- elden ring lore
honestly was really hard trying to make a 10 minute video out of all the lore in elden ring in a comedic way.
i tried my best to simplify it in a way where the story is still okay, but had to cut out a LOOTTT of content.
This is also my first time drawing these deformed stick figures with my mouse on ms paint/photo shop and THAT took the life of my hands away, so in the end im actually glad i cut out a lot of sht because if i made a 30 min video in this style, say good bye to my hands lol.
in the end this took 2 weeks to make soooo enjoy the video!
(very open to feedback)
wow i didnt expect this many views lol. appreciate all the feedback!
this is the first time i tried making this type of video(editing, scripting and drawing-wise) and i lowkey was a zombie near the end.
drawing all this sht with a mouse on mspaint/photoshop really got me fcked up. anyways thanks for watching!!!!
Amazing video, You should totally do it again after shadow of the erdtree comes
you should do other soulsborne games i.e. bloodborne would make for an interesting history video!
Great Video! My only complaint is that Marika and Radagon were unified before the shattering since the reason why Miquella and Malenia are cursed is because they were conceived by a single god. So basically Marika and Radagon aren't two people fused together but two halves of one god.
You should definitely do more games in this format, it's very entertaining to watch
man touched the rune of death in game litterally how can you confuse it?????
Rennala's depression was caused not only by Radagon's departure but also the suicide of Ranni and possibly the state of her other children as well. That's why she is obsessed only with the item that Radagon left with her, the item that lets her create new children
A
if ranni killed herself then how come there’s a whole quest and ending with her
@obedbingham4374 If you paid any attention you would know, she is literally a spirit in a doll and her body is a charred corpse
@@peachyjam9440 that doesn’t explain anything. at rannis ending ranni IS there, if she killed herself with the death rune, not even a spirit would work. so i don’t get it
@@obedbingham4374Godwyns soul died, rannis body died. That’s why she’s still able to take over a physical form
Funfact in limgrave if you walk south from the first step grace sight you will find crucified peoples these are actually tarnished who didn’t make it out of the lands between which comes from the description of the rusted anchor weapon
Fun fact: if you step out of the starter cave and walk backwards, you walk back into the cave 💀💀
Fun fact: if you jump off a high point, you die
people dying in endless torment, such a fun fact
Fun fact if you get crucified in real life, you get to come back as an overpowered God vessel
Fun Fact: Facts can be fun. Also you are itchy on at least one body part right now.

_13 Missed calls from Dragonlord Placidusax_
Yeah, they skipped over a lot of stuff to get this in 10 minutes.
Placi was the elden lord during the era of the crucible and the great tree so yea
@dragonslayer3552 maybe I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure he ruled even before that
@@JP12345 Placidusax, like everything else, did come from the crucible. I thought your original comment meant that because the rest of the ancient dragons are descendants of Placidusax, they don't come from the crucible.
@@JP12345 there is no text or any visual detail that even assumes placi existed before the crucible
What I learned from this is that if you lose to Maliketh, it should erase your game save. Because his blade stops you from resurrecting.
and those black knife assassins too
Not delete your gamesave because that would be f'ed up, but it would be interesting to maybe just scare the player with a different dying scene or something like that
I’m glad this doesn’t happen, everyone complains about Malenia but I never had much trouble with her, Maliketh is my kryptonite
@@dill-pickle423 Maliketh was the only boss I gave up and used the mimic tears
@@dill-pickle423I only managed to beat him using the parry item
good video but Mohg wasn’t sent to underground he was banished to the sewers like his twin and when he snuck out he left an illusion in his place you can find his illusion in the sewers right before the frenzied flame
thank youuu. the vid was well done but this bothered me too lol
oh is that who i fought???
that is still undeground bro
Is also bothers me that marika was involved in godwin’s assassination but in the video it seems she had nothing to fo with that and was sad about it
@@ninetailsfoxkyuubi2744 i mean we don’t really know do we
I appreciate that you drew Radagon with cake. As we all know Radagon/Marika had the biggest bakery in all of the land’s between

Great video fr. One note is mohg was also locked up under leyndell, he just escaped
i knew this was the case holy shit i just came from the video and knew this was an inaccuracy as soon as i heard it like 🤨
no? Mohg in the sewers is just remnants before a rewrite. That is not canon
@@TheFlopped2979 that is so non canon that you can also find his schackles in the sewers...
