Also, the pieces of the Dark Set descriptions state: "Old foreign legends describe them as poor souls who chased the lost art of lifedrain." meaning that the Darkraiths of legend are foreign to Drangleic? ergo Lordran is foreign? I hadn't noticed that, so I suppose Drangleic isn't future Lordran then. I also read a comment in another thread, but I don't remember which, that the devs had stated Dark Souls 2 is set in a different place to Dark Souls 1 but no source was given, this does seem to be the case though but I've been wrong before.
