Everyone always talks about Miquella, but what is Miquella? It sounds goofy, but I genuinely think Miquella Is Not Real, I KNOW how it sounds, but please hear me out as I have an unhinged manic episode on Elden Ring DLC Lore Speculation! Hope you all enjoy!
We also talk on the channel about more of Elden rings lore for example: The Zamor Hero's, The Zamor ruins, Shabri , Hyetta, Irina, roundtable knight vyke,vyke the dragonspear, elden rings fell god, elden ring giant lore, fire giant lore, elden rings biggest secrets, The eternal city, edgar and the madness around the curse of the world being shattered, I also try not to stray away from fromsoftwares other games, I love them all so much, if you would like to see more lore feel free to check out the playlist link bellow explaining the lore of fromsoftwares games.
Messmer the impaler is shaping up to be one of the coolest characters in all of fromsoftware's games, he's just so badass and he just so happens to have a big connection to Miquella that everyone seems to have missed...
Fromsoftware Lore: • Fromsoftware Lore
Elden Mythos: • The elden mythos
Fromsoftware Talky (Older content) : • Fromsoftware talky
Most of the events of Elden Ring and due to the of Queen Marika the Eternal and her Demi-god offspring's, Ranni, Rykard, Radhn,
Godwyn the golden, Malenia and her scarlet rot and Miquella the unalloyed/ saint Trina,
its also theorized that Melina is the gloam eyed queen an emperyan like Ranni, Miquella an Melania.
To give you a more in-depth look at the content we do look at elden ring DLC, Elden ring dlc lore, elden ring dlc news, elden ring dlc leak, Elden ring dlc explained, elden ring, elden ring lore explained, elden ring story explained, elden ring explained, elden ring lore, Elden Ring Secrets, Elden Ring Analysis, Elden Ring Theories, Elden Ring Story Breakdown, Everything You Missed In The Elden Ring DLC Trailer ~ Linked Worlds, Demi-Gods And More, Elden Ring DLC Trailer, messmer the impaler elden ring, Elden ring miquella dlc lore.
Elden Ring is set in a dark fantasy world called the "Lands Between." The world was created by the Elden Ring, a powerful object that has been shattered, leading to chaos and turmoil. Players assume the role of the "Tarnished," a character who has been exiled and embarks on a quest to restore the Elden Ring and bring order to the world.
The game features a diverse cast of characters, including gods, giants, dragons, and other mysterious beings, each with their own motives and agendas.
Elden Ring is known for its intentionally cryptic and enigmatic storytelling style, where much of the lore is left open to interpretation and speculation. Players need to piece together clues, engage in speculative discussions with the community, and make their own interpretations to fully understand the lore of Elden Ring and its intricacies.
Elden Ring is also an action role-playing game played in a third-person perspective with gameplay focusing on combat and exploration; it features elements similar to those found in other games developed by FromSoftware, such as the Souls series, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki explained that players start with a linear opening but eventually progress to freely explore the Lands Between, including its six main areas, as well as castles, fortresses, and catacombs scattered throughout the open world map. These main areas are interconnected through a central hub that players can access later in the game's progression-similar to Firelink Shrine from Dark Souls-and are explorable using the character's mount as the main mode of transport, although a fast travel system is an available option.

No offense, not being mean, just saying and talking, but yes a lot of this is farfetched. Miquella is shown in the dlc art, the hands are hands and even with that the skin, color, nails and size r dif, the cocoon changed miquella like they do, and there's tons of eyes missing. Ranni for instance. So could be her. Honestly it all screams of volcano manor honestly. I would tie it that way. The art, building designs, the colors and more. Don't know how but just looks that way to me. Edit- I hope this didn't come off ignorantly. I mean it in no way but discussion and maybe u can even explain how I am wrong.

