10 Questions That Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree Has Left Unanswered
As with any Soulsborne game, requires players to do some investigating to uncover its story, lore, and mysteries. The expansion left many mysteries unanswered, annoyingly, but this isn't surprising, since FromSoftware is known for leaving many aspects of the worlds it creates up to interpretation. Quite frankly, discovering and learning about the lore that the game doesn't overtly tell its players has become part of the fun and is something to look forward to in many Soulsborne games.

With Radagon once being married to Rennala, the family tree is quite extensive, especially if Shadowbound Beasts are included. The mystery of whether Messmer is actually the eldest (he presumably is, but apparently had a brotherly relationship with Radahn) is certainly a confusing one, and the questions surrounding Melina don't help
