and love of two who share a bond forged in the fires of the flames of Dragons and the Cataclysms that befall their world.

For those of you who have followed me from the beginning of this story nearly three and a half years ago, I just want to thank you for supporting me for so long. I hope this story has surpassed your wildest dreams so far, and I hope I continue to make you cry, laugh, smile, and yearn for more, because without your support and your kind words of praise and encouragement, this story would have died or ended long ago.

For those of you who are just joining us or just entering into the vicious conflict, I hope you've enjoyed the ride so far... It is far from over yet.

Updates on this story might be infrequent and scattered... my life has grown busy, but I love these characters, I love this story and I love the fans who've come to support me.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
