But there could've been a dozen undeads, the serpent's were just playing the ”chosen” undead. They were manipulating him to their individual goals whatever they may be. As for Vendrick, i don't think either ending actually happened, here's why. It could be reasonably possible that the world Drangleic inhabits is one in which the fire was neither kindled nor allowed to die, hence the undead curse was never halted, which if you look at the ember description in DS2 it brings up an interesting point. What if the fire can never die? What if, even if the dark is stronger that the fire will endure. The first flame was spontaneos it brought disparity, life death, light dark. For the flame to go out none of these things could exist and the world would go back to grey crags and archtrees. I would guess that the fire was around for sometime prior to the lordsouls being found in order for such beings to be powerful enough to seize them
