You're spot on with the Bloodborne part. At first, they thought the blood was safe, until it began to mutate everyone into horrific monsters. Meanwhile a lot of people from the holy church wanted to enlighten themselves and become on the same level as Cosmic Great Ones/Gods. Some of this did this through planting eyes on their brains, while others relied on mutation and experimentation. Either way, very few were actually on the right path.



As for the Dark Souls Lore... Not sure how long ago it was that you watched Vaatividya's video's because the lore you gave was... inaccurate.

Allow me to clarify to the best of my abilities and without typing a whole bloody essay for you.



In the beginning, there was only the age of ancient dragons in a gray land with ancient archstone surrounding the land. But then the first flame ignited and the first soul split apart into different beings. A God Soul for the being that would be named Gwyn, lord of light and gods. A Death Soul for Nitto, who would seek to only bring death to life. And a Life Soul to she would become the Witch of Izalith. But there was a fourth soul, the Dark Soul that would go to the Pygmy's, who would become the progenitor's of humanity, slowly rising from the dark underground.

Meanwhile, Gwyn grew tired of the age of gray and hatched a plan with the other soul carriers to tear down the ancient stone dragons and bring forth an age of fire. Their success was owed to a dragon named Seath, who was born blind, hideous and without eternal scales, and as such was bullied by the other dragons. Angered and oppressed, he taught Gwyn the secret to destroying the dragons, which was lightning to destroy their scales, and allow a killing Blow. So with Gwyn's lightning and trusty knights and dragonslayers, and the power of Nitto's deathly touch, the ancient dragons were nearly extinct, and an age of light was brought. An age where the Gods ruled, and humans flourished while dragons were thought gone.

However, Gwyn soon learned that his age of Fire wouldn't last, because the first flame was fading, and when it did, the age of dark would flourish. Desperate, he ordered the Witch of Izalith to use her light soul to create a second fire. But something went horribly wrong, and instead the Pyromancy flame was born, and from it, terrible demons would consume old Izalith. Further more, Nito refused to get involved as he didn't care, Seath went insane after his copious experiments to try and gain immortal scales, and in Old Londo (the first land of the gods) the Abyss sprouted and consumed from Oolacile now to Old Londo, and the Four Pygmy Kings accepted the power of Life drain from the Dark Primordial Serpent Kaathe.

Meanwhile, all but Gwyn's Feminine son left Anor Londo, abandoning their fleeting age of Fire, as did Dragonslayer Ornstein, who went in search of Gwyn's first born. A god of war who was exiled and expunged from history since he sided with the dragons. Ornstein was the student and friend of the Nameless King though, and wanted to reunite with his old master.

Desperate again, Gwyn sacrificed humans to the fire by inflicting the hollow curse, and ultimately succumbed himself, kindling the flame with his own humanity. That's where the Chosen Undead comes in, guided by the lying Serpent Fraampt, they'd give the ancient souls of Nito, Seath, the Four Kings and the Witch to a Lord Vessel to enter the First Kiln of the Fire, slay Gwyn and sacrifice themselves, unknowing to the fact that they cannot stop the innevitable fade of the fire.

In Dark Souls 2, our character is yet again urged rekindle the fire and continue the age of fire. However, we discover that the Father of the Abyss, Manus, despite falling to the Chosen Undead in Oolacile, split and became the four daughters of darkness. So we slay them, ending with Nashandra who manipulated King Vendrick to consume as much power as she could, so that she could bring the age of dark like her father sought. But of course, we slay her and the other two evil sisters, taking the four crowns and becoming a powerful undead. As for Aldia, he performed his experiments to discover the ancient power of the dragons, and in doing so discovered what the first sin was. The sin was Gwyn and his efforts to prolong the age of fire. Gwyn tried to defy the course of nature, and as such created the curse and doomed the world to despair.

Finally, in Dark Souls 3, the Ashen One rises. Unkindled Ash, unworthy to be cinder. We're awoken to rekindle the fire. Five Lords were supposed to do this, but four of them refused, so it's our job to find them, kill them and deliver their ashes to the kiln, and then ultimately kindle the flame ourselves... but there's a problem. If we do this, we realize that the flame has lost so much of its strength, you could sacrifice a hundred Ashen Ones, the fire won't survive. So instead, the Ashen One chooses 1 of 2 canon endings.

We can either convince the Fire Keeper to snuff the fire and let the age of dark finally come. OR we can consume the fire and become the lord of Hollow's, assume our place as lord of Londo, embrace the curse and lead a new age.



At the end of it, the course of nature couldn't be stopped, despite all the power and sacrifice of greedy gods and foolish humans. But all of this is the fault of a being who wanted to erase his enemies from history. He tried so hard to erase what he hated and to make his reign eternal. But as his First Born shows us, War isn't meant to be waged to erase our enemies, but to fight for what we believe in...



Hope you enjoyed my synopsis of Dark Souls's story.
