After getting accepted into the League of Legends, the Gravedigger had requested an area where he would be allowed to continue on his quota when he was forced to be at the institute grounds instead of the Shadow Isles. Especially now after his recent acceptance into the League he was asked to stick around for a while.
He was a bit annoyed for that, but the temporary dig site he had received was good enough for him to keep himself busy. It hadn't taken long before he had been visited by some summoners asking him questions about him and the Shadow Isles. He had been tempted to kill them but instead he answered the questions rather quickly and they left.
He sighed when they left, the ghouls that had been hiding during the visit from the summoners reappeared. They flew out slowly to the Gravedigger, hovering around him. He sighed yet again and dismissed the ghouls. Watching as their bodies decomposed and became dirt.
He began to dig a grave, not that he had a body to fill it with, just to occupy himself whilst he waited until he was allowed to return to the Shadow Isles.

Heading down to learn about the new champion to have joined the league. Keeping her pace as she walked through the halls until she made it to the grounds of they were keeping this, Yorick. Jeniah tried to be as well informed on every champion. Wanting to know who she could trust later on. Though as a junior summoner she couldn't do much yet within the institute.
On her way down she kept passing by other summoners that had probably gone to visit this new champion. She has heard a lot about him, though many of these things she would have to confirm herself. Each time she passed by a pair of summoners she heard something a bit new. Soon though she arrived to find The Gravedigger out in his dig site.
Approaching him slowly she remained cautious of him until she was close enough to speak to him. "I uh...... hello, nice to meet you. I'm Jeniah a Junior summoner." She said holding her hand out to greet herself.
The sounds of Jeniah's foot steps had reached the Gravedigger before she began to speak to him. The dig site usually was quiet except for the sound of digging and the occasional foot step and mumble as he had been digging a few graves that had been filled with nothing but dirt. At first he thought the foot steps belonged to someone that would just look at him then run away.
But her voice surprised him slightly, that she, alone, actually dared speak to him. Usually a quick glance on him would make most either shut up or leave directly. He turned around and looked at the summoner junior summoner before him. This one, this one was different. Burying a part of blade of the shovel in the dirt next to him he looked at her hand before slowly reaching out to shake it. "Greetings, Jeniah." He said and slowly shaking her hand, "I'm guessing you already know who I am, otherwise you wouldn't be talking to me." he said and pulled back his hand once the shake was done, placing it on the shovel's grip.

Giving the gravedigger a firm handshake as to not show any kind of disrespect. After pulling her hand away slowly she moves her hands towards the pad and paper she was carrying along. As she started marking down a few things. The sound of paper being scratched and marked as Jeniah was slowly filling out in big letters the champion's name.
After that was done she looked around realizing all the freshly dug dirty everywhere. For a brief moment she looks from the spots if grass that had been disturbed by most likely Yorick. "So if you don't mind I was hoping to ask you a few questions.... first one would be why you dug up all these.... well holes. If you don't mind me asking."

As news spread about another undead among the champions the small mummy out of his own curiosity wanted to be more familiar with other undead like like himself. However he wasn't told where this Gravedigger would be. Passing from one end of the institute to the other. Till finally he spotted him talking with a Summoner.
Hesitant at first as he took minutes to gain his first step the small mummy approached the two. Determined to make a new friend if at all possible. Making his way to the two it seemed as though he went unnoticed as the summoner and the gravedigger were exchanging a greeting.
Reaching out to both of them he tugs at their cloths to get their attention. "Hello..... I was wondering if.... well Yorick would be my friend?" He said wiping a few tears away.
The gravedigger looked at the junior summoner as she scribbled down some notes, probably about him. He didn't mind it, he had been asked a lot of things during the short time he had been there. His eyes looked at her closely as she began to look over the dig site, "Ah yes, the graves... I am a gravedigger for the my king. This keeps me occupied when I have nothing to do, keeps my mind from wandering too much." He looked over the small field he had been allowed to dig on, the once beautiful field was now covered with dark spots large enough to fit even the tallest man when laying down and about six feet deep, but to his disappointment they were only filled with dirt.
Meanwhile a ghoul off his began circling around the two, spotting his second guest of the day. The ghoul hurried back to Yorick as the Mummy walked closer to the champion and the summoner. Pulling in his arm in the direction of Amumu. The voice of the mummy caught Yorick's attention more than the tugging in his arm by the ghoul. He looked down on the mummy, so did the ghoul who then flew rapidly towards the mummy with it's hands extended.
Yorick pulled out the shovel from the ground and hit the ghoul hard over the head a few feet away from Amumu,"DID I TELL YOU TO ATTACK?" he shouted at the now dead ghoul under his shovel. Looking at the small mummy in front of him he buried the tip of the blade in the ground and sighed, "Excuse my ghouls, they aren't the smartest."
"You must be the Sad Mummy I've heard about, I apologize for the rude welcoming." He said, and out of habit held out his hand to the small mummy.

