Miquelle's Body in Elden Ring: Erdtree Shadow
Delving deeper into the game's mythology, the much awaited DLC Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree offers players fresh understanding of the motives and events of dear characters. Still, it also begs interesting questions that would thrill fans for solutions. One such mystery revolves on Miquella's physical presence in the Land Of Shadow.
The enigma of Miquella's body in the Land of Shadow
Although the game shows that Miquella's original body is within the cocoon taken by Mohg, it's not clear how he gets a physical form in the Land Of Shadow. This begs problems regarding the character of the Land of Shadow and its relationship to the Lands Between. Though the Land of Shadow seems to be a different world, our knowledge of these two realms is challenged by Miquella's physical body and traces of his actions there.
Miquella's Journey toward Godhood
Mirroring his mother, Marika, Shadow of the Erdtree centers on Miquella's quest of godliness. He sees himself establishing an Age of Compassion to replace the Golden Order and reigning more compassionately than Marika. He aims to reach this by cutting links with the Golden Order and even renouncing his split identity, St. Trina.
Physical bodies' significance in Elden Ring
Physical bodies are clearly important in Elden Ring; Ranni kills her original body, Godrick grafts limbs onto himself, and Godwyn's soulless body changes into the Prince of Death. Then, it's perplexing how Miquella can be in the Land of Shadow and leave behind physical aspects of himself. Miquella's Crosses, where players can locate bits of his body, attest to his physical presence.
Likely Reasons for Miquella's Physical Appearance in the Land of Shadow
Miquella's physical body existing in the Land of Shadow raises a difficult conundrum. There are several ways one could investigate to explain this unique circumstances:
Miquella's Cocoon and Shadowland's Land
Though the Tarnished is told Miquella lives in the cocoon at Mohgwyn Palace, there is no hard proof. Given Miquella's manipulative character, one should not accept the information about his intentions and actions at face value. < He might have guided someone else to occupy the cocoon, so following another road to the Land of Shadow.
The Land of Shadow's Secrets
Secrets about the laws of physics and the nature of bodies could lie in the Land of Shadow. The reality of the Land of Shadow might be different from the Lands Between, allowing for situations like Miquella possessing a body there although being in the cocoon. This implies that there has to be investigated a secret link between these worlds.
ramifications for Elden Ring's future
The unresolved issue regarding Miquella's body in the Land of Shadow creates opportunities for next Elden Ring developments. The DLC might go deeper into the Land of Shadow, exposing its secrets and connections to the Lands Between. It might also clarify Miquella's motivations and the actual importance of his path toward godhood.
Finally
Miquella's presence in the Land of Shadow is still unknown, thus players start to wonder about the nature of the Land of Shadow and the truthfulness of the material on Miquella's activities. The DLC provides a window into a new world of lore and unresolved questions, but the secrets of Elden Ring are clearly far from entirely revealed. Players' path across the Land of Shadow may reveal solutions that solve the riddles around Miquella and the universe of Elden Ring.
