Shurima Images

The Shurima images will showcase various regions, architecture, citizens, and creatures. You will visual learn the ancient history of Shurima and its fall. Notice the images of the Sun Discs. The Sun Disc was created with the help of the celestials at Mount Targon and the mages of Ixtal. The Sun Disc allowed Shurimans to infuse a portion of power of the celestials into their most promising warriors, creating demi gods. They became known as, the Ascended. We see examples of Ascended, such as Nasus, Renekton, Xerath, and others. After living too long for mortal minds, they went crazy, waged war against each other and eventually turned into Darkin. Azir has returned to Shurima after the fall of of his Empire to rebuild this civilization once again.
