Once every few weeks, the sand would shift across the blazing earth, to reveal a place that was dismissed as just a myth. It was no other place than Icathia, a city that belonged to strange creatures, and what is said to be the gate to Valoran and the Void.
Buildings shot out from the sand, tilting this way and that, though some managed to stay in their perfect position. The insides of the buildings were littered with sand, and traces of what was left of the Void.
In what of the more less damaged buildings sat Malzahar, in a worn out and dirty chair. He sat there, taking a break from traveling across the Shurima. He pulled out his dagger, and made it float about in front of him, as a little voidling was huddled up at his feet, enjoying its time with its master.

A scrap of paper flutters on the breeze, a tabloid sheet that must have traveled miles by wind to reach this alien place. By chance? Unlikely. Perhaps guided by the magnetic pull of Icathia.
This article from the Piltover Post, printed on thin recycled paper, has somehow remained legible despite its apparent journey halfway across Valoran. The paper's edges are ripped unevenly, as though someone had torn it hastily from the larger publication.
A title reads, Unknown Beasts Sighted in City, Residents in Panic and beneath this lies a blurry picture of some monstrous form. Details are difficult to make out, the photo's swift subject mostly a blur of color save for two gleaming eyes...

Malzahar leans forward in his chair to see a piece of paper floating near the entrance. He looks around for a moment and stands up. Instead of walking down the few steps that lead to his chair, he takes a few steps forward before his feet begin to glow a shade of purple. He begins to float forward, as his little Voidling pet, Rel'Zik, follows.
He picks up the tabloid, getting some of the sand off of it and reads the title. He looks at the picture, as a smile spread across his lips. He crumples the paper up and tosses it to the side. He kneels down to his pet and puts out his arm. "Come on Rel. We have work to do." He says as the Voidling crawls up his arm and onto his shoulder.
He puts his hand out in front of him as it too begins to glow with the power of the Void. A portal that connected this place to Piltover began to form, as he wal-err... Floats through it. The portal than closes once he went through.
It wasn't till long that a portal opened, with a Voidling hopping out. Malzahar came in after it, as he looked around. He waited for Cho'Gath, and once he was there he went back to his sandy throne and sat in it. "Do whatever you need to make yourself comfortable here. We shall be coming back here regularly after going from place to place.

Malzahar nodded. "The plan is to wipe life forms off of this continent, so that we can make way for the Void." He said. "We start in small towns, and set up portals there for Void creatures to roam in and out of. From those points we spread, going from city to city. Operations such as these however should most likely happen over night." He said. "Sounds good? I'm sure you'll want to eat this planet whole, but I was thinking that we best save this one, and simply move onto the next one. However, if all fails, you are more than welcome to devour Runeterra."

"Indeed it will. We have ideas of who we shall recruit. The other Void champions will do well, as well as others. Perhaps even the Shadow Isles." He said. "Perhaps you would like someone to fight along our side?"

"For starters, the other Void champions are a must. We must find Kha'Zix and Kog'Maw as soon as possible. As for other candidates I was thinking Syndra. I'm sure we can get her to come with us with the promise of power. However, she's always been stubborn, given her past history, so it may be a difficult task. Then there's Nocturne who I've taken into consideration. Who knows, maybe the fallen angel, Morgana will join our cause as well." He said. During this time, he pulled out his dagger and let it float in front of him as he talked.
Cho'gath was silent for a moment then laughed, the Nightmare was free..he could feel it. They told him so.
"It appears Nocturne is free...they tell me so. We must...find it. Morgana will join us if we promise her the pleasure of killing her sister,Kayle. The other void creatures would be a great start...but i feel the people of Runeterra planning something...we may have company soon."

Malzahar rolled his eyes, though it wasn't visible since his eyes were always covered by the glow. "We worried that those would interfere with the our plan. If Nocturne is free we must head out now before the summoners get to him... Ermm... It..."
" I have...requested that he come here. But we must prepare, the League will be sending champions here to asses the situation. The two of us would not stand the greatest chance against a group of the fools we fought with in the League."
Lured to the strange city of Icathica with a strong sense of temptation, the ravenous beast from the Void, Kog'Maw, dwaddled over towards a certain place infused with fresh power from the void. A single word escaped from the beast's gaping mouth.
"Malzahar..."
Kog'Maw's 4 eyes scanned around him quickly. That's when he found it. A single point of energy allowing him to re-open the portal that Malazahar himself opened not long ago. While stepping through it his stomach growled in anticipation.
