In this episode of Fear the Old Lore, we examine the "First Sin" of Dark Souls 2, sin in general, and how it relates to the Profaned Flame.
This one took an extremely long time to write and produce, partially because of the scope of the project, and partially from trying to not overexplain or underexplain things. Hopefully this goes without saying, but there are going to be spoilers for Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3.
Special thanks goes to censhin for creating Logan's Archives, allowing me to quickly look up and compare the text for all three games. This video probably wouldn't have been possible without it.

Also, a special shout-out to my friend Wenderz, who's also written about the subjects of sin and life:
