The Land of Shadow is closing in, but why did Miquella go there? Is he still trying to give his half-brother, Godwyn the Golden—a "true" death? Join us for a conversation about the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Story Trailer.

In this episode, we do our best to decipher the latest story trailer for the upcoming Elden Ring DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree. WARNING: SPOILER ALERT. Like everyone else, we have so many questions about where FromSoftware is going with the story and lore of Elden Ring. Joseph and Willie speculate on everything mentioned in the trailer and what it means for the Tarnished, the Erdtree, and the Lands Between. Taylor does his best to get caught up with everything happening, lol. Will we find the Kindling Maiden's body in the Land of Shadow? Is she Messmer's sister? Did he kill her? Did Queen Marika (and the other Numen) sail to the Land of Shadow by ship? Did Mohg steal Miquella's cocoon to prevent him from using his unalloyed gold needle on the Erdtree? Regardless, we can't wait to square off against Messmer the Impaler and get our asses kicked.

Here's the full transcript for this episode.
