Here's a few theories I've had:

Havel was planning to other-throw the gods. (not new)

I also think he was working with the Everlasting Dragon. The Great Magic Barrier found in Ash Lake can imply this. Also - it states on his shield that it is enchanted with his own unique type of magic - ancient magic he possibly could have learned from the Everlasting Dragon. Also, the R2 that gives you stone scales... may imply some type of "Dragon Magic".

Gwyn, being manipulated by Seath, could have locked Havel into his tower. Thus Seath's minions surrounding the tower.

Havel was my favorite lore character in this game. I seriously hate how little character development he got
