FUN FACT!
When you get King’s Bramis health low enough he will stop attacking you and start slowly crawling towards the queens statue. His health will continue to dwindle, allowing himself to bleed out and die.

I interpreted this slightly differently. There’s a stigma in Bramis castle that says the king was beginning to be afflicted by the Rhogar sickness. And speculated Sophesia turned to Adyr in hopes of finding a cure. The gathering of artefacts was not at Adyr’s behest but the queens in hopes that she might be able to glean a cure from the scraps or perhaps to find a way of contacting adyr directly. Her Infernal Catalyst is described as crudely made. Almost as thought the queen was struggling to imitate an existing catalyst. THAT’s when Adyr got the hooks in.

Damn, I had no idea this game's lore was so well written. Shame so many people wrote it off as a Dark Souls clone. May have to give this a try.

The Road to Hell is paved with good Intentions...

What a horrible Fate for these good People...

To me, the story of Sophesia, Bramis and their child was the most fascinating, beautiful and tragic puzzle of the entire game. Thank you so much for this video! But I do believe the veiled woman wearing a spiked crown and breaking the seal holding Adyr in the cinematic trailer is in fact Judge Cleric, as that's exactly how her corrupted boss version looks like in the game. Not sure what kind of "deal" Sophesia made with Adyr, but it's clear that Bramis became way more corrupted than her, in the end.

God, idk if anyone else ever thinks about this, but damn do soulslike games make me want a whole damn tv series or movies made about them to flesh out pretty much what you have portrayed here in this video. Absolutely amazing job with deciphering the lore and breaking it down like you have in these videos, cannot thank you enough!

I just finished my first playthrough. After seeing the cruel corruption he inflicts upon Mournstead, it was clear his claims of benevolence were gaslighting.

Ive been following you for a while from your MTG lore videos. I gotta say that when it comes to Lords of the Fallen, you are Vaatividya quality. I personally believe LOTF is a FANTASTIC game and that these lore videos will age very well. Keep em' coming.

As soon as I saw the title it all came together. What a genius video name.

Random shot in the dark here, but "Fitzroy" means "Son of the King". I wonder if he's an illegitimate half-brother to the current King. I don't know what to do with that theory, but it's an interesting choice of name, and he seems to have plenty of influence in the kingdom

Very powerful love story, cursed to end in a horrible way unfortunately. Despite being besieged by the machinations of Adyr and the paranoia of the Sentinels, the love between these people endured.

Excellent video 👏👏👏

Thank you! This lore series is an absolute masterpiece.

Your lore videos on Lords is a blessing. Appreciate the time and effort you guys have done for the game. Hope you guys keep uploading Lords lore as long as there’s lore to discuss that is. Hopefully if there’s a DLC you guys cover that as well 👍🏼

I felt like this game was so well written. The lore was fantastic. It doesn’t get the love it deserves

Great Video. Was wondering why Fitzroy was interested in Rhogar artifacts at Calrath marketplace. Initially thought he was trying to acquire power to push back the encroaching Hallowed Sentinels.

The lore of this game is so good. Very thankful for your covering of it.

People will listen to this and still say the Adyr ending is the best.

Great story and the best part is that a casual like me was able to piece it together by her quest.

I wish soul games made quest more easy to follow

I came here to hear about the Spurned Progeny.  I always thought there was something innocent about him, like he wasn't actually evil, but just influenced or possessed or infected with something else (the hands in his mouth).

I wasn't disappointed.

Very good lore telling. This game's lore is so rich and facinating. I am halfway through the platinum on ps5