Emerald gecko, I was gonna edit my comment to add a compliment on you being one of the more unique theorizers and as an editor I always hate sound issues. The sound is better now, if you didnt make a change, maybe it was on my end, however I receive notifications to this video and it appears my comment is gone. LMAO. Consider the cocoon is a body being grown for Miquella after he divested himself of his body. His body may become Messmer. Pretty sure Messmer is Melina, that or Radagons father, and Marikas first born.

I think miquella will appear to us in a similar fashion to Melina in the base game: as a bodyless spirit. I think he will replace melina for us while we are in the shadow lands. This will allow players who have already lost melina in the base game to enter the dlc without missing dialogue as we would simply travel with miquella for the new content.

this makes more sense than the melina being miquella theory imo. the plot hole for me in that is the fact that we wouldnt know otherwise who the gloam eyed queen is. and i think its obvious its melina, everything adds up for her to be her. The theory presented in this video is genius and seems like the kind of literary device that FROM soft would use in their lore. The secret of Radagon being Marika could very well be foreshadowing the truth of Miquella being Messmer. It's really quite a mess to predict the DLC isnt it.

With malenia being cursed to hold the outer god of rot, maybe miquellas curse was even more similar that we thought. i always thought he kinda lucked out in comparison to his sisters curse. afterall, the gloam eyed queen shares her connections with sleep with miquella, not with melina

Both dont make any sense to me. Melina cant be Miquellas spirit alter ego form St. Trina cause Miyazaki confirmed that St. Trina would appear in the DLC and if we burn Melina in the main game she dies which would make that impossible. Miyazaki also said that there would be no changes to the main story but Melina being spirit alter ego Miquella (St. Trina) it would affect the main story quite a lot. This just completely debunks this theory. The only convincing theory to me out there about Melina is that she is/was the Gloam Eyed Queen and the DLC could finally confirm this which wouldnt affect the main story and just be additional information. It would also go hand in hand with the frenzied flame secret ending cutscene. Her being burned and bodyless is a reference to when she lost to Maliketh as the GEQ. He burned her flesh with the rune of death even leaving burn maks on her spirit self. The blade of calling is found in a secret room where she was plotting her moves as the GEQ long ago. Her leading the Godskins and going against the erdtree obviously was a cardinal sin. Marika veiled her existance as a result and this is why we never read anything about her, like Messmer. As for why Miquella cant be Messmer its simple. We literally see Miquella at the end of the DLC trailer plus Miyazaki also confirmed that we saw Miquella on the first screenshot from Shadow of the Erdtree riding torrent. Miquella is also cursed with eternal childhood. Messmer is a new character and another child of Marika most likely responsible for the first burning of the Erdtree which is why Marika veiled his existance. They even made a CE statue for Messmer, not Miquella. Also "The Impaler" wouldnt make any sense as a title for Miquella. Hes never described as a violent figure, he "weilds love to shrive clean the hearts of men".

The mark on Melina's eye seems to be a clawmark that seals it shut. It fades in the flames of frenzy, thus allowing her to realize her past connection to the Gloam Eyed Queen, whatever that may be. There are really so many details about eyes in ER that it's hard to say that two characters with eye stuff going on constitutes a tangible connection. You have to look at the specific nature of the eyes.
@theemeraldgecko310
@theemeraldgecko310 Месяц назад
100% agree, I made the connection between st Trina and the stuff in this video, because Miquella is genuinely regarded as St Trina, just thought it added a bit more evidence considering we never seen St Trinas eyes, only that she is symbolised as having one just like Messmer :)

So Messmer represents everything that is blasphemous to the golden order but the trailer also says that he burns everyone who is stripped of the grace of gold. So if Miquella is in fact Messmer then why would he grow the haligtree, a place where everyone stripped of the grace of gold could live? i don’t quit see why he would do something like that, the goals of messmer, miquella and melina just don’t really line up for me for them being the same person. But you are definitely right, the person in the cocoon looks nothing like miquella although that doesnt really have to mean anything, he doesnt really look like messmer either, apart from the limbs.

