User blog:Brutal Templar/Not Kept Up to Date: A Blog That Will Do Exactly as its Title Implies.

The title explains itself well enough, so I had best get to talking about things other than how much I will be forgetting that this exists. I suppose this would be a good place to reveal my own lore theories and receive feedback on them.

Part of my theory already having been stated earlier, I'll repost it here.

I like the idea that the original owners of the soul have ingrained their personality into their souls. This would explain why Drangleic is so reminiscent of Lordran, even though they may or may not be different places geographically. The inheritors of the Lord's souls have, on purpose or without knowing it, reshaped Drangleic to resemble Lordran to give it the same feel it had during the events of the first game.

The lord of Brightstone Cove created experimental creatures and was driven mad like Seath. The Lost Sinner, as the Witch of Izalith tried to recreate the first flame, so did she try to rekindle it. Gwyn wanted his Age of Fire to have no end, the Iron King wanted to build an unbreakable kingdom. And the Rotten takes in all that is dead and discarded, just as Nito reigns over death itself.
