Elden Ring is a massive yet complex game to understand. Like other Fromsoftware games, there is a profound story behind the scenes; you have to dive deeper into the lore to understand it. This story can be understood by reading many items' descriptions and interacting with every NPC you can. By reading between the lines of the game, players can discover just how interesting the Land Between can be and just how impactful your decisions in the game
This is the most straightforward ending to Elden Ring and requires nothing more than beating the game. You form the Elden Ring back together and begin the Age of Fracture as the new Elden Lord. Like the previous Dark Souls games, this ending is insignificant, as your ascension to the Lord does nothing to help the underlying issues of the world. The Elden Ring has been reformed, but its effects on the land will only cause another war and another breaking of the ring one day. For now, the demigods have been stopped, and the war is finally over, but it can only be speculated for how long the peace will l
In the Leyndell Royal Capital area, Elden Ring players can acquire the Thunderbolt Ash of War item; when equipped to a weapon, this Ash of War (and the Honed Bolt Incantation spell) lets players summon a golden lightning bolt nearly identical to that of the Dragonslayer Swordspear from Dark Souls 3 .

While mass destruction seems terrible, this land is an unending curse, and the cycle of pain has only continued up until now. The Three Fingers and Chaos see this destruction as the means to the final end of all the fighting and suffer
In the Sage's Cave dungeon, found by exploring the Altus Plateau area of Elden Ring , players can encounter a mini-boss named Necromancer Garris, who fights players with a flail weapon that can summon skull-faced projectiles of Ghostflame. Defeating this boss earns players the aforementioned Family Heads flail weapon, described as having " three bludgeoning copper heads " that were made to resemble the Necromancer's wife and two child

Abominations belong to the undead faction of the Warcraft series and are a mix of different dead creatures that have been given life. Each of the abominations is built like a Frankenstein monster that was made by Frankenstein's lazy intern on a whim. They are messy to look at and have gaping holes in the middle of their stomachs that they'll usually bleed out
Ranni usurps the current higher powers of the land and plans to leave the Lands Between to those who inhabit it. Being guided by the moon and the stars, people have true free will for the first time in their lives.
