LORE SPECULATION (REALLY JUST A THOUGH AFTER END GAME CUTSCENE)

So, what exactly does the Throne of Want do? Does this seat have the power to change fate and that is why Nashandra wanted it? Is that why immediately after taking the seat things begin to change as events replay?

If this is accurate then I wonder if the treasure that Vendrick stole from the giants really was the Lordvessel after all.

Here's my theory...

What if the Giants NEVER CROSSED THE SEA?

Suppose that Vendrick seizes control of the Throne of Want and uses it to reverse fate so that his forces are the original inhabitants of "Drangleic" and the giants are the "foreign invaders".

Suppose that Vendrick bases his new timeline of fate off of the royalty that he has overthrown, which would explain his connections to Gwyn and the presence of The Lord Souls as he is trying to "become" what he was not. Thus the Giants would be the remaining Gods who left New Londo, and Vendrick could be any usurper, or perhaps even the chosen undead of DSII, and thus the ending is a perfect loop, where the "cursed undead" was Vendrick all along, reclaiming his throne from Nashandra. (Gender difference really can't be held as an argument anymore to discount this as the "Gwyndolin" coffin, or "Coffin of the Moon" as I like to call it, has been discovered.

It would also explain his immense and "giant-like" size.

This could also explain how Lordran and Drangleic may be the same place. By extension, the existence of the Throne of Want could mean that every territory from DSI was actually Lordran as well.

Everyone is just too lost and cursed to realize the eons go by.