@@pieth68 Still think its remnants of a rewrite tbh. Although i do think it ties in the lore somehow, like sewer mohg is ike almost like a "Hologram" and Lord of blood is real Mohg
@@TheFlopped2979It’s not “remnant of a rewrite,” it’s fully intentional. It is explicitly stated multiple times throughout item descriptions that Omens born of noble families are sent to the sewers under the capitol. Morgott and Mohg were sent there, Mohg left. The illusory Mohg was almost definitely created by Morgott for unknown reasons. Most likely to safeguard the burial place of the wandering merchants and the frenzied flame. Morgott is shown to have the power to create projections of himself, as he does in his first fight, and the non-boss fight before arriving in the capitol. Also, as stated above, Mohg’s shackle is found in the sewers, where he was imprisoned.
When Radagon married Marika, all of his children, Ranni, Radahn and Rykard all gained the status of demigod, also, Ranni killed her body and killed only godwyn's soul, in a successful attempt to escape the greater will control, they then buried godwyn's body near the tree's roots in an attempt to do something, thats why you can find hidden in some places roots that have godwyn's squid face (his body turned into a weird fish when they killed his soul)
Yes, Godwyn is in a weird state of being dead but not really. His soul is gone, but his body remains there, alive. This put him in this unique state that no one really understands, and due to his power as a demigod and Marika's firstborn heir, his influence starts spreading through the roots of the Erdtree. I love Godwyn's portion of the story because the fact that he'll likely one day consume all of the Lands Between despite the fact that he's technically dead and not even there anymore adds this Lovecraftian feeling to it.
If Radagon and Marika are the same, then Ranni, Radahn and Rykard already were demigods. That would also explain why Ranni is an Empyrean despite only being secretly connected to Marika (yes, every Empyrean we know about is descended from Marika)
Turning into a fish when things go south is a common thing in Celtic mythology.
Ah yes the fusion video of vaatis lore video and the history of the entire world, I guess
I guess
…perhaps?
great video, gonna send it to my friends who didnt understand the lore, but one correction for around 5:40 : mohg was not sent to underworld, he was supposed to be at leyndell sewers along with other omens. we fight an “illusion” of Mohg in the sewers, since he’s actually supposed to be there. but in reality, mohg found another outer god, I think it was called formless mother or something, that relates to all those bleed stuff. But since Mohg is an Omen, not an Empyrean he cannot be a vessel for Greater Will, so he kidnapped his half brother Miquella(who is an Empyrean) in his cocoon after the shattering, to the underworld to “wed” Miquella and and be Elden Lord(?) as his consort, via inheriting Elden Ring and empowering HIS OWN outer god. I kind of messed up explaining in the end because of the small screen of mobile comment section but it’s something like that.
thiiiis
interesting
Hey isnt this going to be part of the DLC?
@@ZVLIAN yes the DLC is about some other realm, there are speculations about that but most people think that (so do I ever since I beat Mohg and saw the cocoon) we’re gonna access DLC by touching Miquella’s hand, and teleport to that other land. Apparently, that land is “where Marika first set foot” and seperated from the Lands Between. The red haired figure in the DLC trailer, Messmer is Marika’s son who resides in that shadowland or whatever it’s name is.
mohg found genderbent Oedon?
ive been on a lore deep dive trying to understand wtf happens in this lore and this video genuinely helped me understand more than any of the videos ive watched combined
Personally I've always been a fan of the theory morgott was raised as prince until godfreys grace was taken, it seems _extremely_ likely
How though if he was an Omen, I know he is royalty but don't royal Omens just have their horns shaved off like Morgott did?
