- Sunlight Altar could be the same one, has those steps before it, however not opposite of it. Considering that alter was in Lordran, and Drangleic is confirmed to not be Lordran, that seems unlikely. Fromsoft has been known to be troll at times, like with the travellers pendant, so right now i believe this might aswell be Lordran (or atleast Vinheim) because how else would the Lordvessel be here, along with those 4 souls from ng+? Easily. If the Giants were living in Lordran and Nashandra sent Vendrick to steal the Lordvessel from them. hmmmmm, they only said it wasnt lordran, but they didnt exactly say this place wasnt mentioned in the prequel, which means that this could be Vinheim or Zena or Catarina or even Astora. They said the setting for the game, Drangleic, wasn't Lordran. They never said that Vendrick didn't go to Lordran. they never said that Drangleic wasnt actually Astora during the time of the Chosen Undead either.

They didn't, but that's speculation at best. We do know, however, that Drangleic isn't Catarina. The Catarina set is in game, and makes full mention of Catarina by name as if it still exists.
