@@BloodyArchangelus She's also correct in her suspicions as well. Ansbach does betray Miquella. The Hornsent will inevitably turn on Miquella since his thirst for revenge wasn't even sated by killing Messmer, and swears he'll kill everyone related to Marika and the Erdtree. He'd probably turn on Miquella for being Marika's son. The Tarnish is literally guided by Grace to kill Miquella. However, she admits to making a mistake regarding Thiollier as a threat though, since she didn't predict that Trina would desire Miquella's death despite her deep love for him. She's also really respectful to the objects of her suspicion when she's trying to kill them. She's also implied in her rune's description to have been a Tarnished but was given unalloyed gold into her eyes by Miquella, which is why she's so fanatically loyal to him. She did kill all the other Needle Knights in the Haligtree though for reasons unknown, so she's still a crazy bitch.

“You have no understanding. Of kindly Miquella, or St. Trina’s love.” Don’t see people talking about this one enough but it’s probably my favorite dialogue from this fight.

Godhood would be a hell of his own making, a terrible unending nightmare that he would never awake from. Even after everything he’s done, St. Trina still loves him enough to wish him the mercy of sleep.

Ansbach: Casually is respectful, ominous, thoughtful, as resolute as Leda and as war-junkie as Ishinn AT THE SAME DAMN TIME Leda: Talks so ambigiously she makes it impossible to tell if she is sorrowfully going after her former comrades OR taunting traitors in passive-agressive disdain and hatred. Thiollier: "Not the finest blade, not the mightiest armor..." Player: after all his journey, even now bro just can't help but downplaying himself a little Thiollier: "...will spare your life from the poison of Thiollier!" Player: HOLY FCKING SHIT THE SELF-CONFIDENCE Almost everyone: "I don't want to do this. This is heart-breaking. But given the stakes, you can be assured I shall murder my way through all of this.

Even more so when Ansbach; a renown warrior who has accomplished much in his life-time as a well renowned noble and general to Mogh, was the one to give Thiollier praise. I only wish Thiollier heard his kind words, perhaps he doesn't need too anymore. A man who was beaten down by life to the point where he was too scared to die but suffered too much to live. A man who simply wanted an ever-restful sleep and a purpose for his life. It was only logical for him to chose St. Trina as his purpose. And for the first time in Thiollier's life, he had a purpose to see through till the end. A purpose we found for him.

Ngl, when i walk in the arena and saw Leda, i was like; huh, so here we go again, another typical fromsoft sad npc fighting ya? But the moment when every npc start talking and interacting with each other, the whole fight easily become my favourite and damn, it was epic!

I love this fight, if you do it alone, it's like you are the boss here and Leda and her companions must defeat you, and if you do it with Ansbach and Thioller it is a fight between companions with different ideals, really a wonderful idea for a combat against npcs

Freyja was the only one I was looking forward to fighting. Its a bit difficult to explain, but as I respected her as a warrior, and looked forward to when we would be fighting together or against each other. It for some reason felt right to fight her. Edit: Thats not to say I didn't enjoy the fight overall, its just that fight her was the highlight for me.

Her fight man, it made me sad. She was the one I was hoping we would charge straight into the final battle with. When she said "this is our moment. Let's make it something to remember" It felt like an old friend telling me to smile and to honor her with battle. 😭 Edit: Oh yeah she bows to us in her death pose. I think she accepted us as lord in the end.

These voiceline edits are fantastic. DLC has a lot of controversial elements, but handling of major NPC quests has honestly been a knock out of the park in terms of improved across-board quality, and I hope the standard stays raised to this level in future games.

The fact that the two heros that stand with you, one being dex/arcane/faith for Ansbach, the other being dex/arcane/int for Thiollier, has to be some sort of point that Miyazaki is trying to make about building as such

That should mean you summoned him to defeat Messmer, as Hornsent invades you in Rauh right before fighting Romina. If you don't summon him to fight Messmer and he survives his whole quest, he allies himself with Leda.

I can't say much more than what's already been said, but man this fight was epic.... Getting to give Freyja a proper battle, one against the Pureblood Knight Ansbach at that. Feeling fury at Hornsent's self righteous behavior after learning what he and his people did to Marika's. Sadness and reluctance to fight Moore due to his naivete, and renewed strength at hearing Thiollier not only apologize to us, but feeling his new resolve to help fulfill St. Trina's wish to save Miquella. Mutual honor towards facing down Dryleaf Dane after learning from him, and facing down the Oathbound Knight, Lady Leda and her dedication to Miquella..... It just was such a beautifully done fight, Cinematic in every way alongside my spirit summon, Tiche,, leader of the Black Knife Assassins...

The fight was so hectic that I missed some of the lines later on in the fight. The exchanges between Thio and Leda, as well as Ansbach and Leda in particular. I would say I kind of like this encounter more than the final battle in some ways lol. Makes me hope FromSoft takes this more NPC/party member centric approach in their next game, whatever it ends up being.

The drama of this moment... How did From knew I'd meet and understand all these people? Leda, you follow your Lord into godhood, but have you wondered if it is really your choice? You've been to the crosses, and seen everything Miquella left behind to ascend. Is there anything left of the Kind Miquella you're sworn to? Freyja, Radahn is dead. He died a warrior, like he deserved. Bringing him back, on the corpse of someone else, to serve a Lord he didn't choose, would he want that? Do you want that for him? Hornsent, we fought Mesmer together, we avenged your people... But once you get a taste for blood, you just don't care who it comes from. It won't stop with me. Sir Moore, you fight to forget the pain, but it is that pain what drives your caring nature. Would a kind Lord take your kindness away? Master Dane, there's no need for words. I've met each of you as allies and friends. If lordship requires suffering, I accept the price. I am to become Elden Lord. I herald a new age. The throne will be mine.

People who say this is the worst boss is probably because he didn't give a shit about the NPC quests, this fight is simply epic, although the combat itself isn't the best but the feeling that comes from having to face those you saw as allies and fighting side by side with others produces a feeling that no other boss gave me... that added to the music and the NPC dialogues undoubtedly make for a pretty epic battle.

"I am Sir Ansbach of the Pureblood Knights. I stand with blade aloft, blood afire. For the dignity of my lord and master Mohg." This is the ABSOLUTE best of Fromsoft's NPC fights. I legit had tears during the whole fight. This might've been even more emotionally charged than the final boss. Final boss was epic, but THIS. This was so emotionally charged that I just can never hate this fight no matter how much anybody tries to convince me otherwise.