@@NiightRunnerrroyal omens don't get their horns shaved off, those happen to regular omens
This theory makes sense, considering it’s heavily implied that Godfreys age was much more crucible-coded and Radagon/Marikas age was much more N*zi-coded
@@NiightRunnerrWhen Godfrey was first made Elden Lord the Golden Order was chill with Omens and Misbegotten (even considering the horns etc as Holy hence the look of the Crucible Knights).
At some point (maybe after Radagon appeared I’m not sure it could be earlier than that) things became much more exclusionary and anti-Crucible. It’s possible that Morgott was raised as a true Prince for a short time before this change in his mother and her order’s views but u haven’t seen anything to support this.
@@maximilliannewcombe1719 Rogier describes that in the beginning of the golden orders rule they were much less ridged. Probably during the wars for Lyndell, the giants, and maybe liurnia were all times they were more. The troll sword I think describes that the trolls allied themselves with Lyndell during the war with the giants but the cairan house has troll knights up to the present so i doubt they were as accepting after they destroyed one of the last true threats to the golden orders.
Though I feel the stormviel castle was the last time that Godfrey lead forces into battle and soon after he was banished so too were all the crucible influence in the golden orders.
this was cool. really liked the editing and art style you used.
and god damn them two fingers creepy
thanks!
yeah just cuz u name "it the entire history of elden ring, I guess" doesnt mean u gotta use the same editing
@@redmist6630it's very different from the original video's editing idk what you're talking about

Finally someone explaining the lore in a simple way a pea brain like me can acftually understand
Theres a few things that are wrong so I'd suggest watching Vaati
@@ItsVentiI have his Elden Ring Lore playlist saved up for some day. Is it any good? This video caught my eye, tho, because it's short and concrete, and rather new, the others are kinda long tbf
@T3NZ0. Yeah the videos are great, very accurate and nice to listen to in the background while doing something else.
@@ItsVenti Ty! Gonna check them out sooner, then
I couple of Lore inaccuracies but I can chalk that up to comedic effect which I respect, SmoughTown does amazing long form videos that could be similarly summarized in this comedic style I highly recommend them.

I've never been able to watch through a whole story telling video for a game until today.
such a great video it put so many pieces together. i’ve watched hours of lore videos and feel like i could’ve accomplished it all with this one 10 minute video. outstanding
It skips over a lot of stuff, so I would recommend still looking a other things. It is useful to get a timeline though.
their strenght, extraordinaire
this was truly amazing. there's so many lore videos on youtube but none like this. i prefer this. no time wasted. If you have the energy it would be aweseme to see more elden ring lore videos like this. I still haven't under stood the entire story of godwyn for example.
Well done. You should do some more specific topics in the lore
any recommendations?

This is the history channel that i only need in Elder Ring, as a first time player of Souls game. Thanks
You did great reaserch and explained everything perfectly. Keep up the work
This is more digestable than those 12 hour videos.
Thank you.
How it starts: golden cosmic God usurped the life tree
How in ends: some half naked nobody tries to solve the worst divorce case in the history of fantasy
5:43 nope
Both twins were locked in the sewers. They both got shackled down there. But Mohg got visited by The formless mother god who freed him and inspired him to make the dynasty underground out of sight of his family.
Man, you didn't expect these views, but you smashed all the history into dense story, something I've been looking for for ages. Main facts in one movie instead of 1626317w83 movies with all the details. I needed this movie to connect main things, so thank you kind sir!
"Untill a tarnished with a brain came out" well I am damn sure he ain't talking about me cuz I burned the whole turn down with the frenzy flame ending cuz I went to the three fingers as a joke and didn't know how to get rid of it.
Funnily enough detting rid of it is harder than ending the game in general
I’ve watched so many lore videos and this is the first time I’ve had the core story told in such an accessible way, I finally understand, thank you!
0:40 is wild.
I was NOT expecting that.
