... ENOUGH POWER TO DESTROY ENTIRE CIVILIZATIONS WITH A PASSING GLANCE. AND YOU WISH TO WIELD IT... IN FLORESCENT LIGHTING? 

I KNOW NOT IF YOU ASK THIS DUE TO IGNORANCE, BOREDOM OR IN AN ATTEMPT TO OFFEND ME. 

HOWEVER, I WILL MAKE THIS PERFECTLY CLEAR TO ALL MORTALS WHO READ THIS TEXT WITH THE BONE-CHILLING TONE OF MY VOICE.

I AM DEVOID OF SUCH LIMBS, MORTAL. WHEN I WAS HUMAN, I SUPPOSE I DID. HOWEVER, THE SCORCHING HOT SANDS OF SHURIMA WERE NOT COMFORTING AGAINST THE SOULS OF YOUR FEET. 

BUT IN MY TIME AS A HUMAN MORTAL, I DID NOT WALK UPON THIS GRASS AS YOU DO. 

..YOUR SENTIMENTALITY INTRIGUES ME, WIDOWMAKER. MOST WHO ARE BOLD ENOUGH TO APPROACH ME, SEEM TO FORGET THAT AS A HUMAN I ONCE ADORNED IN SUCH SIMPLE PLEASURES.

Xerath's voice became a dry, rasping hiss. 

WHEN I FIRST ASCENDED, I DID INDEED FIND MYSELF YEARNING FOR THE SENSATION OF TOUCH.  HOWEVER, IN THE EONS THAT FOLLOWED, I NOW REALIZE THAT MY BODY WAS A HINDRANCE. A LIMIT TO BE BROKEN. AS THAT FRAIL FORM PERISHED, I BECAME THE EXAMPLE OF MAGIC'S UNRELENTING POWER. 

The ascendant hesitates for a moment before speaking again. 

OF COURSE. BUT THE MORTALS OF THE INSTITUTE SURELY FEAR WHAT THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND, JUST AS MAGUS FEARED ME WHEN I FIRST ASCENDED. THEY KNOW I SEEK TO BE FREE. BUT IN MY TIME HERE, THEY HAVE NOT OFFERED ME ANY SOLACE AS THEY DID OTHERS SUCH AS MORGANA, KAYLE AND ZILLEAN. THEY DO NOT WISH TO SEE ME BREAK MY BONDS. 

College has been a big stress for me. But after speaking with my parents, i realize i need to focus a great amount more. Mom's been right all along. Its time I buckle down and focus on whats really Important.

I wont be posting here much if at all. I thank you all for being here for me, its been one hell of a ride. I wont be on skype much anymore either. 

To my subscribers, I hope I made things interesting for you, and that reading of my interpretation of Xerath wasn't too much of a bore. 

@Summoner Jolan, I owe you an RP card for placing Second. I'll get around to it eventually.

The magus' body quivers for a moment as he thinks, taking a moment before he speaks.
