Elden Ring: What Miquella Really Looks Like Inside His Egg

screenrant.com:

Elden Ring players who've been curious to see what Miquella really looks like inside of his cocoon container can now «explore» within, thanks to a high-definition video on YouTube. Miquella is a background dmeigod in Elden Ring who, much like many of the characters in the game, is shrouded in mystery. Famously directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki and written in collaboration with Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin, the stories of the world of The Lands Between are scattered in notes, lost journal entries, and character dialogue. Now, more of Miquella's story is being revealed via an inside look of his character model in Elden Ring.

According to the scattered lore of Elden Ring, Miquella was cursed to be young forever, and created the Haligtree to break his curse and purge the rot from his sister, Malenia. Malenia, better known as the Blade of Miquella, is notoriously one of thehardest bosses to beat in Elden Ring, and drops one of the game's coolest Katanas, the Hand of Malenia. Miquella, however, encased himself in a cocoon to grow and change with the Haligtree, before being stolen by Mohg, Lord of Blood. This left Miquella in a languishing state, underdeveloped and shriveled. Though he appears misshapen and unmoving, notes in Elden Ring suggest that Miquella is actually sleeping, and could rise again in the future.
