Elden Ring Story & Endings Explained

normal, but it's a fractured version of what it once was thanks to the destruction and all the demigods we kill in our path. Here the next three

endings

are tied to character quests and are the same ending but with slight modifications in two different locations. the era of the duskborn is from fia's questline, where we use the prince of death repair rune that she gives us at the end of her questline as a way to repair all the runes, but instead of be a normal-looking pattern, the curse mark appears. at the bottom and instead of a normal looking sky there is a gray fog cove

ring

the land, this seems to imply that the death rune is back in the ancient

ring

, which hasn't happened since before Marika's reign , which means that death will come to the lands.

Between Once More and Immortality is a thing of the past, the Blessing of Despair is the third version of this ending and is activated by completing the Dung Eater questline and using the Fallen Curse Mending Rune that leaves a considerable amount of illness in Marika's body. body, the earth once again changes, but to a brown and reddish tint and possibly implies that the dung-eater fulfilled her wish; has a dream of blessing people with a curse that starts with all the people he has desecrated and killed, then they will be reborn and he creates children who harbor his curse and those children will have their own children who will harbor that curse until they are all affected by she.

The fourth variation of this ending that we know of is the Age of Order achieved by completing Brother Corhyn and the Golden Mask. Quest line where on the body of the golden mask will be the perfect order repair rune needed to complete this ending as before. It's exactly the same ending with the same differences. This rune is of a transcendental ideology that will attempt to perfect the golden order. it is symbolized in the pattern being the same as before but with a large circle around it as for the differences the sky appears to be the same golden color but now the erd tree is golden once again our last two

endings

are different than the ones we have discussed so far, Lord of Frenzied Flame is the opposite of the other endings we just discussed, where Tarnish will become Lord of Chaos, then they burn down the Erdtree and most likely leave the lands between.

To do this you must complete the three fingers quest path which ends with the three fingers grabbing you and marking you, however depending on when you do this another cutscene will play, it is done after Melina sacrifices herself then the ending plays out normally, but if you're marked upon arrival, Melina leaves your side and promises that if you follow this path, she'll have no choice but to hunt you down now. If you choose this ending, all other endings will be locked unless you use an item called Miquella's Needle, which reverses the mark and allows you to choose the other endings again.

That's why she mentions that the part about following the current path is that we have the option to change our mind, but assuming we don't and Melina knows we're marked, a second scene will play in which Melina grabs what she sees. brags is the whistle we use to summon torrent and then promises to hunt us down. We also see that her left eye is now open and purple in color, while her right eye that used to be yellow is now discolored. This has led many to believe, including Me telling me that Melina is somehow related to Ranni in the game's

story

trailer.

Ranni is seen with her right eye closed, then her left eye open and the spirit form next to her has her left eye closed and her right eye open, but it is the same eye that is the trailer possibly telling us that these two beings are related and the only person with her left eye closed throughout the game is Melina. This could also explain why Melina seemingly appears wherever we are as the spirit form she can simply teleport away. in and out of existence, the final ending is called the Age of Stars and is available by completing the Ranni questline.

We summon Ranni from inside the Erdtree, where she then picks up and places Marikahead into her body, just as we have done in previous endings. He then goes on to make a promise to all living beings and souls that exist in the world and says that the age of the stars has begun and that the thousand-year journey under the wisdom of the moon is about to begin, possibly meaning that the People are no longer bound by the forces of a god and can act of their own will, so we become her spouse and she becomes the new ruler, but you might wonder how that was possible, since while Ronnie was a empyrean, she claimed to have despoiled him.

There's a lot to unpack with this ending and it's quite difficult to interpret given how little we really have to go on, but it seems that Ronnie wants to get the moon and stars under control again, as it's possible that this was the great ruling force of the world. before the greater will arrived. This would make sense since she wanted to separate herself from her empyrean body and since the greater will is out of the picture, this concept of empyreans. is unnecessary now, this is what leads me to my previous conclusion that the people of the world will no longer be bound by the influence of a higher power and will be able to think for themselves.

These are all the endings that we have so far called the seventh. The absolute age is still under investigation, others are also trying to find out if it is possible to have the star era end with Melina still alive just to see if anything changes since of course the growing theory is that they are related, however, At the time of making this video, none of this has gone anywhere, so we'll have to wait and see, however, as we get to the end of Elden Ring and subsequently the end of the video, the amount of

story

in the Elden Ring games Soulsborne is astronomical and we are trying to catalog it.

All of this and then repeating it in front of an audience is incredibly challenging, but I think I did a good job of providing a clear and simple timeline of events so that you all can watch any of my other videos

explained

about different games in the industry or if you prefer. Listen to a review instead of a retelling, I made some videos that look at the stories of specific games like the Bioshock series and Fallout 4 that you may enjoy, so please like the video if you like it and subscribe if you're new. Thanks as always to my returning viewers for checking out another video.

Take care everyone and goodbye.
