      finlay betrayed Malenia upon taking her to the haligtree after jerren started making highly innacurate fanart of her and malenia and sending it to everyone in the lands between so as to destroy malenias image. That was not before finlay was borrowing mohgs ass cheeks and rannis hair strand to do a roast battle with bernhal, vagram, Gideon, Alexander alongside ansbach, varre, lannseax until midra was paid by patches to transform into a frenzy powered armored core. To witness the destruction, patches invited master Wilhelm, Sekiro to try out the device but Sekiro died of shock and wilheim t posed, ascending into the skies and meeting goldmask
      After the battle of aeonia, castellan of redmane castle jerren swore revenge against Malenia for driving his master Radahn insane. The heavily injured Jerren who was about to pass out watched as finlay carried Malenia out of caelid, cursing them but was helpless given finlay was ranni extremely fast. However He had a plan to destroy malenias image. He paid his former enemy Seluvis. The plan was to have Seluvis, a master of lore inaccurate fanartd draw highly lore.. inaccurate fanart of malenia and finlay which would make Malenia seem like a massive piece of shit that is only good for reproduction. Also the fanart would depict vleanrot knights looking human which is something miquella has denied since the formation of the haligtree. To depict finlay a cleanort knight looking human would just give the message that miquella is a liar and his age is a scam. Jerren hired patcehs to introduce tech so jerren could cancel Malenia online. Finlay on the way to the haligtree was kicked by patches who promised 100000000 runes to participate in a roast tournament. Finlay was loyal to Malenia but money was more important to her. Finlay with 100000000 Trina lilies from patches gave them to the unconscious Malenia to make her stay unconscious for 24h. Finlay to do the roast battle proceeded to borrow mohgs ass cheeks which mog regenerated and rannis hair which she used to make a machine gun with some of malenias skin(numen skin can graft stuff). The roast battle involved bernhal, vagram, Gideon, Alexander alongside ansbach varre, lannseax. Finlay won it after 13 hours. Patches reveals the entire roast tournament is a scam and he won't be rewarding the winner. Patches pays midra to transform onto a frenzy powered armoured core Which he uses to destroy all of limgrave. This happened because Jerren paid patches 3478494 trillion runes. Patches had Wilhelm and Sekiro shows up to try out the device and witness the destruction. Sekiro was the shocked to death by a lighting which struck him. Master Wilhelm used mods to ascend into the skies but he met goldmask and they both t posed. Patches within 4 hours distributed technology and internet to the entire lands between. Finlay returned Malenia to the haligtree. By the time she returned she realised that everyone had a lore innacurate view of her and malenia. Thinking Malenia was behind this (finlay is dumb) finlay killed malenia but not before gwyndolin shot her to death using a missile launcher. Bernhal who had used the zip glitch and ended up in the haligtree questioned why gwyndolin is here if Aldrich ate him in DS3. Patches explains that time is convoluted in the lands between. MichAl zaki shows up and beats patches to death. Patches is not surprised given the entire situation was caused by his timeline alterations. Patches lets Michael kills him. Michael undoes the events of this entire parody and patches awakes in murkwater cave in the present like nothing happened. many years ago, finlay took Malenia to the haligtree. Patches time travelled and showed up and claimed that malenia made lore.innacurate fanart of malenia and finlay. This angered finlay who decided to betray malenia. This time instead of killing Malena, malenia awoke as finlay stabbed jer she did not receive the large dosage Trina lilies who caused her to be unconscious for 24h in the erased events. Malenia killed finlay, Finlay's dying words saying that malenia will pay for that terrible faner and asked morgott to do something about it because she thought she paid morgott to protect her(she didn't she halluctanted it because she drank some of the godrick brand orange juice on the way to the haligtree). Malenia asked morgott to explain this and morgott asked hewg to do some spirit tuning on finlayz Turing finlay into a spirit summon.

    A cipher that helped me understand the bloodfiends better was Bloodborne. In BB blood alters the physiology and psychology of those who come into contact with the old blood. In BB there are many types of beasts due to the proliferation and dilution of blood. Perhaps the blood of the formless mother is more pure in the shadow lands and the bloodfiends are the result of her more direct influence.

    I mean to be fair what's stopping them from being demi-humans. I mean they are just as much creatures of the Crucible as any other horn or not. They also have the closest connection to the regular demi-humans besides no one said they couldn't have a civilization and were apart of the Hornsent's domain

    Given that horns and a heavy build show up or don't in any ER race according to whatever factors interact with Crucible influence, it's quite possible these guys were hornless Hornsent, treated by them much like Omens (horned standard humans) got treated by Team Marika. There are some large hornless slave Shadows that don't seem to be trolls: a good candidate for what these guys were originally, if the Mother of Wounds seeks out the wounded (whipped/horn-cut) dispossessed to show her Truth.
    Non-lore wise, the rat faces are probably a funny Nosferatu reference.

    So, if the tribe was subjugated, then most likely they lived in the outer dredges of typical society. Which means they most likely lived in makeshift communities. Which means they most likely lived among rats and filth. Perhaps during their transformation the Mother of Truth just transformed all life in the area rather than in an individual basis. Which created this amalgamation of life we see now.

Morgot refused and was given grace got, resurected by the Erd tree.. Maybe that is why there golden phantom of him. Also that cursed blood thing could have to do with incest.

  • @beansnrice321
    @beansnrice321 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think the existence of Mogh kinda shoots down Last Protagonist's theory that the blood rituals remove horns. I also think that the hornsent ere clearly not the only people living in the lands between when Messmer torched the place.
    One thing too, is that the curseblades do not explicitly say that they are themselves hornsent. In fact the mask of the ascetics mentions that the horns on it were attached to it to be able to invoke divinity. Implying that the curseblade wearer is not divine without the mask, thus lacking horns of their own. Even the Divine beast helm says that the horns are attached to it.
    I suspect that humanity is something that can be gained or lost and that the demi-humans are in a way partial humans. Aspiring humans if you will. Some also so incredible agility like that of the curseblades.
    So my suspicion is that the Bloodfiends are indeed corrupted demi-humans who were part of the hornsent kingdom but were not themselves hornset or more specifically they themselves lacked horns. The demi-humans even wear similar clothing.
    I think the main thing against them being demi-humans, however, is their hair. Hornsent seem to tend to have white hair, however. So it's still hard to say.
