아래에 장난처럼 올린 녹턴과 제드의 진실을 뒷바칠 여러 근거들이 나오고있습니다.






게다가 합성의 퀄리티까지 점점 높아지고있습니다! 정신나갔네요.


부족한 영어실력으로 요약해보겠습니다. 확 와닿는것들만 해볼게요.


녹턴의 배경 스토리중 "목격자들은 건축가가 외마디 비명을 지르더니 이내 숨을 거두었다고 했다. 그리곤 넥서스에서 마법 에너지가 사방으로 퍼져 나가더니, 녹턴이 모습을 드러냈다."

이부분과

제드의 배경 스토리중 "어둠의 닌자는 스승의 뒤를 따라 안으로 들어갔다. 얼마나 시간이 흘렀을까, 기다리고 서 있던 닌자들의 귀에 고통으로 울부짖는 제드의 비명 소리가 들려왔다. 이내 입구로 다시 나온 제드는 놀랍게도 상처 하나 없이 멀쩡한 몸으로 스승의 목을 쉔의 발치에 휙 내던지며, 분노에 이성을 잃은 음성으로 수련생들을 모두 쓸어버리고 상자를 찾아오라고 명령했다."

이부분이 우연의 일치라하기엔 좀 연관성 있어보인다는것


제드의 패시브와 녹턴의 패시브는 비슷하게 생겼다는것

제드의 대사중 "가려진 길이라해도 두려울건 없어" 의 원문은 "Do not fear shrouded path"인데 녹턴의 W스킬인 어둠의 장막(Shroud of Darkness) 과 연관이 있다는것

제드의 "그림자를 받아들여, 어둠속에서 죽던가"(Embrace the shadow, or die in darkness) 
녹턴의 "어둠을 맞이하라"(Embrace the darkness)

그거 말고도 "진실은 바로 어둠속에 있지"(The truth lies in darkness.)도 의미심장하고

제드 "숨통을 끊어주마"(Cut the last breath from them)
녹턴 "이 세계로부터 단절시켜주지"(Cut them from this world)


여러모로 관련이 많아보인다! 가 레딧의 입장이고, 쉔의 아버지를 잃은대해 대한 악몽이 녹턴이다, 녹턴은 그림자 무술의 부작용때문에 그림자(어둠)에 잠식당한 미래의 제드다(이터늄녹턴이 미래스럽죠) 등등 재밌는 반응들이 보입니다.







밑은 원문입니다.

원문은 여기 : EXTRA INFO: "The lore for Nocturne says "Physicians were baffled until a Field Architect happened to pass out next to a nexus on the Twisted Treeline. Witnesses said he cried out once and then stopped breathing. Immediately after, magical energy arced out from the nexus, and Nocturne appeared."

I (BeanBearChag) remember that in Zed's lore, he and Shen's father approached the relic in the temple and those outside heard Zed cry out in pain. Coincidence? Surely not. They must be linked. I apologise if this has already been addressed." Quoted from BeanBearChag and Credits to BeanBearChag





--->0)[Nocturne passive - Umbra Blades] n. pl. um·bras or um·brae (-br ). 1. A dark area, especially the blackest part of a shadow from which all light is cut off. 2.A conical shadow excluding all light from a given source

  • *Take a look at the definition of Umbra from merriem webster. In fact, all dictionary definitions refer to the shadow.
  • [NEW-Curious Clue In Zed Splash Art: http://imgur.com/WnvCoGv]

--->I) "Cut the last breath from them" - Zed "Cut them from this world" - Nocturne

  • Zed pursued the shadow arts, despite the heeding of Shen's father. In one of his voice clips, Zed says "What I have done, cannot be undone" possibly suggesting that the effects of succumbing to the darkness is not only irreversible, but also progresses over time, hence the escalation in the severity of his tone as he became more corrupted.

--->II) "Brave the shadows, find the truth/Do not fear the SHROUDED PATH/The shadows have enlightened me/The truth lies in darkness" - Zed

  • Ionia is a nod to East Asia, and there are countless references to the balance of light and darkness (yin and yang) within the Kinkou (the order where Shen, Akali, Zed etc. are from). Zed, a rebellious disciple had decided to devote himself to the shadow arts, slowly becomes consumed by the "shrouded path", an echo of Nocturne's W ability "Shroud of darkness".

--->III) "Embrace the shadow, or die in darkness..." - Zed "Fulfill destiny/No recourse for survival" - Eternum Nocturne

  • Pay attention to the voice clips and you will realize how many times Zed has used the word "Truth". What truth is he referring to? My theory of why Zed headed down the unforgiving path to become the nocturne was probably because he realized that there is actually no turning back from the order of the shadow after you have given in to it. When resistance proved to be fatal, Zed had no choice but to "Embrace the shadow".

--->IV) "Cross over.../THIS PLACE disgusts me" - Nocturne "We transcend time/The FIRST are we, the LAST are we/Things of THIS PLACE are no threat/We are one" - Eternum Nocturne

  • This could suggest that Nocturne and Eternum Nocturne are creatures that have crossed boundries of time and have entered Zed's time from another dimension. The reason why Eternum nocturne keeps referring to himself as "We", and the current time as "This place", It is possible that eternum nocturne is simply an even more corrupted version of the current nocturne, befitting of the term "in aeternum".

--->V) "Failure is your destiny" - Eternum Nocturne "Help is not coming..." - Nocturne

  • One of the biggest things we overlooked is that we were assuming that nocturne and eternum nocturne were talking to other champions and the summoner, however some of the dialogue makes more sense when they are assumed to be directed to the current time Zed. Perhaps Eternum nocturne and nocturne have come to taunt Zed with the "destiny" of him ultimately falling to the grip of the shadow, which would explain alot of their lines heeding Zed "not to fear" the coming darkness. shoutout to MaDNiaC for pointing this out :3

--->VI) An interesting point by MelanieDorijan + PersonaN0NGrata paraphrased... "There was a theory on Zed's shadow "overcoming" Zed in some way; He always tries to beat his shadow in jokes/taunts - if he doesn't, he kills the shadow anyway. In his death animation, he is weakened and becomes subjugated by the shadow force, eventually narrowly escaping certain death with a portal. At some point in the future, maybe the shadow finally does overpower him and that's where Nocturne comes from."

Thanks for reading summoners <3 hope it wasn't too long :3 Feel free to verify these quotes on YouTube. :)

  • TL;DR Nocturne is possibly Zed's future self consumed by the abuse of shadow arts. Zed's grasp on reality grows weaker as the shroud of darkness corrupt his senses.







실제로 좀 억측이 있긴 하다만 진짜로 이렇다면 정말 재밌겠네요. 레딧이 이 논쟁으로 핫해졌는데 과연 라이엇은 이걸 참고하고 스토리를 짤지 ㅋㅋ.
