The tools to slay a god.

Men fall from the sky.
The gods hurl thunderbolts.
Innocents die.
That's how it starts, the fever.
The rage.
The feeling of powerlessness.
It turns good men,
cruel.

Pantheon.
Raised for bloodshed
Worthy of skyward grandeur
The Chosen God of War.

Shurima.

After descending from the skies and landing atop the soil, the warrior removed the helmet which covered his face and looked at the cloudy, barren battlefield.
He was late yet again, far too late.
The man was once known as Pantheon, now Atreus continues forward. No sign of life was to be seen, only of those that have departed.
"Aatrox." He mumbled in anger. "How much longer till you stop?!"
His voice echoed throughout the battlefield, and he could discern, that he was truly alone here.
Atreus afterward could notice that the clouds have finally given way to the sun.
"Truly, a more fitting time doesn't exist."
Yes, 'was time for prayer.
A requiem for the lost ones.

Piltover.

The secretary approached a basketball court at the AlIndustry lobby. Behind her are two senators of the official Piltover homeland security section, Cardin and Barrows – and in the court in front of them is Alexander, the young, long-haired CEO of the company, playing some Basketball.

Alex hit a three-pointer and turned around to find Sarah and the senators approaching him.
"Sir, your guests have arrived."
"Thank you for bringing them here, Sarah." Said Alexander as he extended his hand to the senators. "Hi, how are you doing?" Asked Alex in a welcoming manner.
"Oh, really great."
"Really Great? Good. Good. Uh, Follow me"

A security door opens, and Alex, now wearing a lab coat over his t-shirt, guides his visitors into the corridor.

"You know, Dad was born in the west of Noxus, near the capital. He grew up eating uh... stale crackers. And every other Saturday, he had to march in a parade and waved flowers at tyrants. So, I think it was providence that his son, me, would end up with this."

The three finally arrived and suddenly a glovebox emerged from the ground, from which emerges a metallic claw holding a small purple mineral.

"One of my cybernetic scouts found this. A little souvenir from the world of the unknown."

"You don't mea-" Asked one of the senators, Mrs. Cardin before Alex interrupted her.
"Yes, I do. A mineral from the Void." Alexander then walked to the back of the glow box so that the senators could see the mineral in its grandeur.

Senator Cardin is staring at the Mineral, while Alex was leaning over the glovebox.
"What's a mineral have to do with homeland security?" Asked Senator Cardin while raising her eyebrow.
"Homeland Security? Mmm. No, no, no... ma'am. Planetary Security."

One of the scientists present, Emmet, begins to explain.
"The fragment is of a radioactive mineral. We suspected it might have bio-interactions, so, we took a couple of tests,

Emmet then proceeds to press a nearby keyboard, the monitor changes to a video of a demon's corpse being removed from its plastic cover.

"T-This is?!" Questioned Senator Cardin.

On a dead demon."

Footage of a dentist drill-like device with the mineral being used to slice the demon's torso was shown.

Emmet continued with. "And, when we exposed the demon to the mineral, this happened.

Both senators were then forced to turn to their backs to see the monitor behind them– footage of black cells splitting up, getting a purple glow, and dissolving.

"Profound biodegradation, decaying Demonic cells." Said Emmet as Alexander took on the lead. "We concluded the mineral could be weaponized if a large enough sample was found. But that is a matter for another day."

Alex slammed the glow box and asked the senators the deciding statement. " What I need from you is an import license."

Senator Barrows decided to meddle in, "And why would we want to weaponize this material?"

"As a deterrent. A silver bullet to keep in reserve to use against the Demons that reside in our little planet. So, the day doesn't come, madam, when your children don't have to face the dangers that are... Darkins and the alike."

"Darkins? Do you mean of the ancient tale?" Asked Barrows.
"Haha, yes, yes. I speak of that *tale*."

"Last I checked, the only one of those roaming around was in Shurima, thousands of years ago."

"Ha-ha, yes. Thousands. Yeah, but, there are... there are more of them, alive, right now." Said Alexander as he was breathing heavily.

"The meta-human thesis." Said Cardin."
"Yes, the meta-human thesis. More likely than not. These exceptional beings live among us. The bases of our myths. Gods among men upon our... our little planet here. You don't have to use the silver bullet. But, if you forge one... Well, then..." Said Alexander as he was approaching closer and closer to the senators.
"We don't have to depend upon the kindness of monsters, do we?"