I like this theory a lot. There is some poetry in the idea that something that is adored as something divine, pure and full of light being an illusion and underneath is something dark, impure and what people believe to be rotten (but perhaps it is not truly rotten if you have an open mind), while at the same time what people believe to be "rotten" and impure may (depending on how Messmer's character arc plays out) be divine, pure and full of light underneath. It would add an interesting duality to Miquella, having this one incredibly cruel side, the impaler that led a war so terrible that it can't be put to song, and another side - perhaps his repenting self to make up for his cruel actions after the war (whether you think that's morally possible is another question) - that tries to heal and bring about positive change. Some points I thought about off the top of my head without checking the lore: - The hair of St. Trina's statue (esp. the strands winding upwards) look a lot like serpents/snakes to me - Snakes are often associated with hypnosis/ people (wrongly) believe snakes can hypnotize their prey. Hypnosis is not exactly the same as sleeping but can often lead to a similar state (or a dream-like state), esp. if you conduct a session while lying down. So perhaps this could be seen as a loose connection with St. Trina's sleep powers. - Snakes are often associated with seduction (at least in Biblical mythology) which could mirror Miquella's power to charm, bewitch and compell people, esp. if you add the hypnosis angle to it. His knights seem to be like under a spell - or as if they have been hypnotised. I don't necessarily think it means he is evil. It could even illustrate an interesting duality (again), with Messmer's snakes being dangerous, burning, and weapons (think of the snake-like strands of black flames in the sky during the war scenes) whereas Miquella's snake reference is metaphorical and is an indirect, interpersonal power as opposed to Messmer's snakes, with them being an embodiment of direct violence. - Hypnosis of snakes is often associated with looking them in the eye. This could fit both the eye on St. Trina's statue and the point that Miquella's eyes are kept such a suspicious mystery (either hidden or closed). It could either be metaphorical to emphasise the hypnosis/enchantment theme on a purely symbolic level or Miquella's power of compelling people and St. Trina's sleep powers could actually be tied to their eyes. - If you take it even further you could also draw a connection between snakes, Miquella's haligtree and the biblical story of the snake in the tree, who offered a gift of liberation to those eating its fruit of knowlege. Now there are several layers to it. Miquella is supposed to be a genius so the fruit of knowledge could be a metaphor for the powers/magic/tools etc. he passes on to the beings following him. If he also knows the truth about the world (and the possible lies surrounding it) then following him ("accepting his fruit of knowledge") could eventually lead to people being intellectually liberated from the lies of ER's world. In this context the tree with the snake can be seen as a counterforce or alternative to God/Marika: if you follow the snake you reject the latter's order and aim to live by a new order of truth and self-determination (potentially - if that is Miquella's plan, that is). I think this is why the haligtree with Miquella/"the snake" is a refuge for everything/everyone that is impure in the eyes of the golden order and provides them with an alternative opportunity at life. - In a sense you could interpret these as (very loose) Lucifer parallels. Though it does not mean that Miquella has to be bad. It could also be a subversion of the original Lucifer with him being in the "right" (as far as this is possible in ER) and God/Marika being the true oppressive force. Him divesting himself of his flesh (a culmination of his slow but steady deviation from the golden order and him forging an alternative path) could symbolise his fall. Lucifer was also said to be fair and beautiful (though in this case it might be a deception) just like Miquella, which provides a stark contrast to Messmer's look, who seems quite demonic and devilish and the setting he is presented in within the trailer appears very hellish. In the promo art he is also shown sitting on a throne in the lands of shadows, which could be an allusion to him being the "king of hell", whereas the lands between are (supposedly) heaven. I don't necessarily think Miquella (and/or Messmer) are a full-on Lucifer reference but perhaps some aspects of his story influenced Miquella's (and/or Messmer's) writing should he in fact be Messmer. Sorry, perhaps all of this is super tinfoil-hatty but it came to my mind while watching the video.

