Fury Company was eventually assigned to escort another warband, through the embattled Navori Province. The war dragged, and it became clear that Ionia would not kneel. Not long after, Riven and her warband would sail for Ionia, intended to take part of the long planned Noxus-led occupation.
So strong was her dedication, that it got her noticed by Boram Darkwill, the emperor of Noxus, who bestowed Riven her own massive runic blade, said to be enchanted by a certain pale sorceress in his court. Years of working at the farm made her strong, and in turn, allow her to master the weight of a longsword so much taller and heavier than herself. Alongside her sisters- and brothers- in arms, whose bonds were forged in the heat of battle, a bond she saw as unbreakable, Riven thrived.ĭespite her youth, Riven proved to be a natural soldier. Inspired by warband conscriptors that would frequent Trevale, she would eventually join the Fury Company and pledge her strength to the Noxian Empire. Working a farm wasn't her lifelong goal, however. Her father had been a soldier, slain in battle and her own mother was said to not survived the birth, leaving young Riven to work the farms as an orphan.
Riven was born on a farm in the coastal farming village of Trevale, in Noxus.
