Elden Ring AMV - Cast No Shadow

For the second anniversary of Shadow of the Erdtree, a small homage to Elden Ring, and all the worlds and stories of FromSoftware which continue to fascinate and inspire.

When comes the next story, let us go together.

@scadutree Goodness, I truly adore the soulsborne series' commitment to forming a narratively-unconnected but thematically-interlinked anthology.

@_7albi Albi I must for once begrudgingly protest your take, John Duskbloods is very handsome and cool and I am certainly not biased by either my affinity for men whose hair covers their eyes nor by the fact that he looks strikingly like my decade-old Bloodborne Hunter.

遅くなりましたが、1年前に見たあの追憶の衝撃のままに描いたものを完成させることができました
ナイトレインに出会えて良かった、執行者に出会えて良かった！

@bunnytangereen Precisely. And a fundamentally similar mindset to conservatives' desire for menial/undesirable jobs to exist, for the labor and service to be performed, but for it to not provide a living wage, such that they can hold themselves as superior to a perpetual, miserable underclass.

@AmcerberusI @TendoZhenshi Radahn's autonomy wasn't stripped. It's logistically impossible for him to have been charmed, and there would have been no reason, as he only benefits from their vow.

The horrific prospect is an age ruled by a warlord with the divine authority of a naive god blinded to reality.

[Ivory Branch @IvoryBranchYore]

@Invinium @empyrealviolet Fair, I had forgotten that line.

Though, taking "youth" as a quality embodied, wouldn't you say Freyja is more a kindred spirit to Radahn than Jerren, and thus would understand him more truly?

I also feel Jerren and Iji both are textually implied to be poor judges of character.

[Ivory Branch @IvoryBranchYore]

@fromsoftserve Truly; I even agree with that person's criticisms, but tacking such unprompted hate onto another person's earnest appreciation really is just rude and uncalled for.

I may not love DS2, but folks who do should get to without being harangued on why they shouldn't.

[Ivory Branch @IvoryBranchYore]

@DarkSunConsort Yes!! Oh, I've only seen this idea elsewhere the first time I saw the reasoning for it, but there is so much evidence! Thematic throughlines and name etymology and just very direct connections!

and after all, it is Dark Souls, of course the plot traces back to Gwyndolin haha
