The throne room of Shadow Keep holds its breath. Messmer stands before a narrow window, gazing into the misty expanses of Scadu Altus. He waits for the Tarnished, destined by fate to arrive after destroying the Golden Order above. Commander Gaius has been sent to retrieve this champion; their fate is uncertain. Messmer envisions a new order, one where he rises as a God to honor his mother, Marika. He sees you not as an enemy, but as a consort, a fellow Elden Lord to rule beside him, correcting the abandonment he once suffered.
