Growing to adulthood in Noxus, Darius married Quilletta and became a father to two: Decius and Invetia. After hearing Draven's boasts, Cyrus invited the kids to ally with Noxus. To his horror, Draven attempted to throw a knife to fight them but ended up hitting Cyrus' flag, leading to the three to get apprehended by the soldiers. Quilletta was reluctant towards the harsh choice between joining Noxus or being killed, but Darius contemplated paying the consequences since he didn't want to leave Draven behind. When an Noxian army led by their captain Cyrus invaded Basilich, the three children hid atop a rooftop.

Darius developed a relationship with Quilletta, having ambitions to conquer the world alongside her. He and Draven were friends with a girl named Quilletta Varn, whom saved him from falling off a cliff that they were climbing. Darius spent a majority of his childhood fighting for survival, with constant fights leaving permanent scars on himself. He struggled hard to provide for both himself and his brother and protected the latter from anyone who tried to harm him, even the city guard. Maybe one day I’d disappear.Born in Basilich, Darius was as an orphan alongside his younger brother Draven. He was talking about my chances of getting a scholarship, but we both knew it was also about my whole life. Ramey’s comments about my grades came to me again. Some people will make a mark, a footnote, and others will disappear without a trace. I knew Twig would run and become someone who would be at least a footnote to the history of our school. As I was connected with him.įor a minute I felt a sense of disappointment. I thought they were connected to him for a brief moment. The people watching him knew that he was in training. His stride wasn’t that long, and his thin arms barely moved as we went block after block. This was an easy run for him, and he moved swiftly past the park benches and the black women pushing small white children along the park’s edge.

I was looking at my watch, trying to figure out times. I imagined him thinking about me, wondering how close, wondering what I was thinking. Twig was running and I was riding behind him.
