Elden Ring ‘s Fia the Deathbed Companion’s questline is one that is wrapped in secrecy from the start. The NPC who grants the player a blessing with each of her embraces asks the player if she could return a weathered dagger to its owner, and this small, seemingly innocent act feels like an easy way to repay her. However, the handing of this dagger to D then catapults Fia, Rogier, and D into a series of situations that results in all of their dea
Though most of these dragons have unique names, a majority of them will fight in the exact same way (and players can thus punish this by attacking their hind legs). However, Lichdragon Fortissax and Dragonlord Placidusax provide interesting battle experiences. Fortissax’s lighting makes him very different to stand beneath, and Placidusax’s transporting, weapon, and two-headed build make him an entirely unique character who even has his own remembra
In the Games Radar+ interview, he says that there were “a lot of different works that influenced the creative process.” A couple being ” The Lord Of The Rings , The Eternal Champion series of novels by Michael Moorcock.” For fantasy buffs, the former comes as no surprise since Tolkien is commonly regarded as the father of modern fantasy storytell
To understand why it is likely that Radahn was protecting the Lands Between from celestial beings, one first must know the Nox’s and Ranni’s goals with the Dark Moon . Ranni asks the Tarnished to defeat Radahn specifically to gain entrance to Nokron, one of the Eternal Cities of the Nox, to obtain the Fingerslayer Blade. This fetish is described as proof of the Nox’s blasphemy against the Golden Order, showing that they, like Ranni, wish to fight against the Greater W
In his hellish boss room, Rykard appears as a scaled face protruding from the side of the serpent’s belly, urging the player to ” join the Serpent King as family ” so they might together ” devour the very gods .” The description of the Remembrance players gain from Rykard’s death provide more context for his statem
Many players will be recruited into Elden Ring ‘s Volcano Manor society after encountering Rya, a hunched over, suspicious-looking woman who will teleport players directly to the red-lit halls of the Volcano Manor estate itself. After two completed assassination quests, Rya strangely becomes a lot more friendly and trustworthy after revealing her true form and identity – a humanoid shawl-wearing serpent named Zorayas. Zorayas proudly expresses the belief that she’s the daughter of Tanith, the leader of Volcano Manor, “born by the grace of a glorious king.” If the player talks to the gold-masked Tanith, however, the Volcano Manor’s head will refer to herself as Zorayas’ “adoptive mother” and laments how she “hardly deserves the sweet child.” Later on in Zorayas or Rya’s complete questline, she tells the player about a strange sight she saw – a slithering serpent figure just like her who wandered into a side room and never came
With this information about the Eternal Cities and Ranni in mind, Radahn’s reason behind stopping the stars’ movements can be illuminated. While it is not clear whether Radahn had a personal vendetta against his sister, what is clear is that he had a concern about celestial beings crashing into the Lands Between. He was even willing to learn the gravity magic of these creatures to prevent more of them from coming, which is confirmed by the immediate impact of a meteor in Limgrave after his death and the presence of an Alabaster Lord near the crash site in the Weeping Peninsula. Consequently, Radahn was also willing to stand in his sister and mother’s way by stopping the movements of the st
But the most significant connection between Ranni and the Nox is the Dark Moon. The Moon of Nokstella talisman explains that the Nox worshipped this moon because it guided the stars. Ranni’s unique spell Ranni’s Dark Moon explains that she discovered this sorcery as young child and that it was ” cold, dark and veiled in occult mystery .” This occult mystery is likely related to the Nox people and their Eternal Cities, as they were sealed away beneath the ground long ago. Thus, the Moon of Nokstella and the Dark Moon are likely one in the same, and Ranni’s Age of Stars ending to Elden Ring is likely what the Nox would have done if they successfully defeated the Golden Or
This hint from Zorayas will lead players to a room in the Volcano Manor with an illusory wall, and In-Game Easter Eggs from there to a secret passageway players can use to traverse the inner depths of Elden Ring ‘s Volcano Manor area. Among the many enemies players can encounter here are Man-Serpents shaped just like Zorayas, proof that her existence isn’t as unique as she’d first believed. If the players discover and give Zorayas a “Serpent’s Amnion” key item, the soft-spoken serpent-woman will discover the awful truth: She and her ilk were not born from Volcano Manor’s Tanith, Rykard, or a “glorious king,” but from the hideous rituals of a demented madwoman. Crushed by this revelation, she asks the player character to kill her, though the pitying Tanith will offer players an alternative in the form of a Tonic Of Forgetfuln
