Like many FromSoftware games, Elden Ring is dense with lore and secret histories that lie buried in its expansive environments. So many details about Elden Ring's story may escape the notice of players, as they're often hidden in item descriptions or briefly mentioned in snippets of dialogue that are easy to never come across. While many players love this approach to narrative, it might mean that the significance of certain NPCs is overlooked. Wider aspects of Elden Ring lore might even lose their potency if players don't fully explore certain environments or carefully read the descriptions of the loot they pick up, and it would be a shame to miss out on the rich and detailed lore of the Lands Between.
