Introduction
Leblanc leaned heavily upon her staff as she wandered the underground passageways of the Black Rose. The secret organization had held control over the Noxian government long before the city-state's dark period of militarization. Its Matron had guided the Rose through much of it's existance, though after nearly one hundred and fifty years she was finally beginning to show her age. Despite using magic to put off the enevitable, she had known this time was comming but until now she had never put much thought into her plan. LeBlanc was dying, and it was time to appoint a new Matron to the Black Rose.
Her wanderings through the catacombs led her back to her home beneath the granate mountain upon which Noxus was constructed. She prepared herself a pot of tea while she thought about who she would choose to be her heir. She had no children, nor a lover to whom she could leave her fortune and legacy. Immediately a young apprentace named Evaine came to mind. She was the same age LeBlanc had been when she bacame the Matron. Evaine ws also one of the most loyal people she had ever met. It was then, while drinking her afternoon tea, that she decided to whom she would give the ultimate honor in the Rose.
Once she finished her tea she summoned Evaine to her chambers to tell her of her spontaneous promotion.