I always looked at it like Marika created Radagon as a persona for herself to escape control of the Greater Will. Like she banished the Tarnished purposefully, with a plan to bring the back at an opportune time, as well as connecting the royal families of Leyndell and Liurnia by blood, in order to create a future free of the Elden Ring, Erdtree, and Greater Will.
This is correct, radagon is marika. Marika turned herself into Radagon to take advantage of Renalla.
They were never separate as you can tell by the goldmask ending
ok that makes more sense because the "big moment of truth" where u learn that is such a nothingbomb until u watch 3 lore vids. Im just like "ok... and?"
But... she had won? She was the God of the Golden Order. She was the one being worshipped, not the Greater Will. And I'm pretty sure she still had personal autonomy, since the gods don't get mind controlled into not acting like mortals until Goldmask makes his mending rune.
@ReallyNeedsCoffee well she had a plan but it didn't go exactly how she wanted because ranni killed godwyn, and in her grief she shattered the elden ring
I was there, 100 years ago, as one of the first 1000 subscribers. You sir have a bright future.
Keep making videos like these and you'll soon be at 100k
bro the tarnished coming back was like the frigen pizza guy meme XD
Also I seriously appreciate this vid been looking for one like it for awhile, God bless mate
Unironically the most comprehensible explanation of this game's lore.
Awesome video! Plenty of inaccurices or oversimplifactions but that's what happens when you have 7 books worth of lore in one 10 minute video. Seriously well done
5:44 Mohg actually lived in the capital sewers with Morgott but escaped which is why we can find his shackle down there
The best way I can describe Elden Ring's story is like this.
... Typical Floridian Family Reunion, and you're the host.

@@metorasay AM I WRONG!?
no we're not the host, we're the cousin who just returned to Florida from somewhere else and is the only one who isn't completely drunk, on some kinda drug, insane or all a combination of all three
@@theenderdestruction2362 ... Yeah, that actually sounds better
@@J-leaf yeah
With this kind of quality from a video, I did not expect you to have under 1k subs.
the craziest and most amazing part is - all of this is open to interpretation
it do be like that for fromsoftware
It’s like they mix all the souls like games lore and make it way more confusing
I don’t think I’ll ever play Elden Ring but I live for all the lore videos. Really for any game made by FS. Great video!
hopefully we can understand wtf is going on when the DLC come out
Would've never imagined seeing the sun from the Argentinian flag in an Elden Ring video
Eldenbeast with the thicc gyatt is the last thing I expected.
with every drop of blood in my body.... i will fight for the Ice Cream Shop!!
this is the greatest lore video i've seen on this game so far
Actually marika was radagon for a long time, since the sculptor said so in gold masks questline
Good video but there were a few inaccuracies such as The Great Tree predating The Erdtree (The Great Tree is just a term for big ass trees) or The Erdtree being a parasite (It's the evolved form of The Crucible which is the origin of all life) but I do enjoy the humor lol
lol . btw the art style is top notch and the video is informative :3
Thank you Mr. Boss for this lore dump! Didn’t realise that Argentinians were the ones who colonised the Lands Between! Bravo Miyazaki
I love that idea of just taking death out of the equation, but then it’s gives reason to why we have it in the first place. Godwyn is what happens when death isn’t an option, it becomes stagnant and corrupt, like anything that lives beyond a purpose or can’t move on. God the whole Elden Ring lore is perfect.
Great video! One note, it's a common misconception but the Great Tree and Crucible weren't a part of the same being.
The Great Tree was what came first until something took it out (most likely the Greater Will), then the Crucible formed out of it through a process called "sprouting." Often seen in nature, it's a process where multiple branches sprout out of a seemingly dead stump to the point where it can become a tangled mess, and from the Great Tree the tangled mess would eventually form into the Crucible
This growth and twisting of the branches continues as the branches compete for nutrients. Before long, one branch merges as the dominant trunk, thus becoming the main body of the reemerging tree. In this case, that main branch would become the Erdtree.
