Soon, many people began to believe that she was not only holding Avarossa's weapon, but that she was the reincarnation of Avarosa herself, destined to unite Freeljord again.

But the tale could not feed the bellies of her followers, and the tribe was on the verge of famine during their long journey south.

Ash then used the legend about himself to forge an alliance with the powerful and wealthy southern tribes, promising to unite them into a powerful nation, strong enough to challenge its neighbors.

The new covenant also brought new dangers, and Ash soon found himself at the center of a political struggle. The War Mother, the leader of the Freljord tribe, is supposed to talk about marriage, but choosing a husband from any major tribe will anger the other tribes.

Ash can choose multiple husbands, but that will only bring a boiling conflict into her account, and the ensuing bloody battle will only crumble her hard-earned alliance.

Her answer is a vagabond warrior Taydamir. He had nothing, and his mountain clan was almost wiped out.

He was neither an Beast Walker nor endowed with elemental powers, but since his first day in Ash's new capital, Tydamir had fought in every dueling arena he could find.

He fought in a desperate way, desperate to prove that the survivors of his clan deserved to be accepted by the strongest tribes, even if they were destitute.

But even by Freljord's standards, his brutal tactics and extraordinary physical strength were enough to be unsettling, and many suspected that he was infected with dark magic. Ash doesn't care about this, and she offers to accept his people, but only if he becomes her first and only blood alliance.

Tedamir reluctantly accepted. Although it was a political marriage, they could clearly feel attracted to each other, and a real love gradually developed between them.

When Tedamir came to this world, he only knew the hardships of survival, because the frozen plains where his clan settled never melted.

While they praise all of the old gods of Freljord, and also believe in the Three Sisters Esoteric Religion, the object of their most frequent prayers is a god wreaking havoc on the ice fields, a strong, unkillable Megatooth Beastmaster.

Because of the scarcity of raw materials that could be used to craft armor, the clan used the materials to forge giant blades to emulate their gods' milky hounds.

Today, Ash leads the largest tribal alliance in Freljord's generations. Even so, this hard-won unity and peace is under threat to many:

Internal intrigues, foreign forces, the violent rise of Winterclaw, and a fate that she herself at least pretended to believe

Sejuani is the culmination of a Freljord political marriage, but the beginning and end of the marriage are just as cold. Her mother is the Winterclaw's ice-born warrior Gorgia, who abandoned Sejuani in pursuit of a man who stole her heart years ago, and the tribe has fallen into chaos and decline without the guidance of a young and strong War Mother.

So Sejuani was raised by Hyjan's grandmother. Although Sejuani tried her best to win Shejan's love, she was never able to live up to her grandmother's demands.

As her clan grew in the years that followed, Shejan had less and less time to care for little Serjuani.

Abundance, Love, and Security Sejuani can only see these experiences in others, when she visits Avarosa, the sister tribe of Winterclaws.

Every summer, the region's most famous female warrior, Glenna, brings Sejuani to her tent.

When she learns that Glenna had defeated Gorgia in a duel, Avarosa's mother immediately became her idol, and Glenna's daughter Ash became her only friend.

Glenna questioned that little Sejuani had not been properly raised by her grandmother, and an offended Shejan cut off all contact with the Avarosa tribe.

The Winterclaws later stirred up disputes with other neighboring tribes in an attempt to reclaim the lands and honor they had lost since Gougiya's departure, but their desperate strategy only brought more ruins.

Somehow, these things reached the ears of Kogiya. Hearing that her former tribe was full of bad luck, she went back again to take on the duties of the war mother.

However, after the war was put down, the Winterclaws were given no prey and scarce land, forcing them to rely on the protection of the ruthless Frost Guardian tribe.

Sejuani endured this humiliation and was determined to wrest the leadership from her mother. She made a sacred vow to lead a dangerous raid on the Noxian warship, hoping to fulfill her vow and rally her people to support her in wrestling power from Gorgia and the Frost Priests.

During that ferocious raid, Sejuani released a juvenile Guvask boar from the ship's slaughterhouse and named it "Steelmane" based on its fur.

Little did she know at the time that the beast would become one of the largest Guvasques boar ever seen, and that it would always be Sejuani's faithful mount.

Her raid was a success, and Sejuani decided to challenge her mother for a tribal race. According to ancient customs, a duel between a mother and daughter is unthinkable, but this does not stop Sejuani.

Enraged, the Frost Priests intervened, and Kogia died in the battle, and Sejuani failed to touch her.

As the new Mother of Winter's Claws, Sejuani began to raid and absorb nearby tribes, amassing strength and amassing a diverse community of followers.

Her contempt for the Frost Guardian has also attracted homeless shamans, beast spirit walkers, the Ice Bloodline, and the Storm Bloodline, as well as the old god-worshipping faction across Freljord.

Once weak, laughing, and predatory to the surrounding tribes, it took only a few years for the Claws of Winter's claws to become the most formidable tribe in the North, feared for their swiftness, cruelty, and loyalty to their mothers.

Now, the seasons turn, Sejuani has run over the tribes of the North, the Noxian invaders, and even across the borders of Demacia to raid, plunder, and conquer anyone who resists her.

Eventually, she decides to overthrow and destroy a rapidly growing tribal union, which is forged by her childhood friend, Ash. In Sejuani's opinion, the Avarosa War Mother betrayed not only their friendship, but more importantly, Glenna's legacy.

Thus, Sejuani will prove that she alone is qualified to rule Freljord.

Freljord will be unified, it is the will of Sejuani.
