Chapter 7: Reviving the tales of the past, readying for the present

Rosark was in Ionia, Zed and Syndra had decided to make him company while someone came to pick him up, that one being Udyr, they had decided it was a good idea to send the message to the summoner closest friend considering they heard things seemed to be better.

They heard the sound of rustling in the woods and in the path appeared Udyr, his hands glowing blue while the same glow was on his eyes. He looked at Zed and Syndra, lastly he noticed Rosark sitting on the floor and approached now in calm. He looked at the obvious tired summoner and helped him stand.

Zed and Syndra said no word at Udyr, they knew there was nothing to say as he was focused on helping Rosark, they still decided they could at least thank him –"Thanks for coming to pick him up." Udyr just grunted, Syndra smiled knowing that was his way of thanking them for calling him and not anyone else to help.

While helping him standing Zed and Syndra just left back to the flying fortress, Udyr looked at Rosark, it had been long since he ever saw him tired –"Who did this to you?" He just sighed –"Orianna, not sure why, but she came to get me" While they started walking through the road he got able to stand on his own and walked near Udyr, both just enjoyed the silence and calm around.

Ionia was a paradise to enjoy walks like that, while on the walk Udyr seemed to cough to attract his attention.

–"So… Are you and Karma thinking of getting back?" Rosark looked at his friend surprised of the question, mainly because he thought that if Udyr had asked, it meant their friendship was back on place, otherwise Udyr would have never asked about something personal. But that question left him pondering.

Were he and Karma going back? Truth be told, things had ended up mainly because work, he was a summoner, she an spiritual leader, member of the council of Ionia and an important figure in all Ionia thanks to that, how would people react to their relation?

Back then Rosark would pass days in Ionia, visiting Karma and walking in her private garden on her house, he would often walk together and left himself fall on the ground, of course she would reprimand him telling him to sit properly not to let himself fall like a rock on the ground…good times, back when both would pass time together.

–"I don't know…I wouldn't mind going back with Karma, but I wonder if she would be okay Udyr, last time it was her who decided it was for the best that we would be on our own, she didn't wanted to make her people question what was happening…is her life, she should decide what she wants, but it doesn't suit Karma to be selfish… she always has to be selfless."

–"Isn't that the reason you love her?" Udyr smiled the smile of knowing him totally and understanding his thoughts, Rosark could only think that sometimes he forgot that Udyr was a good friend; he always had an answer to him, even if he wished not for him to know he had something to say.

–"Yeah… but that would be Karma decision in the end my friend…"

As he finished he looked at the sky and memories came back to him…

Back then he had come to Ionia just to chat with Udyr for a plan to make use of his tiger stance to defeat monsters in the jungle faster, while speaking that day he saw her, the beauty captured his attention, but the character of Karma ended up catching his heart. He had felt in love with the Enlightened One.

Back then Udyr had told him Karma wasn't one to speak with anyone outside of matters from meditation or the council of Ionia, the Enlightened one had little time to strangers or people who were outside of the council of Ionia, of course she was friends with some champions, but he decided he would try to speak with her.

He stayed in Ionia for days, more than planned and he tried to speak with Karma at any chance he had at seeing her, luck wasn't his friend, at any time he tried to speak with the Enlightened one she would kindly deny and tell him that she was busy with matters of the council, or simply explaining she was busy with other matters.

Summoners can be quite the stubborn people, and if someone was stubborn was him, he wasn't leaving Ionia until he had the chance of chatting with Karma, needless to say being stubborn doesn't mean success, and it just means he wasn't going to give up easily. Days passed, and one month passed with him in Ionia, he had only left few times to have a match on the league and come back immediately.

Karma noticed that he wasn't going to leave, but that didn't mean she was going to chat with him, the Enlightened One might be kind, but she didn't liked that summoners often came to Ionia to make deals regarding issues of the League which weren't of her interest. Still she had come to learn his name at least; one would end up learning the name of someone who always asked if they could chat.

This routine of trying and failing kept up for two months, neither side was accepting defeat in their position, Karma was busy, and Rosark was always trying to chat. This would keep up till the chance they would actually have a conversation. And that was when he gave up…

He had come to admit that Karma wasn't interested in having a conversation, in two months he had been all around Ionia except on some places, so he decided if he was going to leave, might as well visit the meditation garden before leaving. He made his way through the garden and saw Lee sin, Udyr, master Yi meditating, and Wukong making his best to try to keep himself in composure and not moving around.

Quite the show to see the champion in their meditation, he took a moment to absorb the beauty and peaceful silence of the garden, no doubt why the place was the garden of meditation. He let himself fall on the floor, not a care in the world, things were going well, maybe the Enlightened One didn't liked the idea of a conversation with him, but he would live…

He enjoyed the sensation of being just there on the floor, eyes closed, arms and leg stretched as if trying to reclaim the little piece of terrain as his, as he breathed and enjoyed being on the floor he could hear a voice he had been hearing all the time while in Ionia, though this time instead of the usual "I'm busy" he heard her lightly clearing her throat to catch his attention.

