FUN FACT! When you get King’s Bramis health low enough he will stop attacking you and start slowly crawling towards the queens statue. His health will continue to dwindle, allowing himself to bleed out and die.

Damn, I had no idea this game's lore was so well written. Shame so many people wrote it off as a Dark Souls clone. May have to give this a try.

Ive been following you for a while from your MTG lore videos. I gotta say that when it comes to Lords of the Fallen, you are Vaatividya quality. I personally believe LOTF is a FANTASTIC game and that these lore videos will age very well. Keep em' coming.

Thank you! This lore series is an absolute masterpiece.

Great Video. Was wondering why Fitzroy was interested in Rhogar artifacts at Calrath marketplace. Initially thought he was trying to acquire power to push back the encroaching Hallowed Sentinels.

To me, the story of Sophesia, Bramis and their child was the most fascinating, beautiful and tragic puzzle of the entire game. Thank you so much for this video! But I do believe the veiled woman wearing a spiked crown and breaking the seal holding Adyr in the cinematic trailer is in fact Judge Cleric, as that's exactly how her corrupted boss version looks like in the game. Not sure what kind of "deal" Sophesia made with Adyr, but it's clear that Bramis became way more corrupted than her, in the end.

Your lore videos on Lords is a blessing. Appreciate the time and effort you guys have done for the game. Hope you guys keep uploading Lords lore as long as there’s lore to discuss that is. Hopefully if there’s a DLC you guys cover that as well 👍🏼

God, idk if anyone else ever thinks about this, but damn do soulslike games make me want a whole damn tv series or movies made about them to flesh out pretty much what you have portrayed here in this video. Absolutely amazing job with deciphering the lore and breaking it down like you have in these videos, cannot thank you enough!

The lore of this game is so good. Very thankful for your covering of it.

As soon as I saw the title it all came together. What a genius video name.

Very powerful love story, cursed to end in a horrible way unfortunately. Despite being besieged by the machinations of Adyr and the paranoia of the Sentinels, the love between these people endured. Excellent video 👏👏👏

PS. I love it that motherhood is a permeating theme of the game. Failed mothers who crave some sort of peace or vengeance, in fact. Sophesia, the Putrid Mother, the pregnant monsters of Umbral, the Cleric Judge as a holy mother figure. While the fathers are brutal, dominating figures - Adyr, Bramis, the Mendacious Visage etc (well, Adyr is both, in fact, as his face is half feminine).

I still believe in Adyr as the best ending but yeah there was some dark stuff here. Orin is still orbitally blasting the innocent though lol

Dude, every video you make gets me like "wooooaaaahhh!!!!" You truly are amazing in what you do! Thank you!!!

Amazing work! Was really looking for an in-depth explanation for the story around this, you really are the vaati of lords of the fallen! :)

Phenomenal video. I had reached the same conclusion but was missing a couple of key pieces you presented, and so well put together paints an immensely sorrowful picture. This game has a way of punching you in the gut in so many ways; sometimes extravagant, sometimes subtle. Subscribed!

I was hoping for this one

Damnit these lore videos are too damn good! Side note: I honestly had no idea the Queen was an optional boss...so cue "The more you know" rainbow for me. Wonderful video as always! Really looking forward to the rest of these! Full disclaimer, I haven't looked at all the videos of your channel other than the LOTF lore vids, but are you guys covering or will cover Lies of P and other souls-like? Or even the Souls series?

Great work and narration , keep it up , myself would like to see a series about Hellpoint lore ,but that is just me ...

Great lore video, thank you for your amazing work!

Yessss you hero! Thank you

I felt like this game was so well written. The lore was fantastic. It doesn’t get the love it deserves

Glad to see my general assumptions were correct) thank you for great video! Also, as I inderstood, rogar curse affects many infants in the same way, based on cinematic, where multiple progenies walk towards Mournstead

Please keep making LOFT lore videos! I personally want to know the story but am too lazy to do all the work you’re doing 🙏🏻 good work keep it up!

