[Text ID: “you will wound my flesh with your teeth, / you will settle into the fervor of my yearning / to choke its sense of urgency.”]

Marika - Dear Marika... - Was your vision for a perfect world just as thee intended?

The amount of times I've changed my character in game lol.

Mother...

Was this thy unholy design?...

Messmer's tone change hurt my soul.

Miquella's Cross... - *contains spoilers*

As me and my friends are going through the dlc story -

We came to the conclusion that the crosses represent Miquella discarding his humanity.

example of the cross we found here :

There is a spirit whom you can speak to here :

Once the Great golden door seal is broken to this place- the npcs' offer interesting dialogue.

Some regard him as he was, while others are afraid even so much regarding his charm as a truly monstrous thing to do while seeming completely true and good natured.

This got me to think of Melania - was she charmed as well? to be the ever faithful swords woman of a brother who seemed to keep her oblivious to his plan? did she know of the shadow realm?

I made the call that Miquella will lead us to help him and eventually turn against us before the dlc dropped. Pieces are moving.

We are not the lord he is waiting for.

You... are a fool..

Daughter of Marika

 "My purpose was given to me by my mother. But now, I act of my own volition. I have set my heart upon the world that I would have. Regardless of my mother's designs."