–"Hello Enlightened" Rosark smiled not a care in the world; his eyes still closed enjoying the garden. He heard her sighing before speaking. –" Hello summoner I was hoping to." He interrupted her while speaking. –"Rosark" Karma showed surprise at the rude interruption –"My name is Rosark, no need to call me summoner Enlightened One." Karma frowned at the rude interruption and spoke her thoughts that she couldn't hold this time –"Enlightened this, Enlightened one that, my name is Karma"

Yi, Wukong, Lee, and Udyr had all been seeing this scene in development, well almost all, Lee had been hearing it, they tried to fake they were still meditating, but right now the scene in front of them was more entertaining than the look for inner peace of mind, Wukong was the more thankful at this as he couldn't keep himself trying to meditate.

Rosark chuckled at this little outburst. –"Well, thanks Karma, is the first time you have told me something different." He couldn't hide his smile, he was truly happy that Karma spoke something different from being the usual calm Enlightened one. –"Well…Rosark, thank you… I guess, but I would prefer if you were as kind as to sit properly, this garden is for meditation, not for lazing in it."

Rosark grunted a bit while sitting in position, not before answering Karma –"On it boss." Wukong muffled the huge laugh he was about to let out, as a result he got a scolding look from Yi, no one had never acted like that with Lady Karma. Karma herself was surprised at the lack of seriousness from Rosark.

"What's wrong with this summoner? Why he acts like this so… improper, like a child" Her thoughts were interrupted at the sound of Rosark chuckle –"Well I'm sitting properly, but what do you say if we pass this conversation to that bench near?" While signaling the bench Karma could only nod and walk. Rosark stood and walked, seeing the faces of all the champions.

Yi was looking expectant to understand what was happening, Wukong was expectant to see another reckless comment of the summoner, Lee seemed to focus in hearing something, and Udyr was just making signals for him to run soon. Udyr thoughts were rushing "Run! If you make Karma feel uncomfortable he will end up coming…"

"Don't worry my friend I don't need to run" Rosark made a thumbs up signal to Udyr; he just sighed thinking sometimes he would like Rosark to hear his thoughts outside of matches… He looked at the top of buildings near the garden; in position was Shen, the eye of twilight. The body guard of Karma in a way.

Lee slightly tapped Udyr arm, before whispering to him. –"Don't worry… he is not planning to go for him, I'm sure you saw him, but don't worry, he is just keeping an eye." Udyr sighed. –"Knowing Rosark he will screw up, he has a talent for bad luck…"

As he was sitting in the bench he left his legs open on it contrary to Karma who tried to take the less space possible –"What are you doing?" Rosark chuckled –"Come on, no one uses the benches, I'm wondering why they place them here anyway." Everyone that was hearing them expected her to snap, Shen was ready to move at any signal, Udyr was readying himself to stop Shen to keep his friend safe.

But what happened was something no one expected… she laughed, Karma started to laugh, her laugh was cute while sounding almost musical, Shen relaxed, everyone relaxed at this sight, and no one remembered hearing Karma laugh like that. –"You are right; no one really uses them in the garden, they just meditate, sometimes I wonder why we placed them." Rosark stayed silent nodding before admitting something –"That's better you know, you should laugh more often"

A smile from the summoner was enough for Karma to understand the fact it wasn't he was a weird summoner, he was just weird, he truly was hoping to chat with her, on this moment is where a relation of friendship was born, sadly even though they wished for more it wasn't possible…

The memory faded as Rosark watched Udyr sighing –"I think you should try it… she seems glad of you coming back to Ionia, I will not pressure you though." Rosark smiled at his friend –"You are one huge softie did you know that?" His laugh was put to stop while receiving a punch to the arm, not enough to hurt but still enough to cause pain. –"And you need to get ready, you still need to do some more matches on the league."

Rosark smiled, he exactly knew who he would ask for help for a match as soon as possible. –"Don't worry, I think I just know what to do"

Back in the institute Rosark made contact with someone from Piltover –"Hey, is me, yeah I know, think you could give me a hand? Tomorrow we will have the match, think you can make it? Thanks, yeah you will have liberty to act, see you tomorrow."

Rosark smiled, tomorrow match would be a good one to make everyone see he was still on the game.

Rosark has gotten back on the road! Who did he contacted for help on the match, we know a bit of the past of him and Karma, will Wukong be able to meditate one day? Who knows, soon we will be ready for the next match!

Thanks for those who keep up with me, see you next chapter: "Roar of battle! Still on the game!"
