I have a theory. I think that Dark Souls 2 is... A PREQUEL. I have a few things to back this up. One, after your characcter beats the game in dark souls 2 (forgive lack of grammer please/ improper spelling.) no additional story is given. Two, i think the four kings in dark souls are the spirits of the four kings of Dark Souls 2. Vendrick, Sunken, Old Iron, and Ivory. I also think that Gwyn may be a descendant of Vendrick. Both possesd considerable power and were responsible for many good deeds before their descent into darkness. 3, Ornstein used dark in the second game, and if it is a prequel, once the player links the fire and starts a new age of fire, realises his sins and turns into a pious man/boss/suit of armor. *people talk about Seath possibly creating najka* Najka drops the southern ritual band plus 2, which was created by Aldia, who shows the same traits. And the tower of flame appearing in Anor Londo, I think that the un hollowed residents of Drangleic rebuild Heide's tower of flame into Anor Londo. Also, rebuilding of FoFG into undead burg makes sense, but i believe that undead asylum is the ruins of lost bastille. I think that if Lordran is a rebuild version of Drangleic, they didn't rebuild it because it was an evil place. Also, Eagle appears in lost bastille and undead asylum and firelink shrine may be a ruin of FoFG. Also with leveling,  i believe that the emerald herald imbued the linked fires with the power to level the player character, possibly by burning the aged feather, because it can be seen when she levels the player in dark souls 2. Also, i think that shaded woods is the base of darkroot basin. Also, with people saying various reappearances of bosses are impossible because you killed them, Giant lord "died" and was captured and became last giant. feel free to kill this theory, find loopholes, support etc. I'll respond as best as possible.