Simply put, if placed on a time line it goes Great Tree -> Crucible -> Erdtree.
honestly, i thought you had at least 100k subs, this is actually amazing editing you got yourself your 800th sub remember me when u get big
Sorry, the rune Marika took from the Elden Ring was the Death rune, but the image shown is not the death rune, it is the mending rune of the Death Prince, a whole completely different rune. Just wanted to ya'll know.
🤓
Ok. Time for me to fix all the errors and missed details.
A. Rune of death is a T with black and red. The rune you drew is a mending rune, and the complete hollowbranch created when the same halfmark was cut through Godwyn's and Ranni's body.
B. The unalloyed came before the Carians. This is going to be long. When Marika took away death, it was before she fought the fire giants. This is evident because instead of fire giants dusting away, their bodies remained. Godfrey was bansihed after the last fire giant cursed Marika to become the very thing she tried to rid of, and cloned herself to create Radagon. She had 3 children, who would be Miquella, Malenia, and unexpected twist, Melina. Miquella and Malenia would become twins, but Marika had different plans for Melina. She would hold destined death after it was rid from the world. However, Melina didn't like that much, so decided to kill gods with it instead, creating an entirely new fire, and creating legions of god-slayers, called Godskin Apostles. Godskin Nobles are later decendants that forcus more on their physical dexterity than their scorching fire. Marika got scared and called Maliketh to beat Melina, which somehow worked... Anyways, then Maliketh would get the rune of death, then Marika would send Radagon to fight in Caria, but Radagon pulled the ultimate No U. He married his enemy instead. This, again, led to 3 children you already know from this video. Now, the thing that proves the unalloyed came before the carians is the fact Gloam Eyed Queen is releted to the unalloyed. She must have died in order for Maliketh to get the rune of death, and Maliketh must have the rune of death for Rykard to know Maliketh's power, and create the blasphemous Claw to counteract Maliketh. Rykard is the batman of Elden Ring.
C. The tarnished are decendants of the ancient tarnished that led the march alongside Godfrey. Everyone you meet in the Roundtable hold, had the same ancestors as you, and their family marched with Godfrey. The problem is, 5,000 years is a long time, and the tarnished kinda went everywhere after Godfrey died, which explains why you can choose from different classes of tarnished, and meet some completely different to you in the Roundtable.
D. Mohg wasn't sent to the underground. He went to the sewers as same as Morgott, but the key difference is that Morgott stayed loyal while Mohg seeked the Formless Mother. The Formless Mother would enhance Mohg's cursed blood abilities, and turn him into the lord of blood. Morgott would stay loyal, and soon become the commander of the Night's Calvary. During the shattering war, the sewers were weakened, and two of the steongest omens broke free, and went on two different paths. One followed the Formless Mother into the underground we know as Mohgwyn Palace, and another stayed behind to defend the Erdtree, who was later unofficially given the title "king".
E. Godfrey wasn't banished due to Marika. Godfrey's failure to stop the curse of the Fire Giant, him soon being blinded by Grace, and his heritage to omens were all causes of his banishement.
F. Dragon Communion is different from Dragon Cult. Dragon communion is a herisy of eating dragon hearts for their abilities, and they are mostly from younger generation of dragons, mimicing the look of wyverns. Dragon cult is from Ancient Dragons which has a scale of Gravelstone, almost impenetrable both lorewise and gamewise. Seriously, you can't kill these guys after NG+ due to their increase in immunity and resistances.
one more that is perhaps the most important is that the crucible did not create life and the erdtree did not hijack it (the crucible is explicitly referred to as the primordial erdtree)
Forget reading this lol. The whole point of this vid is to get a decent gist without watching another boring youtuber.
@@kessq8753 You make no sense, the guy is making corrections, how can you "get a decent gist" when the information is wrong?
Brother, Melina is NOT the source of the Godskins. Idk where you’re getting that. She was likely still at least involved in God-killing, via the Night of Black Knives, but her being the Gloam Eyed Queen is an insane theory that I really need to see some supporting evidence for.
