Anyone ever consider there being a split in the timeline, due to some NPCs being still alive (Andre, Havel, Patches) and bosses from DS1 that we have previously killed having continuing lore, like how Ornstein left Anor Londo to find the Nameless King and Smough remaining in Anor Londo as the last of its knights? Maybe DS2 is if the Chosen Undead is successful in his quest to link the fire, while DS3 is if the Chosen Unded fails in his quest (or maybe an Undead was never 'chosen'), causing NPCs and Bosses to take different paths from the original game. Possible, right? Don't mean to get too "Zelda" with this timeline, but I think it could be true.