With the sudden attack of the ghoul. The amnesiac moved surprisingly fast for his his height. Having been found a couple a feet away behind the summoner that was talking to the Gravedigger. Shivering behind her, he clutches onto her cloths slowly peering out to see if the ghoul was actually gone.
After a few moments of whimpering and sniffling he finally spoke up. "Its... okay, I just... wasn't prepared for that...." Even after saying that he stayed behind the summoner still shivering a bit in fear of the other ghouls that would be around

Seeing the mummy join in on the conversation was a welcoming surprise. Patting the little guy on the head as the child like Amumu was at times too adorable to resist babying him.
The brief moment of serenity was brought to an abrupt end as the ghoul lashed out at the mummy. Pulling him back behind her on instinct. Forgetting that the sensitive little yordle is considered a champion. With Yorick's quick strike on the ghoul the emergency died down as Jeniah's heart steadily slowed down from its previous racing.
Noticing that Amumu was hiding behind her she started patting him on the head attempting to calm him down. "Don't worry about the monsters. I'm sure the gravedigger will keep them in line." She said showing a bit of a sister like personality she rarely showed anyone in the institute.
Turning back to the gravedigger. Giving him a bow of thanks. "Well thank you for stopping the ghould.... if I can ask though... who is your king?"
"Again, I apologize for the crude welcome." He said, the ghoul wasn't supposed to be there, he thought he had ordered them to only appear when he wanted them to. The Gravedigger looked at the other champion, despite being undead he seemed to show a little too much emotion, it intrigued Yorick.
He turned back to Jeniah, "I know not what his name was before he became who he is now. Now he goes under the title of the Ruined King, although I'm afraid I cannot tell you more about him. If you wish to know more, you'll have to talk to your higher ups." The Gravedigger didn't know how much he'd be able to tell the young girl before him, if she wanted to meet the king, she'd not return to Valoran in a long time.

"Hmm I'm afraid I will not be able to find out soon then. I am only a junior summoner after all. I still have to work my way up." Walking back closer to the Gravedigger trying to think of other questions that would be relevant at the moment.
"I have to ask one more thing before I leave.... Do you remember who you were? When you were alive that is." She asked rather bluntly. Thinking maybe the Mummy might have been interested to know that like she was currently.
Yorick looks at the summoner as she comes closer to him, he's a bit unsure of her real intentions, so far she's the one who's been here for the longest without breaking down into a psychotic mess.
When she asks who he was he blinks a few times and puts down the blade of the shovel into the ground.
"I... I do not remember who I was, all I know is that I was a gravedigger, just as I am now. I came here because they might know something I do not." He replied and looked down on the Mummy before looking back at her,"I believe that was all you wanted to ask, so I will return to my digging."

"So... you're like me then?" The little mummy musters up some courage to talk now a bit curious if other undead may have lost their memory just as he had. "I have no memory of who I was... and I'm still looking for answers myself..." He kept his eyes looking down and away from the grave digger a bit too nervous to look directly at him. "The only thing I know is that I'm sad.... but I don't know why I have this despair...." He said more worried than ever about who he was or could had been.
The gravedigger looked at the mummy. Raising an eyebrow and blinking once before speaking to the child sized undead. "We may seem simil!r, little one. But I am afraid that we are quite different too. Where did you awaken? It might give you some hints." The gravedigger replied and pulled out the blade from the dirt."I'm afraid that I have spet too much time speaking with you two for now. You are allowed to return at a later date, but for now I will have to ask you to leave."
