Who they are
Aurelion Sol is a Celestial Dragon who created stars across the cosmos. The Aspects of Targon enslaved him with a magical crown, after tricking him into revealing the secrets of a sun he had made.
His power was funneled into the Sun Disc to strengthen god-warriors who protect Runeterra. He still shapes stardust and celestial bodies, but the golden crown suppresses him, and he seeks freedom and revenge.
Their story belongs to Targon. The tallest peak in Runeterra, and the beings who choose hosts there.
