    At 12:13 me and my buddy noticed that the banners on the wall behind the knight and tarnished seem to have a combination of the omen twins runes on it. It looks like there are 2 figures facing each other on each side. Plus the line through the middle is whole and Mohg and Morgotts runes seem to connect like puzzle pieces. Perhaps this castle was built to worship the omen before the crucible and all related to is were cast out of the golden order. Perhaps a Great Rune of the Divine Twins? Twins?

    They're repositioning lava for purposes of war, maybe creating more burning giant "strawmen', maybe zoning purposes a.i. making areas unaccessible with lava, filling pots full of lava (alexander could survive it withouth cracking) and giving them to trolls to throw at people similar to the glintstone pot slinging troll near gowrys shack

    12:19 Architecture looks a lot similar to what Fortified Manor's looks like in Leyendel and that was supposed to be for Godfrey and his Crucible knights I think? It's also the original roundtable hold thing so yeah maybe a connection there.

    If you look at the scene in the trailer with that big weird column that is sucking up lava it looks like the player character is holding a smaller version of the red spear that pierces Marika. It looked like they were holding it in the offhand so it might be a catalyst.

    Unhinged theory time : I think that when we see Miquella lifting his hand towards the tree...Maybe it's not the end of the dlc but a cutscene showing what he did to make the tree flow with sap again. If he's been in this world since before the events of the main game maybe he's been there for a very long time. In some cut content we learn that he is associated abondance. I could see him arriving in the land of shadow, see the decrepit tree and bring it back to life. Then hiding the land with at veil to make sure nobody disturbs his plans ? Maybe the screenshot from a year ago is accurate and is how the land of shadows looked before Miquella arrived there, how Marika left it. Anyway, thanks if you read this crazy speculation.
    Edit : I realized that we already see the sap dripping from the tree in the original screenshot so maybe Miquella didn’t “bring it back to life”.

    At 24:53, i dont think i've heard anyone say this yet, but might it be possible that this thing is somehow related to the cemetery shade? i believe it was vaati (or perhaps ziostorm, i cant remember) pointed out in a video that the cemetery shades appeared to be corpses piloted by a headcrab-like parasite, and the close up of it is quite reminiscent of this boss

    I'm calling the guy getting kicked in the face the "crucible knight's cavalry" because he's holding the twinblade that has the crucible wings AoW seen later. Another one of these dudes can be seen riding a horse in another art and they look very cavalry-esque.

  • @nickperri6571
    @nickperri6571 3 месяца назад

    bro take a closer look at the "hippo". Its a rune bear turning into a dragon. Go frame by frame. 23:39 has a good shot of it standing up. It is the furry body of a bear with a disproportionate dragon head and dragon claws for paws. I think it is either a similar curse to what happened to the magma wyrms, causing the bears to mutate, and allowing us to get dragon communion incantations from killing them. It's kinda like the rune bear in the demo that dropped a dragon heart. maybe there will be several bear-dragon hybrids with different features. Imagine a flying runebear with wings. Or maybe it is some kind of grafted bear dragon abomination.

      So when Mohg grabs it and says "Dearest Miquella", should we assume he knows that the arm is a teleporter to the Shadow Land? Then, how do you explain that shot in the intro of Mohg taking Miquella? And why would Messmer be in a cocoon in the Haligtree? The Haligtree is Miquella's project, supposedly grown from his own blood.

      Him saying “touch the arm” is meant to symbolise his possible godhood ascension. He needs a material body no more. His spirit is cut from his body, almost as if he sees them as two separate things now. Now all he needs is the tarnished to do something that is, currently, unknown to us

    Other dark souls games imply that life forms devolved from dragons. The dragons like greyoll, adula, ect., devolve from the dragons like fortisax, placidusax, ect., maybe the runebears further degenerate from the lesser dragons, rather than turn into them.

    Screw it, i'll throw an unhinged theory.
    messmer is radagon's dad, and that's where radagon gets his hair from, not the other way around.🗿
    He and godfrey slayed the giants together and they were banished together too. Radagon being a faith dog hated his dad and the hair he inherited from him (which is probably a curse from all those giants his dad impaled) and decided to be the faithiest fundamentalist dog around.
    Then merged with marika or something idk😂
