The story takes place in the cities of Piltover and Zaun.
Although Arcane focuses only on these two cities, they belong to the world of
Runeterra. Piltover is the academic and scientific and wealthy city, while Zaun
is the complete opposite, with suburbs full of crime, poverty and infested with
toxic chemicals, where there is no type of authority. The tensions and
rivalries that exist between these two cities divide families and friends as in
the case of Vi and Powder, two Zaunite sisters; or Jayce and Viktor, two
inventor friends and apprentices of the legendary scientist Heimerdinger. All
these relationships will overflow with the creation of Hextech in Piltover, a
technology with which anyone is able to control magical energy, while in Zaun a
new drug transforms humans into monsters.
