MAJOR SHIZZLES. (up to you to accept this as canon or not, I've actually known this for about two weeks but was busy and kept forgetting to write something.)

So have you guys heard of the Portugese version of the game? Apparently the portuguese game, on it's initial release, had the same messege on the back of the monument in Majula, "the letters are worn beyond recognition." Other versions such as the french, german, italian, and spanish didn't have these messeges unlike Portugal.

HOWEVER patch 1.04 added a different messege there. "Os gigantes cruzaram os mares, talvez para voltar para casa", which translates to "The giants crossed the seas, perhaps to return home".

This could have likely even been set to be added to all the version after the DLC, but Portugal maybe stuffed it up or something.

Now on the lore side, this might be a war monument, erected (lol) after the giant war. Now since we have seen the flashbacks from those giant memories, we assume that they came from overseas. Well didn't it imply in the first DS that Gwynevere left, and that other giants also left to go across the ocean to (maybe) conquer other lands? After the Lord Vessel was stolen, they perhaps came back after it?

What if though, the sentence is interpreted the other way around, that the giants "left" and crossed the seas, to return home. I don't know how that can be more likely, but nontheless it is just speculation.

What if though, the Lord Vessel was never stolen, but something that isn't even in the game?



Omg but what if what Nashandra wanted was the soul of the Dark Lord? I mean the Chosen Undead doese become quite powerful in the end, and becomes all DARK and LORDY and with probably quite a powerful SOUL.
