Ender13123: I swear these videos are hidden behind a fog door….

FaeQueenCory: That ledge IS the shrine.

It's common for Shinto and Buddhist shines for the deceased in Japan to be placed in high places in a room, often above or facing a doorway.

hoffmankspengineering2034: The ash-filled room in Enir Ilim is referred to by a nearby site of grace as the "cleansing chamber". So, cleansing by fire?

global-sequence: Oooooh love the Nanaya tidbit. The idea of wrapping herself in decorative cloth makes her go from mysterious traveler to another type of creature entirely in my mind.

alextrill5829: Bats are a simple easter egg, nothing more. Messmer has a TON of references to Dracula and vampires in general - he's called "the Impaler", is a thin pale twink, lives in imposing Shadow Keep, said keep is infested with bats, etc. Bat carvings are just one more reference to Dracula.

scifisyko: I figured the bat statues were there to mess with you, given that they’re there along with actual bats. You might attack a statue or ignore a real bat in confusion.

Nixthyo: Nanaya being a seductress and leading Midra down the frenzyflame path is very plausible. Elden Ring has a lot of ideas from Dark Souls 2. DS2 had Nashandra tricking Vendrick into stealing the Giant's treasure.

Gam3Junkie7: Vaati has supposed a very compelling theory that Nanaya was actually Shabriri, the skin-stealer, who, time and again tries to cultivate or convert a potential subject into the Lord of Frenzied Flame and Midra being a past attempt makes much sense.

samplexample: The bat statues are used irl to scare away birds bats etc from nesting or occupying the area.

Klauspetergrandel: I think Nanaya could very well be a maiden of the Three Fingers (just a theory of course)

EL-BAB: you can get the stone sheathed sword from any of the altars, on my first playthrough i found it in the ancient ruins of rauh

hobosorcerer: Red & Blue seem to be symbolic colors of the Twinbird, and of the old religion around death in the Lands Between. From the ritual branch talismans to the twinbird kite shield, and even the dual colors of the Cerulean Coast & Charos Hidden Grave nestled next to each other, I believe this is part of what the dancers are about. Live always flowing, moving, so it does not rot or become stagnant.

Zephyrbaby1: I don’t know if any one else thought this but I thought the monumental figures reminded me of the child monks from demon’s souls who keep the old one sleep.

ironfoot1938: Divine beast is one of the first bosses you encounter in the dlc, me: finds it as the third last boss.

terselanguage: Honestly, Divine Beast was my favorite fight. Mainly because of how often I found myself fighting to the rhythm of the music, like the music was actually helping me dodge and whatnot. It felt awesome.

mt2r-music: I actually noticed the divine beast healing thing on my very first try against it and I always wondered why no one is talking about that. I went into the fight with the expectation of another Malenia and funnily enough the first thing it does is heal itself.

Un4tunate12: For the dancing lion, I believe the helm still houses the spirit of the dancing lion even when you wear it, thus it takes some of your healing for itself reducing yours.
