以绪塔尔 Ixtal

以绪塔尔以精通元素魔法而闻名，也是第一批加入恕瑞玛帝国的独立国家之一。实际上，以绪塔尔文化发源极早，属于西部大迁徙的一部分，并孕育了后世的许多文明，包括芭茹、壮丽的海力亚、苦行的巨神峰族人。并且他们也有可能在第一个飞升者诞生的过程中扮演了重要的角色。

Renowned for its mastery of elemental magic, Ixtal was one of the first independent nations to join the Shuriman empire. In truth, Ixtali culture is much older—part of the great westward diaspora that gave rise to civilizations including the Buhru, magnificent Helia, and the ascetics of Targon—and it is likely they played a significant role in the creation of the first Ascended.

但是以绪塔尔的法师们将荒野作为屏障隔离了自己，挺过了虚空战争，以及之后的暗裔侵袭。当近乎一切都已毁灭，他们决定保护这个世界所剩不多的遗产……

But the mages of Ixtal survived the Void, and later the Darkin, by distancing themselves from their neighbors, drawing the wilderness around them like a shield. While much had already been lost, they were committed to the preservation of what little remained…

现在，于丛林中隔绝世界千年之后，以绪奥肯的精巧城市几乎没有受到外界的任何影响。以绪塔尔人从远方见证了福光岛的破败以及随后发生的符文战争，从此便将符文之地的其他族群视为暴发户和觊觎者，决心用自己强大的魔法将他们拒之门外

Now, secluded deep in the jungle for thousands of years, the sophisticated arcology-city of Ixaocan remains mostly free of outside influence. Having witnessed from afar the ruination of the Blessed Isles and the Rune Wars that followed, the Ixtali view all the other factions of Runeterra as upstarts and pretenders, and use their powerful magic to keep any intruders at bay.
