>People think there is a cycle

No, there is no "cycle", time is going foward, and the illusion of the cycle is just that souls don't just evaporate, they just pass to different hands. People link the fire, but nobody in the canon has put it out or something like this, it's not fire>dark>fire>dark>fire, it's age of dragons>age of fire (we are here) and thats it, the dark is yet to come.

Lore thread.

What is the antagonist of the series? Are the lords from all of the thrones trying to save the world or destroy it?
>>
>>334796318
On 2 the clear antagonist is nashandra, but there is no antagonist on the rest of the games i think.

Is the deep the one true religion?
>>
>>334796318
YOUARE THE ANTAGONIST
>>
>>334796530
No, that's Islam
>>
>>334796318
Entropy.

>>334796474
So...the world is just shit because?
>>
>>334796318
there is no antagonist

The real question is how can faggola still defend the dark age when it's obviously linked to the undead curse and the abyss?
>>
>>334796530
It's pretty much lovecraft shit. And it is different from the abyss and will bring the age of dark sea in the future as seen as a vision by Aldrich. That is why he was preparing for it by eating gods.

The church of the deep was pretty much fending off the deep until they all went mad because of it.

>>334795442
Age of fire goes on because theres a cycle kindling the fire. Thats why the ds2 protag decided to fuck off and now we got lords of cinder freaking out over the fire being so weak

the same reason ours is
>>
No one said it goes fire dark fire dark. Its constantly fire but it never fully burns out until someone rekindles it
>>
>>334795442
when people say "cycle" they refer to the ritual of linking the fire

so you have age of ancients>age of fire>age of fire ending>gwyn links the fire>age of fire>age of fire ending>someone else links the fire>age of fire and the world is now stuck on these 3 stages forever
>>
>>334796720
That stuff wouldn't be trying to reclaim the world if it wasn't for the light, fire started this and darkness will end it.

Pick the losing side if you want, ashen one.
>>
>>334796856
>>334796905
there are people who think its fire>dark>fire, i am not talking about you guys
>>
>>334796905
ds3 is just what happens when someone decides not to go on with it. Thats why in ds3 the ds2 protag is called the one that went beyond death
>>
>>334796909
Yeah whatever man. I'm picking the side where humans aren't mindless husks and that has giant god ladies.

Say what you want but abyss buggers could've never build something like Lordran or Lothric
>>
Why is hollowing a negative in DS1&2 and a positive in DS3?
>>
>>334797254
>abyss buggers could never build these amazing ruins

No, Abyss buggers build stuff that's actually useful, rather than constructing endless gigantic walls surrounding ruined cities for no purpose.
>>
>>334796474
Bitch boi Gwyn is the antagonist of DS1.
