Jars are to transport them/ferment them; warrior jars have 'lets kick some arse before we go' philosophy, I think. Any time you fight in a dungeon or a catacomb there are roots with dead bodies and resin explaining something to this effect. The whole deathroot and Those Who Live in Death happened presumably because Godwyn didn't die in flesh (only in spirit, to counterbalance Ranni's dying in flesh to free herself from Fingers) but yet was buried under the roots of the Erdtree (as a prince should) and this caused sort of spreading of deathroot through the roots of the Erdtree. <br /><br />For Melina's eye I saw a rather beautiful explanation that in some mystical traditions one closed eye allows to see into physical but another (the left, that Melina closes) allows to see into spiritual realm, so Ranni is sort of a spirit focusing on material world and Melina might be the opposite. <br /><br />It is supposed that Miquella secreted himself into a second tree to grow up along with it (as a cure for his eternal childhood; you can still see his face in the inside of the tree a little) but Mohg carved him out due to obsession (many Miquella's items mention this kind of effect Miquella has on people) and carried him away to start his 'dynasty'. <br /><br />Morgott's dying form is of human, his Omen blood is gone. <br /><br />Commander Niall was terrible, I agree. The way that worked for me was to use Bewitching Branch (as I coincidentally picked them up as a starting gift), then do Comet Azur while he was distracted. Unfortunately by this point I don't think you can craft branches in NG, so it was still a close call as I only had maybe 10?Kyanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12992025061183651850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372693484053299675.post-39522143788832855402022-07-04T19:48:55.757-04:002022-07-04T19:48:55.757-04:00Easy solution- it must be STR.
