Th-this is my hole! It was made for me!

I decided to cancel class yesterday so I could finish the White Mask Varré story. I regret nothing.

Like Elden Ring itself, I think this story is very good, and I would recommend it to no one.

I will now alienate everyone I know by posting it online.


...As an aside, I learned from the Dark Souls podcast that Lady Tanith of the Volcano Manor is named after Tanith Lee, a fantasy writer who was extremely prolific during the 1980s. I managed to get a copy of her short fiction collection Dreams of Dark and Light from the Princeton library, and wow. Those monsters do be fucking.

I've never read any Tanith Lee but I definitely recognize the name. It's always fun to find what the inspirations for things are. (Mass Effect has a lot of ships named for various classic sci-fi, including Anne McCaffrey.)
