    13:24 it's LORE TIME. In short the slumbering lady was stopping time in the ringed city. When you broke the egg and woke her up, time took its course once more and caught up. You are looking at the future. The ultimate fate if the Fire is kept being link. The world slowly deprived of life. Gael has collected all the fragment of the original Dark Soul (Pigmy's soul, the ancestor of humanity). It's now up to you to vanquish him, collect THE Dark Soul and bring it to the painter in the past (your present) so she can create a new world with it

    The soul of cinder is MANY people's favorite dark souls boss, myself included, for reasons that someone who started with 3 couldn't really get, but hey! That's what I'm here for
    The first doesn't doesn't want to get kindled, since it's unnatural in this world, so in every game it tries to defend itself by creating or controlling a fighter to defend it. From another perspective it could be very well seen as a test to see if you're worthy to kindle but that's likely what's spread by the holy people of the land.
    In the first dark souls, this champion was gwyn... Kind of. The first flame conjured his burnt out corpse, a husk of his former self and former glory, to defend itself as a last ditch effort. After you killed gwyn, you attained his soul, and linked the flame.
    In dark souls 3, the soul of cinder is an amalgamation of every single person who's ever linked the fire, and more specifically: the chosen undead. This means your fighting your character from dark souls 1
    The soul of cinder uses exactly 6 weapon slots like you, sword, scimitar, spear, pyromancy flame, talisman, and sorcery staff. He has 9 spells, all of which are in the game: soul spear, homing soul mass, soul greatsword, soul stream, fire orb, the power within, toxic mist, wrath of the gods, and a heal. He uses moves and attacks that exist in dark souls 1 but not dark souls 3, it's truly an incredible boss
    After you beat ohase 1, as a final gambit, the soul of cinder uses it's most powerful soul left in it's arsonel: the soul of gwyn. He gets a flaming greatsword, and the entire second phase is a remaster of gwyns boss fight. He has gwyns moves, his lock, his grab, a bunch of new moves thrown in, and lightning. The music in the second phase changes from the cool fight music to a slow and somber one as it mixes in a softer more somber version of gwyns BOSS MUSIC...
    It's a masterpiece of a boss and the perfect love letter to the series
    Gael is on a quest to attain the Lord soul for his Lady to use as pigment for the painting, but he knew it would drive him insane probably as he got closer and closer to putting it together, so he left an insurance policy, a way for his quest to complete even after going mad by having the dark soul. At the end of the world when only 2 people have the dark soul in them still, when one of them gets it, the dark soul will be complete. So he left you messages and helped you get to him all across the dreg heap and ringed City, for the express purpose of slaying him and then going back in time to give the dark soul to his Lady.
    Fun detail about gaels teleport, if you look closely at it, you can actually see he's doing it by using summoning signs, the multiplayer item XD

      I want you to know that I really appreciate your help throughout these journeys brother. You have genuinely helped me to understand these so much better, which in return, made me appreciate these games so much more. The lores you provide, unironically, are better than like 90% of the existing lore videos on UA-cam. They are concise and straight to the point but also info-packed. You’ve also managed to avoid all the spoilers during critical segments like a champ. I genuinely wish you to know, thanks so much brother. That being said, these two bosses may just have to be two of best bosses I’ve ever fought in my entire life even before these context. With the context in mind, it’s just holy sht lmao. Soul of Cinder is such a love letter to the soul community and a perfect way to end the series, and Gael is just Chad, like an actual Chad.

    first of all, gratz square on beating the game
    2nd, u nearly discovered the hidden fire keeper ending but didnt quite sadly xD when u noticed u could move u also couldave attacked her to get a different ending where u actually steal the first flame all for yourself
    3rd ye, cinder is a hella amazing final souls boss, hes the personification of every single person to ever link the first flame, therefor, hes a fusion of all dark souls players, havin 4 forms, the straight sword base form, spear with miracles, curved sword with pyromancy and mage, befor in phase 2 fully transforming into the final boss from dark souls 1 (with the added wombo combo and the lightning spells but aside 1:1 the same moves and the piano pling pling plong)
    4th i just wanna say, great videos, enjoyed the edits, the music (specially the FF14 ones), was generally a good watch every vid, came for the blind souls but think ill stick arround for the video quality
    and finally 5th, to please the veteran in me, now do it again with a dex build and after that naked Kappa

    Even if you don't get to see it on camera to give you further closure for DS3 go back to the churches attic in Ariandel and give the painter The Blood of the Dark Soul, and when she asks for your name tell her you have no name. That to me is the true finale of the Dark Souls trilogy.

    imma be honest, gael is a really fun fight. i beat him not too long ago in like 13 tries on NG+ on my first round about at him and i never had more fun than that fight and lord of cinder. in my opinion i think DS3 is better than elden ring and when the elden ring dlc drops i just know imma be droolin on it. anyways i will say 2k hours and 54 playthroughs of elden ring really made DS1 and DS3 easier than i thought them to be but still major blasts to go through. also first time against lord of cinder, bro ran me for my heals but i somehow did it first try, NG+ i did it with only having to heal 3 times which to me was major improvement.
    DS3 is probably the BEST souls game i have touched to date, i wanna play bloodborne so badly but uhhh...xbox, so i cant.
    now your comment on malenia, i agree shes kinda BS on your first time against her but trust me when i say this, once you memorize her shes practically a joke. she can get staggered by almost every weapon type that its laughable.
