Imma need to get an Elden Ring theory off my chest.

You remember that one fight against the two omens on the bridge to the divine tower, where suddenly everything goes black?

THAT FIGHT IS INSIDE THE VEIL.

[–] Iapar@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Which veil? Shadow land veil?

But yeah this fight is so... Out of place? I mean those are just two Standarte omens as a boss fight? And no other boss does something like the port to black.

Always thought there must be more to it.

Also is there an active elden ring lore community on Lemmy?

Yep, I'm 99% sure that they are somehow pulling us into the veil that separates TLB from TSL. Maybe they are stuck there?

It would be one thing if it were just some random enemies, but it's specifically Omen, and I'm pretty sure the location lines up well with where the veil should be. Miquella needed Mohg's Omen blood to cross into TSL (and to allow his followers to cross). That can't be a coincidence!

Sadly doesn't seem like such a community exists yet. I'd love one, but I'm bad at promoting that stuff (see my Invincible community). If you'd like to participate, I'll gladly open one up!

Interesting. I try to participate but I can't promise anything.

But maybe thats a good reason to talk about a few things that are on my mind about the game.

No pressure, come around when you feel like it!

I know I would love to join that community! I'm still unfamiliar with most of the story, but I'd be psyched to join!

Siiiiick! I'm still putting off doing the thing in my first playthrough, but I hope to be able to participate soon!

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Awesome, I'll set it up later and send you a message!

And don't worry about the story - I've been trying to decipher it since release, and probably have a good grasp on 5%. Really hoping Nightreign will fill in some holes :D

I opened the community up if you're interested: !eldenringlore@lemmy.world

That fight is an illusion made by Morgott; it takes place entirely in your own mind. Similar to the illusion of fighting Renalla in her second phase (it's not actually Renalla but Rani disguised as her). Or the illusory version of Morgott just outside the capital walls.