Yes, this is awesome. Thanks for doin this.

I always thought the Judge Cleric herself was responsible for the corruption of the beacons, since her mind sort of breaks and she offers a piece of her flesh at the beacon she was guarding.

Awesome video, like always!!!

A video worthy of vaati quality. Well done

God I love your lotf lore!

Great content, keep it up :)

Really great video man, I did her quest, and only picked up half of what you just explained lol

Thank you for this!

Awesome video, i love the game and im loving this series of lore videos, thanks🎉🎉🎉

I love these so much, thank you! What can we expect the next 3 videos' lore to be about?👀

Very good lore telling. This game's lore is so rich and facinating. I am halfway through the platinum on ps5

Poor Sophesia, after everything she only wanted her child back. Adyr should reward her with her new child, maybe of both Adyr and the queen.

Excellent Lore and brilliant Telling 👌

Thank youuuuuu!!!

Could it be that Sophesia’s bargain with Adyr had more to do with her pregnancy than saving the kingdom? Thus explaining why the child could have become such a horrible monster? There has to be something more about Edivar’s transformation into that fire giant. All the items you have to bring to her are related to Edivar, it’s clear that what she did to him is the primary source of her trauma and “madness”, I think more so than Adyr’s influence.

Great story and the best part is that a casual like me was able to piece it together by her quest. I wish soul games made quest more easy to follow

Para bens pelo seu conteúdos estou gostando não só o jogo mas as lores que tem postado no youtube

This game is so immaculate and surprising! I've been enjoying it so much!

I love this series! I would love to share some of my theories as well!

The Road to Hell is paved with good Intentions... What a horrible Fate for these good People...

Random shot in the dark here, but "Fitzroy" means "Son of the King". I wonder if he's an illegitimate half-brother to the current King. I don't know what to do with that theory, but it's an interesting choice of name, and he seems to have plenty of influence in the kingdom

This is sick 🔥 🗡️ 🔥 🗡️ 🔥 🗡️

How come you can see all the figures of a stigma? I activate them and I have to pan my camera just to see an elbow... 😢

After going through an interview another creator had with the lead creative director, Cesar Virtosu, it might actually be that the queen was not at all communicating with Adyr as she assumed. It is merely thought that the whispers from the ground are Adyr's because it's a common belief that the colossal hand is actually part of the god's physical form while the rest of the body is buried beneath the ground. Here is the aforementioned part of the interview. "So the queen of Mournstead, in her desire to have children...she is the woman that you see [in the cinematic] listening to the whispers; she's the queen of Mournstead, and she heard Adyr's whispers and voice in that cave. You can go to that cave and hear whispers. Is it Adyr who speaks from the bowels of the earth? You don't know. There is a lot of environmental storytelling." With the whole reason behind the construction of the Skyrest Bridge being to separate the dead from the ground, the whispers that drove the miners mad and the umbral's influence coming from deep underground, we can safely assume the whispers were not Adyr's but some umbral creature or the putrid mother herself.

Thank you very much, i wondered if Sundered Monarch is king Bramis but now i understand, maybe you can do a lore of Andreas of Ebb and Tancred, Tancred is very cool boss fight and Andreas is interesting character, pity he is minor antagonist.

Does anyone know how long this whole thing was going on? From normal time to this state before main char goes to the mission.

The stuff about adyr and orius seemed pretty well fleshed out in the games storytelling. The thing that seems confusing to me is where the umbral ties in. It seems like just coincidence that all of this is built over a giant shrine sealing away an eldritch horror. Why a third faction is able to craft lanterns harnessing the power of something way worse than adyr to fight against him... Both the radiant and infeno aligned factions seem totally aware of it and not really caring much more than the mentions of adyr being wary of the lightreaper The wayfarer seems like he was meant to give insight about it but he never really says anything more than the obvious
