The Ruined King - Viego quotes

[@jsc1jake512]

Viego lore and TL;DR version below in case you didn't understand the quotes. Also, apologies for being late, I've been a bit busy lately, but glad to see our favorite quote channel is back! :) In a kingdom now forgotten there was a second son to a dynastic king, his name was Viego, the man who would bring about the Ruination. He was never destined to lead, that was what his older brother was for... until he died unexpectedly. Now king to a kingdom he never expected to lead and was a poor leader who didn't much care for his position. One day, Viego came across a poor, young seamstress and was so drawn in by her beauty that he asked her to marry him, she the seamstress, was named Isolde. Viego never cared much for anyone else other than himself until Isolde came along, he showered her with gifts and when the two were in a room together, his attention could rarely break away from her. Viego's allies were furious, they were angered that he couldn't even lead his nation, so they began to plot in secret to end the king's reign, but his enemies... struck first. An assassin's dagger was thrown, it's intent to kill Viego, but his general, Kalista, deflected the dagger and it instead grazed his beloved queen. Viego would stop at nothing to save her, his search for a cure was relentless, desperate and eventually became his downfall, he sent Kalista to find a cure. He locked himself away in his tower with the body of his wife and became terrible and cruel. In this time of weakness, his guard Hecarim, took advantage to get closer to him, he blamed the death of his wife on the outskirts of the kingdom and he massacred them while Kalista searched for the cure in distant lands. When Kalista finally returned, Viego demanded answers, but when she saw the corpse, she knew nothing could be done. She was locked away until Hecarim eventually persuaded her to tell the king of the Blessed Isles. So they sailed, Kalista showed them the way and the king slaughtered a peaceful people until their march took them to the vault, where Viego ordered Kalista to kill the monks that blocked the way, she refused, so she was stabbed through the back with Hecarim's spear, and so they continued until they reached the Waters of Life, where the Chain Warden opened the way, eager to see more suffering unfold in his cruel sadism. He gently gave Isolde to the waters and she returned, only for a moment before she became a twisted wraith, a mockery of her previous form and in her confusion she took the king's heart once again, by running it through with his own blade. The magic of the waters and the enchanted blade clashed, and the shockwave tore across the Isles with relentless force, trapping the land in undeath, driving the land itself into madness, birthing the Black Mist. And what of Viego? he remembers nothing of what happened in the vault, only that he returned. Viego will stop at nothing, even if it means tearing apart the veil between life and death to have his queen returned to him. The Ruination has not ended yet, it has only begun, and in the end all will kneel before the Ruined King in life, and in eternal undeath. *TL;DR:* Viego becomes king after his brother dies unexpectedly. He meets his wife, Isolde and becomes distracted with his duties as king. An assassin's dagger poisons Isolde and drives Viego insane with grief, he sends Kalista on a quest to find a cure for death. She returns and tells him about the Blessed Isles where he slaughters the people of the Isles until he reaches the vault where the Waters of Life were. He gives Isolde to the waters and in her confusion of being torn from death she kills Viego but he doesn't remember that. Viego has returned with his intent to have Isolde returned to him at any cost, even if that cost is the world. fun facts: 1. The forgotten kingdom was named Camavor, I gave it the title "forgotten" because other than the name and that it's where Viego is from, we don't know anything about it, even it's location is a mystery. 2. The "Chain Warden" I mentioned was Thresh, I used that nickname as a literary device. 3. Some on the Isles are not dead, Yorick and Maokai are the only ones who remain alive, even if Yorick refers to himself as "half-dead," he technically is not undead. 4. Isolde's soul is currently split into many different fragments, one of which is within Gwen and one that was taken from Senna, she currently fights against Viego because she knows he's now far from the Viego she once knew.

[@gadrielvanorion9872]

i like how many ppl just are like hecarim and thresh didnt basically use viego as a puppet and then got away from the ruination scott free like it was just him and he also caused the ruination / shadow isles by himself it pisses me off how isolde never finds that shit out hecarim and thresh literally use the mist to fuck around all day long, torturing and slaughtering around the year cuz the mist was always traveling and every now and then it was coming in mass ppl would go the the isles for several reasons and became fodder to them suddenly thresh pretends to be a victim even though he revived viego into the current time and hecarim is forgotten about i guess even though he WAS active during the ruination as seen in his story in demacia. viego also gets pretty much called unfit of love and shit and then they celebrate killing isolde again. its a massive middle finger to all ppl who like the premise aside from that everybody pretends EVEN THE WRITERS, as if viego wanted to destroy the world, or conquer it even though his story is about him not doing that shit, he just wants to be with isolde and at best do nothing else somehow this was just not a plotpoint. also isolde created the mist by stabbing him and nobody gives a fuck about that either im still so incredibly salty

[@cutcutado]

Fun fact, due to twitter posts, we know that camavor is to the east of Ionia and Shadow Isles and that it's as big as Valoran, which means that it's a full fledged continent.

[@Mochila-wl4sb]

yeah, the yorick's maiden, that have a shard of isolde's soul, have quotes of love and admiration for viego "the blade of a great man"

[@spyredlord8314]

i must say that Reqiuem: Lacrimosa by Mozart fits so well, where it plays bc viego starts getting more and more angry and frustated. It just fits too well mate. Well done.

