VERSES
after jayce's father had died, ximena had made it her mission to take her and her child somewhere else, wanting to give her son a better life. despite the passing of his father, his grandparents had taken them in, allowing them to move to piltover and continue to be apart of the talis house. however, it would turn out not to go smoothly, as they walked through deep snow, the wind howling, his mother collapsed. in a panic, he called out, trying to not only protect his mother but try and find anyone in the snowstorm that could possibly help them.
a man had appeared from the snow, cloaked and unable to tell who it was, the cloaked man had saved them, teleporting them elsewhere, away from the blizzard. the cloaked man would leave jayce with the crystal he'd used for his spell.
this encounter would shaped his desire to learn more about magic and conduct research to harness magic through science later in his life.
being part of house talis, a family of renowned toolmakers most known for their hammers and the collapsible pocket wrench, most expected jayce to join their family business. however, he was determined in his research into science and the arcane. eventually, he became a scholar at the academy in piltover, where he was favored by the dean and the head of the council, professor heimerdinger, and by the kirammans, who saw his ambition and decided to support him as his patron.
sometime after buying supplies from benzo's in the lanes, jayce returned to his workshop just in time for him to realize that it had been broken into. one of the children inside accidentally dropped one of his many unstable crystals and caused an explosion. this alerted heimerdinger, the authorities, and the council of his unauthorized research, and he was put on trial in front of the council.
despite heimerdinger's suggestion, jayce told the council about his research being for harnessing magic through science, invoking fear among the council of the dangers of unchecked magic in the hands of those with no innate arcane talent. councilor bolbok moved to have jayce exiled, after which jayce's mother stepped forward and pled his case. heimerdinger allowed it and instead asked the council for a more lenient punishment — jayce's expulsion from the academy. councilor kiramman turned her back on jayce. however, their daughter caitlyn maintained her belief in him, and he was resigned to the idea that he would have to follow in his father's footsteps after all.
to jayce, his punishment was worse than death, to the point where he contemplated jumping off of his former workshop's building before he was stopped by viktor, the dean's assistant, who decided to help him with his research. with viktor's advice, jayce realized how he could stabilize the crystals. racing against time to prove the efficacy of his research the day before his equipment is scheduled to be destroyed, viktor helped him break into heimerdinger's laboratory to reclaim his crystals and test their theory.
their attempts with their new calculations caused bright lights and a minor explosion that caught the attention of heimerdinger and the enforcers. still, by the time they'd forced their way into the laboratory, the crystal had stabilized, with jayce, viktor, and other objects around them floating in the air with the crystal. though heimerdinger was impressed, he was still conflicted about embracing it due to the risks it posed, but the ambitious councilor medarda arrived and proclaimed that they should bring it to the council.
jayce would eventually earn the support of the other councilors, working for them to create the hexgates that revolutionized trade and transportation, and putting piltover on the map as the global shipping lane. being credited for piltover's newfound prosperity, jayce became popular in piltover and was given the moniker "the man of progress."
