![]() ![]() Some enemies come in a ghostly form that cannot be harmed by the player’s weapons, while others sneak up behind the player for a backstab while they they try to open a chest. Enemies come in a wider variety than any of the areas we’ve seen before, and are unforgiving-even outnumbering the player ten-to-one in some cases. Blizzards obscure the player’s vision of their surrounding area, a creepy voice warns the player to turn back after they overcome each new obstacle, and enemies and treasures lay buried beneath ice, only uncovered once the player can thaw the area out. The Crown of the Ivory King stands out as the strongest of the chapters in the Lost Crowns Trilogy (which were already largely more fun than the vanilla Dark Souls 2 game), in what I would consider to be the most challenging Dark Souls experience yet.Įleum Loyce is vastly different from any of the areas we’ve visited in a Dark Souls game. The conclusion takes place in Eleum Loyce, a frigid, frozen wasteland with enemies hiding around every corner. Never has this been more true than with the final chapter of the Dark Souls 2 Crown of the Lost Kings DLC trilogy, The Crown of the Ivory King. Whether you’re exploring dark crypts, forgotten kingdoms, or overgrown forests, the unpredictable and terrifying environment is central to the Dark Souls experience. Either the firstborn wasn't immediately expelled or returned to pay final respects, implying some remaining sentiment.The main character in the Dark Souls series has always been the world itself. However, it is known that the firstborn left the Sunlight Blade upon Gwyn's honorary coffin in Anor Londo, perhaps as a final farewell, which could only mean that Gwyn had already departed for the Kiln of the First Flame. However, it is unknown if the Nameless King allied with the dragons only after his expulsion or was ostracized because of it. Given how the firstborn only had respect for arms, it's possible that he chose to ally with the dragons, believing them to be strong or perhaps because he disagreed with Gwyn's methods hence why Gwyn would expunge him from history. The Nameless King sacrificed everything to ally with the ancient dragons, whom he once fought. Long ago, the Nameless King was a god of war and heir to lightning.The firstborn was a god of war, and inherited sunlight, which manifests as lightning. The Nameless King wielded the Dragonslayer Swordspear, a weapon from the Age of Gods. The firstborn similarly wielded a great spear. The firstborn eventually committed a grave error in the eyes of Anor Londo and his father, which led to the rescinding of his deific status and his removal from the annals of history, his name forgotten. It is heavily implied that the Nameless King is the long-speculated firstborn child of Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight. He tamed a Stormdrake and formed a close bond with it, leading it to countless battles.ĭragonslayer Ornstein, another relic of the Age of Gods, left the ruined cathedral of ancient Anor Londo he once guarded in search of the Nameless King, perhaps due to a wish to reunite with his one time teacher. The Nameless King was a dragon-slaying god of war in the Age of the Gods and heir to lightning, until he sacrificed everything to ally with the ancient dragons. The Nameless King was once a dragon-slaying god of war, before he sacrificed everything to ally himself with the ancient dragons