I've always been curious about how life's time is divided for Marika/Radagon. Are both always alive, coming to a consensus for every decision while in the same body? Or does one gain control internally, somehow? Or one sleeps, and the other wakes? With your theory in mind, I think "which entity was birthed" becomes the crucial question. I might argue that BOTH Radagon and Miquella weren't actually born. Rather, Marika and Messmer were the originally born entities. Imagine the life cycle of eternal youth. You probably age baby > toddler > tween > teen. Maybe Marika or Radagon, in an attempt to ward off the outer gods influence, split Messmer into two beings. Miquella, the baby/toddler. Messmer, the tween and teen. And then, either Radagon or Marika chose Miquella and banished Messmer. Perhaps, divesting Messmer in the same way Radagon was seperated from Marika while with Rennala. Perhaps, Radagon's story goes deeper. Maybe he was a "gift" to Marika by the Golden Order. Or - more likely - a stipulation to her godhood that allowed the golden order to have some amount of control over her at all times. Marika shattered the ER, Radagon attempted to mend it. "O Radagon, leal hound of the Golden Order. Thou'rt yet to become me. Thou'rt yet to become a god. Let us be shattered, both. Mine other self." We are told by the Finger Reader crones that Marika is trapped in the Erd Tree as punishment for the shattering. But none of us trust the finger readers, two fingers, or the Golden Order on anything else. Why have we trusted that Marika was ever actually jailed in the tree? Especially since we are confronted by Radagon. Maybe the "Radagon is Marika" twist is two-fold. Maybe, he was a part of Marika and isn't anymore. Maybe, instead of meeting the Gloam Eyed Queen, we meet Marika in the DLC. But idk man! Excited to find out and be proven wrong on all fronts :D Thanks for sharing!

Here's another schitzo topic that would neatly roll into this one. Marika is the Formless Mother. Hear me out. There are two "Outer Gods" related to blood. There's Formless Mother and her Mogh thing and there's the Blood Star and her connection to briars of sin. Marika we see is a bloodless corpse. If we go with the theory that Radagon is a Silver Tear similar to Asimi cut quest, we can extrapolate that he took over Marika's body, merged into her and overpowered her as she broke the Elden Ring. The Blood Star can be contacted if you blind yourself or are blinded as punishment. There are Marika(and Radagon) Soreseal and Scarseal items that clearly are eyes. So Marika is blind and could, theoretically, have seen the Blood Star. I theorize that Marika's only way to escape was to flee as blood. We see Mogh turn into a puddle of blood, perhaps she did the exact same thing. And when she did, she freed Mogh from his imprisonment and went on with her master plan. Mogh's servants lead us along the way. Varre killed our finger maiden, Bloody Finger Jerren got us to kill Radann. Oh, what a twist that would be. Mogh's whole thing was looking for a mother figure and finding it in an outer god. But what if that outer god is just his own mother posing as one, channeling Blood Star's powers.

Interesting theory, but I think that if Melena is Miquella and Mesmer it is possible only if each had their own personality, because Melena genuinely wants to make you an Elden Lord the whole game, except for Franzy Flame ending, yet Mesmer questions Marika's choice to lordship us, Tarnished, such devoid of grace. Or it might be a deliberate move by devs to lead us in the wrong direction with the trailer, and his phrase isn't related to the player character

