rynlingIt looks like I have found my niche. It's always nice when a story goes well, and I'm enjoying myself so much that I want to cancel class so I can keep writing into the afternoon. I won't do this, because I'm a professional, but it sure would be lovely to spend the day working on this story.
What I'm writing is the dysfunctional romance of White Mask Varré, the first NPC you meet in Elden Ring, and the lord he serves, the demigod Mohg. Mohg is basically Satan, and he essentially lives in Horrible Blood Hell. Mohgwyn Palace is very optional and very late-game content, and the only reason you'd go down there is to punish yourself. Still, this area is cool as hell (so to speak), and it's intriguing that Varré's story stretches from the very start of the game to the very end.
The quality of Varré's voice acting shines even in a sea of stars, and he's a rather handsome lad under his mask, as game modders have demonstrated (here). Meanwhile, Mohg is... Well, he sure is (something).
Mohg is incestuously fixated on his childlike half-brother (or perhaps half-sister, what is gender??) Miquella, who is probably going to be the focus of the upcoming DLC, as suggested by the promo graphic (here). Despite this, Varré is clearly in love with Mohg, so much so that he carved the rune of his soul into his forehead.
I'm not saying that any of this is healthy; I just think there's an interesting story here.
