  • In "The Raid", Braum is told to Go On Without Me as a Freljordian is injured in an attack and intends to perform a Heroic Sacrifice by way of shattering the glacial wall they're standing on, to ensure the attackers cannot follow Braum and her infant son whom Braum is carrying, her last words is for Braum to raise her son well. Ordinarily, you'd expect such a scene to end with Braum walking away from the scene, perhaps cutting away post-timeskip to show the boy having grown up strong and proud. Not on Braum's watch! With a resolute "Come, little one" He jumps onto his shield, surfs down the mountainside, overtakes the avalanche, tackles the falling Freljordian out of her fall with his free arm, taking the brunt of the fall himself, landing right in front of the avalanche, quickly handing the Freljordian her baby back, then picks up his shield, and blocks the avalanche while giving them both reassuring smiles as the avalanche is forced to part around them. It doesn't matter whether it's bows, cannons, magic, or avalanches, Braum will protect you.
  • In "After Victory", we see the end of a war between Noxus and Urtis. Darius saves the life of a slave who defied her ungrateful king, who demanded she die for him after she saved his crown from being destroyed. He then offers her a chance to become more than a slave, the short ending with the king's crown being melted down and made into a sword that the slave, now a Noxian warrior, wields.
    Darius: "Kings demand you kneel before their heirlooms and unearned titles. Noxus wants you to stand. So you can be reforged in a glory shared by all."