WOW! This one was REALLY interesting! I've also heard from someone else, that it's actually MESSMER in Moghwyn Palace! Oh, "Miquella" maybe having snakes, is like Gwyndolin in Dark Souls 1! He, who was raised as a girl, due to his powers, ALSO can cast POWERFUL illusions, like the one over all of Anor Londo, making it look how it USED to! If ALL, or at least, MOST of this is true, that pretty much confirms Messmer being a Empyrean, because his power level is supposed to be INSANE in the DLC! Maybe "Miquella" took on certain aspects of Godwyn, his half-brother, who was LEADER of the Dragon Cult, which formed after he bonded with Fortissax, and his sister was Priestess of the Dragon Cult, who Roundtable Knight Vyke was STRONGLY associated with, before he screwed up, and took the Frenzied Flame! OH S%#@! I JUST thought of this, maybe THAT'S why Lansexax was in Leyndell, she first pops up in the Altus Plateau, THEN in Leyndell! You know what is also in Leyndell, locked up DEEP below it, the Chamber of the Three Fingers! This is a very loose theory, BUT, maybe she was trying to find a way to CURE Vyke of the Frenzied Flame, like Fortissax tried and failed to cure Godwyn from his Deathblight! Lansexax also failed, but is STILL around Leyndell, trying to protect others from coming into contact with the Frenzied Flame, trying to keep other Tarnished far away as possible from it! Because she didn't want the same thing that happened to Vyke, to befall to anyone else! If "Miquella" is Melina, and if "Miquella" is actually Messmer (which would explain the snake thing), like I said before, Gwyndolin, had snakes too, and was born "impure" as well, IF ALL of this is true, no wonder they waited till the DLC for this, we could be talking about a being of such UNFATHOMABLE power, it NEEDED a DLC to explain! You're not crazy, it actually would explain A LOT!

Hmm, maybe Miquella has the same or somewhat similar ability to Marika being different people at once. Melina and Messemer being his alter egos. Im thinking in the DLC these alter egos are actually "halves" of Miquella that separated to some degree. Miquella's original golden hair mirrors Marika and Messmer's red mirroring Radagon while Melina is what he uses to hide the fact that it's him. Something went awry with the transformation somewhat, probably as a side effect of Mohg taking him from the Haligtree.Miquella probably transformed into a underdeveloped Messmer in the egg as a fear-response or a defense mechanism or something and probably was in a half-dead or slumbering state during or after his kidnapping and we and Mohg mistook it as a mutation as what's in the egg looks nothing like Miquella. Mirroring the underdeveloped Messmer, Melina seems to be underdeveloped as well, confused about her identity and shit. But what she remembers is her objective as there seems to be a tunnel vision to her as this is her sole focus instead of figuring out who she is, which I think is a product of the fracturing or half-developed state of the alter ego's mind. Or Melina was another alter-ego he created at the last minute so he could achive his goals in the Lands Between without drawing unwanted attention to himself from the Golder Order and/or the Outer Gods. Her purpose in the Lands Between is probably connected to what Miquella wants to achieve within the Lands of Shadow. I also think Miquella's exploits in the Lands of Shadow drew the attention of the Formless Mother and wanted the Messmer alter ego to be more dominant, hence directing Mogh to kidnap him from the Haligtree, with this "Mohgwyn Dynasty" farce she formulated in Mohg's head so she could get what she wants. She knew what would happen with this kind of intervention. This prompted Miquella to create Melina so that wouldn't happen again. With all that in mind, I'm speculating Miquella was tapping into the profane and using or examining it for an end-goal he deems "good". This goes with Messmer having the blasphemous Blood flame and the snakes and how Melina is connected to death (having the same moveset with the Black Knife Assassins, connection to destined death with the Frenzied Flame ending etc.). His sleep in the egg was probably him trying to achieve whatever he was planning in the Lands of Shadow. Was it to merge the profane with the divine? Was he crafting some weird rune that uses both to be able to cure Malenia? I really can't say, but a combination of these factors is what Miquella would have gotten if he won and actually wasn't kidnapped and woke up in the Haligtree. But Mogh fucked it all up when he kidnapped Miquella. My guess is Miquella is now keeping the Messmer alter ego at bay in the Lands of Shadow as he could probably fully awaken in the egg and cause problems the Lands Between. I think we have a choice to let Messmer awaken in the Lands Between as a DLC ending, adding the "Age of Blood" once we become Elden Lord.

