I think the First born is either Solaire or not in the game. I think this because "Godhood" as in DkS is a social status. You the player ends up killing Gravelord nito and essentially the Witch of Izalith. Now WOI is debatable but nothing indicates﻿ Nito is any less powerful than he was when he unleashed the miasma of DEATH on the tre..... Homes of the Everlasting Dragons. Now after defeating him you're never once called a god yet you're clearly stronger than one.

Hence why I refer to it as a social status. Now nothing indicates the Firstborn had a soul like the major 4. The Dark soul being IMO a symbiotic will which genuinely cares for it's "owner" yet is doomed to kill everything that cannot combine with it. Giants and the such,humans are the only ones who remain alive and well and even increase in Power with additional humanity. This I feel is due to the Furtive Pygmy imparting it's love for his/her/it's children who I believe to be the Humans.

Now the "Gods" obviously feared the DkS. Artorias fighting the Abyss being an indicator of this,however what if the gods COULD control the Dark Soul? What if they could increase their already great power? Imagine a God of War who's power is greatly increased by the DkS? Now obviously the GOW couldn't test﻿ it on himself so he tested on another. The other's power level WAS OVER 9000!!!!!. And the GOW had to stop it however he couldn't in time before it destroyed the combined history of Lordran.

His "foolishness" had destroyed the history of countless others and despite his victory he had to bury this evil in a place where it could be easily defended against yet at a safe distance. A place where the inferiors could keep an eye on it and take the brunt giving Anor Londo time to respond. So the GOW had both saved Anor Londo and destroyed it's soul,it's history. And the﻿ only way to effectively punish him was to destroy his history. To destroy everything he held dear. To erase his soul.

His "Godhood was rescinded" and he had to leave what he both saved and destroyed. All elements of what Lordran associates with godhood was taken,and all he had left was the hope having a sun of his own,of earning his fathers respect and granting his fathers wish. Thus was Solaire(Solar in another language I forget which/Disembodied Latin for Sun) Wandered aiding all those who wished his aid and keeping an ever watchful vigil over them.

Or maybe he left Lordran to﻿ open a brothel what do I know.
