8:20 Fell Twins are next to Rykard being the coolest fights that are very easy. With Fell Twins, the fighting space is infinite. Took too much damage? Ruck backwards and heal. One pretty much left me be while I fought the other one.

[@garrick3727]

The divine towers form the Elden Ring, surrounding the Erdtree. Each tower is dedicated to a demi-god who possesses one of the shards of the Elden Ring. Since the Shattering, the Ring had gone and each demi-god has left it's tower. When you bring a Great Rune back to the tower, you are essentially returning the shard of the Elden Ring to it's correct location. If that all sounds a bit weird and it does not jive with what you experience in game, remember than each demo-god is a metaphysical entity, so the form you fight is not their only form. Malenia is the easiest example because she is both the Blade of Miquella and the Goddess of Rot. Miquella and Malenia are twins - Miquella is healing while Malenia is decay, or life and death. The Blade of Miquella ends life, and death has never known defeat - no-one escapes death. The demi-gods are both concepts and bosses. In the same way, the Elden Ring is both a ring and a circle of divine towers around the Erdtree. The thing in the middle of the divine towers is the Erdtree itself. I know it doesn't look like that on the map, particularly since you can enter the Erdtree in Leyndell, but if you look at it from another position the base of the tree is closer to the center of the circle and the tree leans towards Leyndell. (Personally, I think when the story was first imagined, the tree was in the center of the sea surrounded by towers but you could also get to the tree from Leyndell. When it came to trying to create that in game, it wasn't so easy. )

[@sphawesome571]

I legitimately didn’t know that the great runes did stuff. I’m on the final boss and I thought they were just showing that you beat the bosses

[@MeisterSchwabbo]

They buff certain things, BUT you need to equip the great rune and to activate it(to get the benefits) you need a rune arc, if you used a rune arc while having a great rune equipped it stays active until you die, you can rest at graces and all that, but if you die you lose the benefits and the rune arc, but you can obviously activate it again.

in my case the chest at the "Tower of Return" which should lead you to the divine tower (for the rune of malenia) first brought me to the grace "Divine Bridge" in Leyndell (ashen capital) After beating that giant armed with a halberd, on the left I found an active portal, entering it led me to the "isolated divine tower"

Same thing just happened to me today! I was very confused

To open all towers you have to fight all the bosses for the runes.

Thank you this helped me a lot I sincerely appreciate this quick to the point well made video

[@msarilyn7677]

Cloud in the middle is likely DLC area that is a floating city upon the clouds which are solid and you can walk on. In order to get there you will need a glider, likely made available by DLC.

[@petersweet3464]

skypia

[@Theclownhaslanded]

I dont think we'll get just a floating city, seeing as we already have Crumbling Faram Azula which somewhat fulfills that category, I think it will be more of a mix between a flying city and one that is sinking beneath the Sea.

[@msarilyn7677]

@@Theclownhaslanded That would be difficult, as you can't swim. Perhaps there could be an undercity under the water after the floating one though as you could warp in once a boss is defeated. An underwater city would be neat if you can look out the window.

BROOOOO I just put two and two together. That the thing at the top of each tower isn't some sort of giant meant to have the rune engraved, it's fingers. That's why on top of the one in Liurnia it doesn't have fingers, instead it has the real body of Ranni, because her specific fingers are located on that moonlit plateau. It all makes sense now.
