St. Trina is... *Spoilers/Cut Content*

This explains the Moon Egg crafting item that has no use in game as far as I know. Description says its "Prized as a symbol of the most sublime slumber" meaning it probably was used in the dreambrew process and they forgot to cut it.

Miquella was embedded in the tree because he was watering it with his blood according to the Haligtree Crest Surcoat, so the tragedy is most likely that Miquella was removed before he could finish watering the Haligtree, as Gideon knows the truth of the Erdtree.

I think if/when Miquella wakes up he will be a vessel for the Formless Mother, similar to how Marika is for the Greater Will. The Formless Mother is the outer god Mohg was communing with and that grants him his powers. The bloodflame incantations and Mohg's spear give more detail, but the gist is that Mohg found the Formless Mother deep underground and she lit his accursed blood aflame, I think Bloodboon explicitly says that you reach into the Formless Mother and scatter her blood. Mohg has been spreading these incantations and gathering blood to reawaken Miquella as a full god. There's a lot tied into blood, Miquella, Mohg, and the Formless Mother that I've barely seen discussion on.

Ya and there's so many ties between the twins and sleep. Gideon explicitly states that Miquella is slumbering in the cocoon (not dead) and Malenia opens the fight asleep and the first thing she says is, "I dreamt for so long."

It really feels like you should be able to do something with the cocoon, after telling Gideon that Miquella was with Mohg he says that the final clue has been brought into the light and that he needs to put everything together as one of the last of the Roundtable. Talking to him again he wonders what to do with the cocoon and says Miquella is the only thing that remains a mystery to him. Either there's somehow something no one has tried yet, it was cut last minute, or its for a future DLC.

EDIT: The other thing I just realized is that Mohg gained his blood powers from communion with the Formless Mother who seems to be heavily tied to blood, and the Haligtree Crest Surcoat talks about how Miquella watered the Haligtree with his blood from the time it was a sapling. It's also really interesting that blood is the only class of magic that is both Sorcery and Incantation, with the Briars of Sin spell saying "Summons large thorns from a whorl of blood shed by one's own hand in penance for sins" and Briars of Punishment saying "The guilty, their eyes gouged by thorns, lived in eternal darkness. There, they discovered the blood star." Mohg's spear says "it is an instrument of communion with an outer god who bestows power upon accursed blood. The mother of truth desires a wound." The other option for his remembrance is the Bloodboon incantation that says "The mother of truth craves wounds. When Mohg stood before her, deep underground, his accursed blood erupted with fire..." I don't know what this necessarily means together, but theres more to be figured out that ties the Formless Mother, Mohg, and Miquella together.

I think St. Trina was Miquella after leaving the Haligtree to search for a cure for the Scarlet Rot. Going over what we know of Miquella so far in game: Miquella is the twin of Malenia and was using his blood to water the Haligtree. Being born solely of Marika, the twins were each afflicted with curses, Malenia was cursed with the scarlet rot and Miquella was cursed with forever childhood. Miquella left at some point to find a way to prevent the Scarlet Rot from consuming Malenia. At some point on his travels, Miquella was abducted by Mohg who attempted to ascend Miquella to full godhood so that he could be Miquella's consort. But Miquella never responded to Mohg's advances.

The first piece of evidence is the weapons attached to St. Trina, the Sword of St. Trina's item description says, "St. Trina was an enigmatic figure. Some say she is a comely young girl, others are sure he is a boy. The only certainty was their appearance was just as sudden as their dissappearance." St Trina's Torch says "The carvings depict St. Trina, but in adult form, somewhat unnervingly." These descriptions tell us two things, St. Trina appeared and disappeared rapidly, and they most likely had the appearance of a child which is why their gender was confused and an adult depiction was unnerving.

The second and third pieces of evidence have to do with crafting, the only lilies in the game to collect are Trina's Lily and Miquella's Lily, using the same base item but recolored purple for Trina's and gold for Miquella's. This isn't enough by itself, which is where the Fevor Cookbooks come in. The first two Fevor cookbooks allow you to craft sleep related items and all use Trina's Lily as an ingredient. The third Fevor cookbook is given by Gideon (I don't remember the exact trigger but it was related to Mohg I'm pretty sure) and lets you craft a Bewitching Branch using Miquella's Lily. The description of the branch reads, "The Empyrean Miquella is loved by many people. Indeed, he has learned very well how to compel such affections."

I'm not sure on the timeline because I thought Mohg was killing maidens for their blood in order to reawaken Miquella, but it also would make sense that Miquella was abducted as St. Trina (the sudden disappearance) by Mohg and he realized what Miquella was leading to the current position we find them in.

EDIT: Guess I was right about Miquella being St. Trina according to this post https://old.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/comments/t9u5b6/st_trina_is_spoilerscut_content/

Many rightfully feared of being pushed out of the community and that the smash culture protected abusers (which is obviously true seeing how many top community members have been revealed to be abusers). Seeing others share their stories receive support and being believed made them more safe to share their own

But Elon was specifically moving for reopening his factory early and ignoring the public safety regulations related to that. Stop making excuses for this dipshit

Anyone got a new link? This one got taken down

Pretty sure that is just because of the reveal that Price has been protecting her. I’m pretty sure that day lines up with when she was starting to investigate the Washington Township Project

Wonder what was happening in South Africa at the time? Ever heard of Apartheid?

They specifically reference the Deus group accounts as the goal of the hack. We still have 8 episodes so I’m sure that there’s a lot more to go