Ok now someone tell us about frenzy flame because I get mad it's not mentioned even though it's such a big part of the lore
Crazy first video, really enjoyable. You should cover bloodborne
Greatest use of the narrator moaning "Ughhh, rise now," I've seen yet, congrat!
Great video! I am going to share this to my buddy. It’s not too serious, but accurate and enjoyable.
Fuck dude, ice cream shops, you freaking mad man.
This is a lot of theory to be clear, like the great tree theory stuff is built on a pretty flimsy amount of “evidence”
There was another tree during the time when the dragons held the great rune.
@@Youshallbeeatenbyme source?
@Argos_RB Farum Azula. Also it's told to us in game that the erd tree was grown in secret in the beginning of the golden order to usurp another.
It was the time when placidusax was the elden lord.
@@Youshallbeeatenbyme what do you mean by “Farum Azula”? Is there something specific in Farum Azula you are referring to? Nothing in Farum Azula refers to a great tree as far as I know, there are roots, but they are connected to trees that we can see on the island.
As far as I know, there is no text in game referring to the Erdtree explicitly “usurping” a different tree.
I know the theory, and why a lot of people believe it to be true, but it is by no means confirmed. Great tree root resin could just as well refer to the Erdtree, as it is a very great tree. As well as this the Japanese translation seems to interchangeably call the Erdtree “The Great Tree”
I’m not saying it is definitely not true, I am saying that this video seems to talk about it as if it is generally accepted, which it is not
@Argos_RB The stone slab pictures in Farum Azule have a depiction of a large tree with a different orientation for the Elden Ring. I don't remember where in game I found someone talking about the rise of the golden order, but I remember them talking about how the golden order grew a tree in secret until they were ready to confront placidusax as the Elden Lord and usurp the Elden Ring.
The roots are also another big tell that there was another erd tree... as I don't think the "great tree" was something all that different from the golden orders tree.
My head is swollen with this immense knowledge now, thanks! Now I can explain it to my buddy in poor detail whilst confusing all of the demigod children lol
ngl, that Godfrey slander was funny
You unironically understand the lore of this game better than most UA-camrs
there should be an npc you talk to and he just pulls out his phone and shows you this
Best breakdown in 10 mins I’ve seen.
The Minecraft villagers sounds are perfect
Im only liking the video but i swear to god if i find my local icecream parlor half-terrorized im gonna lose it
Thanks, that was a good video!
Though iirc there is no 'great tree' that existed before the erdtree, Vaati later apologized and said he was wrong about that, and the DLC is seemingly going for the plotline that the erdtree was created wholesale at the beginning of the golden order, and at the same time Marika became a god.
I rarely comment in UA-cam channel videos, but I have to say: your video is the best summary of Elden Ring's lore I ever seen.
great video made it way easier 2 understand lowkey forial
This was really well done. Subbed
I am 3 minutes and an I am actually surprised by how simplified this is, and how much it actually is covering
Hahahahaa i was hoping youd mention the whole thing of marika smashing rennala via radagon, she really was on those 10000 IQ big brain plays
Please leave my local ice cream shop alone. They are wonderful people.
Queen marika is the epitome of "Seduction and Betrayal"
This is great lol hilarious and simplified explanation
When we arrive the greater will is already gone , we arrive thanks to the last glimps of sanity of marika
better be on top of this DLC dude, its gonna go a long way
Radagon is Marika and Weezy is Wayne
"godfrey was a fierce tier 3 sub" better than SNL
We need a dlc lore remake of this
After watching hours of Elden Ring Lore, this is probably the most I've actually learned about this game. 😊
The "Great Tree" is a translation error. Every time it is used in the japanese texts it is referred to the Erdtree, wich was generated by the Elden Beast and its primordial stage was the Crucible.
Exactly. 大樹根 simply refers to the Erdtree's roots.