My current working theory for the pairs: Marika and radagon Ranni and Godwen (this is so crackpot but my favorite pairing for the lore implications) Miquella and st trina Mesmer and the gloam-eyed queen (also love this one) Feel free to have this idea for a video and if you want I’ll gladly walk you through how I got to these pairings for your research :)

Miquella openly welcomes the Misbegotten, the Albinuarics, and other scorned to his Haligtree, unlike his parents who openly reject, hide, and destroy any who oppose them. Marika and Radagon as a god is based on duality, a balance always divided. While Mesmer is a “true god” inviting the heretics as well as the most devout. A cut content twin blade we were going to receive from Miquella was the “Abundance and Decay Twinblade,” a weapon Im predicting we’ll see in dlc. Miyazaki also stated he included Mesmer sitting on a demigod’s throne to show he’s on equal playfield as the other gods, but I think that’s an understatement.

@@theemeraldgecko310​​⁠​⁠​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠My thoughts were that Miquella being Messmer is unlikely. This is because: 1. Messmer says in the trailer, “Those stripped of the grace of gold shall meet… the embrace of Messmer’s flame [death].” Messmer isn’t lying; this oath helps explain the Tarnished’s conflict with him. We also know that, to reach the Land of Shadow, Miquella divested himself “of all things golden.” So, if Messmer and Miquella are the same, this means that Miquella would want to kill himself? This motive makes little sense to me. 2. Your point about the cocoon-body’s hand may not be lore related. The cocoon-body is a reused model; it is Morgott’s after he is defeated in Leyndell. So, using this as evidence is saying the same about Messmer and Morgott. Admittedly, this is a weak rebuttal because Miyazaki tends to do stuff like this for good reason. 3. Melania is the “Blade of Miquella” because she fought his battles for him. Obviously, Messmer does not seem the defenceless type. 4. Messmer seems to have been in the Land of Shadow for a long time. This is evident by how the land is “set ablaze by Messmer’s Flame” and how Messmer sits on a throne overlooking the Land of Shadow in the promotional art. This does not align with Miquella divesting himself of his flesh; he wouldn’t need to if he was Messmer and he was already in the Land of Shadow. That was a bit of a rant. But, like I said, you’ve got some good points about Miquella not having red hair and Messmer having it. Something is awry, just not a double-identity imo.

100% get where you’re coming from! Firstly in regards to Messmer, I think yes although he says that I don’t think it’s 100% that clear cut, Messmer also I’m the same line says “mother would thoust lordship sanction in one so bereft of light?” Imo, I think yes he is devoid of grace but I think he still at least when it comes to us, he feels a need to get rid of us? We are lore wise sleeping with his mom and are by proxy his enemy, or maybe he has some sense of loyalty to his family and that’s why he needs to fight us? It’s hard to really say, we’ll have to wait till the dlc!!! Secondly, I honestly had no idea about the corpse being a re-used asset, that’s on me! Though like you said, fromsoftware hardly does anything for no reason, so I’m not throwing it out just yettttt Thirdly, I agree if Messmer is Miquella he could fight his own battles, but that would require him to embrace his true self to fight, imo makes a lot more sense to get someone to trust to be you’re sword, saves him having to destroy his golden lie. Fourthly, the shattering is said to have happened an eon ago, it is super duper confusing as the characters in game don’t seem to act like it’s been thousands of years, but it has. The point between the dlc and the shattering is possibly thousands upon thousands of years apart, imo that’s enough time for a land to be engulfed by Flamesssssss Sorry if this came off as rude in response, it wasn’t my intention, just wanted to try and explain my thoughts a bit better :)

Ooooooooo... idk if I started sayin it was messmer in the cocoon or not. But I have been sayin for a while now.... even down to the hand thing. There's a reason why in the dlc trailer they put emphasis on "golden miquellas" hands and arms, AND messmers hand and arms, for a reason... EVERYTHING that makes it on screen is on there for a reason... it's all meant to be there

The figure in malenia’s arena is supposed to be like a pregnant woman, not necessarily supposed to be Miquella. The cocoon is her womb. Anything is possible in ER more but I really don’t think Miquella would be gestating himself in a giant pregnant version of himself. It’s possible. But it just sounds like the least likely option.

