The purpose of the illusion of Gwynevere is to shepherd undead to sacrifice themselves to Link the Fire. Gwyndolin wants to preserve the Age of Fire by burning these shards as fuel. Humanity is fragments of the dark soul that the furtive pygmy passed on to his descendents, humans. The rest of the games are like this with vague outlines that you have to read descriptions and listen to characters talk to piece together.īe prepared to never get any satisfactory answers. Dark Souls 3 is about the end of the fire. Dark Souls 2 is about a world where the fires have died even more. They're as afflicted by the undead curse as humans are though.ĭark Souls is about a dying world where the last fires are burning out. Everything is in such a way because Sen's is a test to see who is worthy to ascend to Anor Londo (the home of the 'Gods'). You find out later in the series that Gwyn doesn't exactly care about humans other than their faith. What's the point of hiding the state of real world from people? Even more Solaire clearly seems clueless and perceives sun as if it was real.īasically this means, that illusions are there for people/undead. It seems like the only person that doesn't know about the real world is player (until he kills Gwynevere), Other undead also show no signs of knowing that they are surrounded by darkness. If Anor Londo's sun is an illusion and most likely it is an illusion in other locations too, then this means that Gwyn and his family, and probably other lords and powerful creatures know about the real state of the world.