大 = big / great
樹根 = root(s), specifically of a tree and not of another type of plant
Not me watching this video while waiting for elden ring to load
Replaying the game for the sixth time, something occurred to me: If Radagon being Marika was supposed to be this big secret, and he was officially "just a champion" when he married Rennala, then why was Radahn, Rykard and Ranni considered demigods? It's not just that they had a piece of the Elden Ring, because one of the first things the Twofingers tells us is that the demigods are all children of Queen Marika.
I now understand, thank you for putting into first grader pictures for me
Great and funny video. Clearly 10 mins can only contain the very core base of the lore. I started a new playthrough with a friend and took him to plat without spoilering him too much things through the journey. Finished the game he had questions abt the lore...so I sent him the Vaati's lore playlist and he was "nah i'm not watching all that" 😐😐.
So thank you this video i guess was made right for my friend 😂❤
Thank you for simplifying , some other video’s are 3 hours long and talk in english from the 17th century
You deserve more subscribers. Great video!
Radagon was Marika’s mimic tear all along 😂
Also Marika was a woman from a line of people called Numen, aka the Black Knife Assassins' race. So that probably had an effect on her motivation to sacrifice herself to set people free from the Greater Will.
one correction is that the crucible is the erdtree and it's explicitly called as much. The Erdtree did not 'hijack' the crucible nor is it parasitising the crucible. there's also the fact that the greater will created life and divided the one great, which predates both the erdtree and the crucible. Also what you need to keep in mind is that the actions of marika and the order established by her are not the actions of the greater will, and it clearly does not care about the specifics of order (given all 3 of the mending rune endings are antithetical to the golden order and at least 2 are guided by the greater will to make their mending runes).
yeah but you find another dead erdtree directly below the erdtree and the greater will is just a stronger force(outer god) playing behind the scenes like the frenzied flame,rot god blood god, dragon god. The greater will didn't create life heck it replaced dragon lord placidusax as the elden lord. So no it's just a being that wants to do whack shit with power gained from lands between
@@rohithk1475 the dragon god is the previous consort and not comparable to the greater will or the outer gods.
The roots of the other tree are the erdtree. It's heavily implied the crucible/primordial erdtree was burned down (maybe by the godskin cult) and the erdtree we see now is a sort of incorporeal spirit.
I would also disagree with the assertion that the greater will is an outer God, it seems to be the actual God of the setting. The Outer gods all represent a natural concept, whereas the greater will is what determined the rules of reality in the first place. And according to frenzied flame and the 3 fingers (which I don't think there is any reason to doubt them on this matter) the greater will did create life by dividing the one great.
Tarnished Archeologist suggests that there was a previous Tree- that also housed the Elden Ring.
He theorises that each Age usually has its own Great Tree, and that they were periodically burned, leading to a new Tree and the next Age
He also theorises that there were competing trees. The Erdtree did ‘exist in opposition to all else’ after all.
@@rohithk1475 The greater will is not comparable with the outer gods. In japanese text outer gods are translated to "kami" which means they are a manifestation of nature. And the greater will was never mentioned to be an outer god because it is The God.
@@jannafrancis7452something that I've been thinking about with regards to the DLC trailer -- the two trees strangling each other, many have supposed that it represents the Erdtree being strangled by the deathroot, but I think it's worth considering that it may show the *Erdtree* strangling the previous great tree.
So basically we are just sent to clean up a bunch of family drama
I think the great tree preceded the crucible period during the time where placidusax was elden Lord. For some reason, that great tree was chopped up or burned down and the stem of the tree became the crucible, which is a botanical term where you graft a new plant to the old one, that's why it's a chaotic period because it's genetically unstable and that's why some were misbegotten. The erd tree finally grew up normally and that's the golden age of the tree where it was giving life sap that was collected my Marika. That's also when people were being born in the tree. The tree was later burned down, the cardinal sin, and that's why it's now a golden illusion.
Mogh was imprisoned with his brother but escaped when the elden ring was shattered
I really wish I'd found this 36 hours ago.