The way I take it, we're playing inside Marika's mind and we're basically experiencing her grief. It's a very common theme in videogames, like the Hoyoverse (Genshin Impact and Star Rail) games, the Final Fantasy franchise but more importantly the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona games. In the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona games, the theme is always about overcoming death, and these stories take place in the unconscious. There are a bunch of clues that basically tell the story of who has passed away. Tarot cards represent the archetypes within the human psyche, and those are basically represented by the demi-gods. At the core of the story, we have the triquetra, which represents life (the bonds you create), death (the death of somebody you had that bond with) and rebirth (overcoming that loss and learning to move on). Trying to overcome death, creating new life and duality. As above, so below. So, there are two scenarios, but both are tied to the same idea. There was a complication with twins during a pregnancy. Either Marika is the mother or Marika is the surviving twin. We're participating in the Sophia's journey, where you don't blindly believe everything that's being told to you and how you have to experience things yourself and come to your own conclusions. The persona mask that the Marika person has been wearing, is starting to show cracks. Basically, we're learning about the loss of one of the twins, while also trying to overcome the loss of that twin. Miquella's Haligtree is a retelling of what happened to the other twin, represented by Messmer. This story also spirals through Darian & Devin, a story based on Castor and Pollux. Another in game situation that spirals that story is Rennala's situation. Rennala is basically Lena, who had twins with Tyndareus and Zeus. In Norse mythology, that story is very similar to what happened to Rind, Rindr and Rinda, but instead it's Odin and Loki. There is also an unobtainable item in Elden Ring, called the Entwining Umbilical Cord, which might explain what happened to the twin that died. In order to move on, we sometimes need to address conflicts within ourselves in order to move on, which normally happens in the unconscious. In Persona 3, we go into the unconscious to overcome the loss of the main character's parents, by dealing with this conflict in the unconscious which they call the 25th hour (sleep). In Persona 5R, it's the story of Takuto Maruki, who creates a contract with Azathoth/Adam Kadmon to remove pain and suffering from the world, trying to make what happens in the unconscious the main reality. In Final Fantasy 10, the main character goes into the unconscious to deal with the death of his father. In Star Rail, after releasing patch 2.0., they're dealing with the death of several people in the unconscious world, called Penacony. And in Genshin Impact, the story is about two twins that were separated, where one twin is looking for the other twin but hasn't processed yet that the other twin is dead. The dead twin has been replaced with something similar to a mimic tear, to deal with the pain. In that game, you're basically on the Sophia's journey to learn how to deal with the death of the sibling. It's a fake god story, the ignorant demiurge is the main character itself.

@@theemeraldgecko310 cause to me the timeline makes more sense if Messmer was around Godwynn's time and he retaliated when Marika had him killed. Could be totally bonkers crazy but I almost feel like Godwynn could have been a women and empyrean meant to be the next vassal, or Marika's lover (which brought about the omen curse in her children) and due to the sin which that implies in either case she was cursed by the greater will. I find it odd Radagon kind of just exists out of nowhere and I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow has a tie in to Godwynn or is a personification of Marika's sin given that Mohg already exemplifies well... Incest and he was a product of it potentially. Almost seems like Godfrey was cast out as if he was impure but he had nothing to do with it. Anyways to the point I believe Messmer has a close relationship to dragons as did Godwynn, potentially his brother (or sister?) and so he brought about the first burning and revolted against Marika's order for her sins. If it happened recently it seems odd we don't know about it because there is knowledge of many other blasphemous things which the Golden Order would have will to cut ties with or hide. So if Messmer is a recent thing how is he so unknown? How did the land of shadow burn in an unsung battle after the shattering? To me it sounds a lot like the unsung battle was an unsung victory and that's why Marika is essentially just a husk and seemingly only Radagon's soul even still exists in that husk. Tldr: Mequilla/Melania being Godwynn and Messmer, or Mequilla,Messmer, and Melania reborn via the amber egg as an attempt by Radagon to fix what Marika broke when Godwynn died/or Godwynn quite literally being Messmer and Mequilla having succeeded to ressurect him both make more sense to me than Mequilla being Messmer

