Elden Ring lore thread

Its Ranni's:

Ranni: “Mine will be an order not of gold, but the stars and moon of the chill night. But I want to keep it all away from this land. Even if life and soul are closely bound with an order, I could just distance it all away. It’d be best if mine order could never be seen, felt, believed in, or touched again. This is why I would leave this land with mine order. Even so, I know thou would follow me, my one and only lord”.

Golden order is shit
Ranni stole death on her own and is the best waifu
Morgott is the strongest demigod
If you didn’t use mimic tear you didn’t beat the game

Marika was acquitted

did you say vaati?!? I really hate vaati
did you know he actually stole super secret lore theories from 4cheddit and used them to make millions on youtube? what af ucking bastard
i really hate that guy, and I'm a lore expert

There will definitely be DLC. It will print money. No idea how long it'll take though

Reminder that the following are confirmed:
- Marika planned the night of black knives and killed Godwyn
- Ranni conspired with Marika directly
Now we can continue with the lore thread

Long enough for me to drop it but I beat Bloodborne like 5 times after two weeks of its release. This game I can’t even unlock 10% of the map to view after that many hours

>Morgott is the strongest demigod
Morgott = Malenia > Radahn > everyone else?

Random pieces of (maybe obvious, maybe not) lore that isn't related to the usual shitfling debates.

>The Fingercreepers are born of Rykard. They share his uneven fingers and jewellery, and the Ringed Finger (cut from their ancestor) shows signs of life even while severed, and was born of an ancient act of blasphemy
>If you try to kill Blaidd before his sleeper program is activated, he will ask you how can you kill a shadow and respawn upon reload; this is how Gurranq remains after Maliketh is defeated
>Evidence suggests Sellen transformed herself. She is the Graven Witch banished for her forbidden studies, and the balls are Graven Masses made with forbidden sorceries, used for studying the primeval currents. Some suggest that her research had developed enough, and she turned herself into a star seed as the next step.
>The teleportation to Farum Azula is built into the Forge of the Giants itself; Bernahl's maiden burned and he ended up in FA, and Alexander says he's going to bathe in it and he ends up in FA. Melina's dagger alludes to this.
>The Crucible Knights originally worked for Godfrey, possibly before he met Marika and possibly before the Erdtree even grew. After those with grace became tarnished (some might find it noteworthy they did not become tarnished, thus likely never had grace in the first place) they were scorned as chaotic and went into hiding, most of them going underground.
>The Deathbirds were born of the Twinbird, an envoy to an unnamed outer god. They burned the dead in ghostflame, and held rituals of resurrection. Their sorceries are of the same type as Fia's.
>Despite his apparent uselessness, D did find the missing cursemark of Godwyn. This is likely the important mission he speaks of. After Fia kills him, she says, "Finally, it is returned to its rightful place. The stolen hallowbrand of the exalted noble." and later, "Godwyn's hallowbrand has since been recovered at the Roundtable Hold." This is why she did it.

Area gives you a vibe that the world is in it's twilight and you showed up too late, which wasn't really conveyed in the other zones in my opinion. Very moody.
Was a great area to explore, too bad I murdered every mob in it 40 times already before getting there.

But I thought the frenzy ending was Instrumentality from evangelion, how is the crucible also instrumentality? They're both the same thing?

Anyway, Malenia went after Radahn to free the stars. Miquella probably asked her to.

He gave an ending with 5 fingers but cut it if that counts.

I think the stars were just a Ranni thing, Malenia and Miquella probably gained nothing from it, but it's possible.

Why? Stars only effect Caria's fate, why would Miquella give a shit?

DLC

u gay ur mom gay

unrelated to the lore here but can someone put down a gold sign for the twin gargoyles boss fight in nokron? these faggots are annoying me.

So what's with all the stone tablets in Marika's bedchamber? Where they like the laws of the land? Why are they all stacked like that all over the place? Wouldn't make it easy to read them.

fuck that fight, it sucks ass and when cooping 50% of the time the fucking gargoyle glitches out and doesn't drop down from the cliff, making it impossible to kill it.

no

I still have no fucking clue what the fingers are
So it goes like this
>Order-themed lovecraftian spacedust wants to colonize planets
>Chucks down a space whale as a vassal, space whale can give "Grace" to people then enslaves a woman who becomes "A god"
>Then there are fingers that I don't know anything about
What the fuck are they? How do they relate to the greater will? Why are there three fingers which are then aligned with frenzied flame? What the fuck do they do?

you're all caught up user

watch the vaati video, or play the first 30 minutes of the game

>someone saved my thread
kek thanks bro

>space whale can give "Grace" to people
Marika made the tarnished by taking away their grace and she also gave the grace back, not the Greater Will

The Fingers are the envoys to the Greater Will. They receive the cosmic radio waves and waggle their fingers to communicate with the finger readers.

Goldenmask also waggled his finger to communicate.

>Rya is a cute
objective truth

It was a great thread

Read the comments, it was an April Fool's joke.

>Morgott is the strongest active demigod
Yeah, as if Melina literally going black blade assassin on his ass wasn't enough to establish that. Malenia and Mohg are only "stronger" because they have gods backing them.
Let's see if this stands true when Miquella wakes the fuck up.

>Mimic tear
Based beyond belief king, I bet you used perfumes on him because he replenishes those for FREE after each summon.

fag

Do you think we’ll get a “unify the lands between” ending?
>get all rememberances
>nepheli pledges stormveil
>ranni or selen lucaria
>snek girl volcano manor
>maybe the inquisitor for caelid?
>millicent or the archer phantom summon for haligtree?

Yes. We will definitely get this ending.

Fingers are either low ranking "gods" or some kind of cosmic messengers.

>Two Fingers in Caelid belonging to Radahn/his great rune:
>dead
>Two Fingers in Limgrave belonging Godrick/his great rune:
>dead
There are multiple Two Fingers, including the main one in the Roundhold operating with the Roundhold Tarnished. The interesting thing is the Three Fingers is the only one for the Frenzied Flame and none seem to exist but there are the Twinbirds which operate as a herald for another unnamed Outer God.

brb time to invade outside gargoyles

They aren’t really reliable as messengers, or the maidens are full of shit in their interpretation

The roundtable fingers tell you to become elden lord and to go to the capital but once you get there it’s closed and it doesn’t seem like you’re meant to be one

faggot

about as likely as an ending where you go to the Lands Between Football League championships with Boggart, get into a fight with a bunch of cuntface Redmane ultras, eat a mountain of crab after smashing their fuckin gobs, and get tossed in an evergaol after you pinch Rya's bum

Radagon closes it, the fingers didn't know. You have to remember it takes thousands of moons for them to commune with the Greater Will, which is cool for the immortals but only sucks for us.

Crone Maidens repeatedly show you your "path" through the story, so that isn't true.

I will play the DLC but i dont think i can handle another dark souls game.

stay mad summon boy

Hope you cunts don't go on vaati tier headcanon rambles

I mean what tips me off is that we have two npcs yet that litterally pledge their loyalty to you after gaining a position of power (sellen and nepheli)

Since nepheli quest has been added after release one can dream