"No price is too great. No atrocity beyond my reach. For Another Nobody, I will do anything." Absolutely wonderful you are back, and I am pleased to hear you are doing better. Delivering as always 💪

Viego is the personifcation of a breakup, and I never thought I'd ever relate to him until I lost my partner because we broke up

THE RETURN OF THE KING Viego is still an edgy little man

[@KENSHIROez3260]

What Viego say at 0:11 is actually a reference to one of Davy Jones iconic line, "love, a dreadful bond and yet, so easily severed" and Viego is likely a combination or hybrid between Darth Vader and Davy Jones plus he even strongly resemble Hayden Christensen, the actor of course known for playing as Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars prequel trilogy especially in the splash art

[@davidwilli5542]

Instead of synonym it either say homage or reference

[@cemates1156]

I thought same things. Strange but true.

[@Swordyplayrebel]

I see Arthas from warcraft, even the sword resembles frostmourne with the four spykes holding the blade and the grip (excuse my poor description), also he seems to not have a heart just like Arthas death knight's self. In the end, like you said, i can see many traits from famous villains mixed together to create this modern interpretation of the dark prince or fallen angel kind of villain wich is cool.

[@jaguarcosmos1583]

I loved that lacrimosa is playing in the background and the VA did such a great job. Both things covey the feeling of Viego. Great video

[@sandowpiano3826]

I don’t care which champ you do next, I love them all, just please don’t give up on your channel. Thanks

[@theimperviousfirecracker7934]

Viego is a tragic Villain done tastefully. He still has credibility in being a villain, in that you don't Sympathize with him enough to wonder why he's being portrayed as evil. What he does is not OK, and he is truly a force that needs to be stopped. And yet... You can understand him. And I don't know how intentional this was, but the way I see it, he never wanted to be a villain; He never wanted to be the ruined king, or to be the guy who spreads darkness across the world, twisting and quite litterally ruining everything and everyone he touches. Hell, before he even became Ruined King, he never wanted to be the king of Camavore, he never wanted to get involved in polotics or anything like that. The reason he is the way he is now is because of his- well, Tragedy. All he ever wanted was love, and in Isolde, he found that. And when she died, all he wanted was to have that back. Even when he stormed the Blessed Isles, I don't think he really wanted to harm anyone, or do anything terrible. But it's human nature to act irrationally when one has had major loss. And when he was ruined, all of his worst aspects became who he was. Still, all he ever wanted was his perfect romance back. I think, in another world, Viego could have moved on and done better. Hell, Viego technically isn't gone in current lore, and I think if he comes back, he could actually have a decent redemtion arc.

[@sayedmohd8169]

Viego voicelines: The curve of her lips, the softness of her smile, it is such a small and fragile thing love No price is too great, no atrocity beyond my reach, for her, i will do anything She waits for me beyond the mist, my queen, my love, my black and broken heart. We were beautiful, once I remeyher sinking beneath the waters, and then, and then No, isolde, i could not see myself in your eyes, why isolde, why do you hide your face from me It hurts, my heart, it hurts so much Isolde is gone, yet i remain, and so it was that love was the gravest sin of all In a world without love, death means nothing I cast myself upon this broken throne, awaiting her return Isolde was my life, she was the star that lit my path, her eyes were portraits of a world without my cruelty, without her, darkness What is a wraith, but the ravenous shadow of a man Viego died when she did, and the ruined ming was born The black mist flows from me like a tide, at times it ebbs, but now, we surge forward A world, that would rob me of beauty is a world that deserves destruction There is no salvation from the dark, for the dark is me The mist is my great, unending sadness I am already a monster, suited for the horrors i must inflict I am inevitable A crown lost long ago, reborn in unlife, ripped away from his only love The world denied my happiness, now, all will die I will take and take until there is nothing left but her Submission or death for all who live, in the end, it matters not, i will see her face again I will rip her from the jaws of death, fate cannot stop me, nothing can My forces scower the world, nothing will escape The dead will not rest until i am whole once more Stand against me, call me villain, hate me if you must, until she returns to my arms, all will be brought to ruin The shadow isles are just the beginning She remains in this world, i can feel it I feel her calling out, viego, save me Answer for your crimes death, answer me Where is she I must have her back tell me where she is You stole her from me, bring her back, return her to me WHERE IS SHE I want precious little, yet im forced to kill for it The ruination cannot end, not yet All shall know my pain All shall sing of all that must be lost, and she who must be found Love is cruel, yet it will conquer What is lost is never lost to me Forward mist, flow from me, consume everything She would want this Take me to her now Do you stand in the way of my love? A mistake I will break your heart, love is my weapon You would stop me? Huha ha haa You face the ruined king Peasant, fall beneath my blade Give me your heart Surrender to me Be one with the mist Be brought to ruin your pain is nothing compared to mine You are not the hero of this tale, you are not anything The weight of this moment is so much more than you, lowborn filth You will serve, serve me in death Why do you fight, no power in this world could stop me Every living thing is my subject, now do as i say, forward Fight puppet, fight for your king, kill them, kill them all Find her, die for her, anything for her This mist has but one cure, and i will find her I will find my love again Camavayah has long crumbled into dust, yet within those ruins our thrones await She will reign again at my side, and i shall be ruined no more Soon this long cruel night will end ah the monk from the waters, and, someone else? Isolde? Isolde, i know it is you, show yourself to me My love My Love All this carnage, do you see? I do it for you Isolde! Isolde, why Ahahh mist get out my lungs, i command you