And we are Mesmers flame looks like destined death and blood flame.

Hmm, it's more likely the player character is a mimic of Miquella The way radagon is a mimic of marika Rogier says "people want to trust you, I've seen it" The dung eater, would kill a stranger to look at him... strangely spills his life story and goals to you Torrent recognizes something about you. Finally Melina says something everyone assumes is obvious "One of his kind will surely seek the Elden ring , which may violate the golden order" The issue is She absolutely can Not be speaking of tarnished Bc the tarnished were brought back and given grace back to seek the Elden ring. Gideon confirms marika wants the tarnished to seek the Elden ring. So who is Melina speaking of?!? Someone who could succeed Or is it just a coincidence that demigods start to drop when your random tarnished arrives?!?? I enjoy your theory but there's too much of told of Miquellas ability to compel love. He sent his sister to fight Radahn , knowing she was completely outmatched It's possible that miquellas effort to create an alternative to the golden order in using godwyns death to create death root and living in death as well as the albinaurics This is life that does not require the red tree The halig tree is literally the shadow of the erdtree And maybe it didn't fail If Miquella was able to use the halig tree to move his soul before mogg took his child cursed body Then he could divest himself of his curse - leaving his body to grow without a soul , like godwyns

There was never a Miquela. The was only Melania. She is forever youthfule and was forced to house scarlet rot. How else is she not dead? Her trainer the blue dancer taught her movement counters rot. So she kept her mind and body moving even in sleep to keep her mind from roting away like what happened to Rhodan. Melenia eternal youth and endless dreaming eventualy lead her to became the god of dreams St. Trina. And so, she made everyone "dream" of Mequela. Someone not burdened by rot. Somone who is everything she is not.A Radagon is Marika senario, but this time it's Mequela is Melenia. It became such a powerful dream, it compeled others to act in her or rather his favor.So strong Melenia started to see it. Talk to it. And the dream talk back. So strong the dream of Mequela became real. And so Mequela the twin of Melenia, the god of dreams the fierced empyrian was born. Mohg's dream from St. Trina was of Mequela, a young girl in the possesion of Melenia. Not his half sister, just a dreamy girl traped inside a tree. One whom he could mary and bare children with. Messmer I'd say is forcefully forgotten akin to Gwyn's 1st born. Cursed with flame or some shit

maybe it's confirmation bias but I think this is a solid theory and a fresh angle. Thank you for this manic rant session. Melania is the figurehead for the home base. She's a warrior not an empyrean. This could all be in Miquellas plan but if he's to come back then he'll still need his tree to fight the erd tree. Honestly I think the Ranni plan with Godwyn was a mutual plan. You have to remember all the children were on a council at one point and then war broke out. I think Ranni, Godwyn, and Miquella wanted to overthrow the golden order in some way so they devised the night of the black knives. We know the shadow of the urdtree is where Merica originally sprouted her urdtree. If Mesmer is Miquella then it would makes sense with your theory for a new way to lock up her childrens curses. Mohg and Morgott were locked away but that wouldn't due. Instead she hides them behind a veil. Miquella could have turned into Mesmer and we are to follow him, kill him and let Miquella be reborn into the lands between? Either way if Miquella wants to create his own Urdtree then He'll need a city and military around it for when he comes back. Very Berserk tbh. It doesn't help the Griffith accusations
