This short novel, 'Dark Souls: The First Flame', is a collection of short stories showing what Lordran, the city of lords, was like before the events of the original Dark Souls created by Fromsoftware. I am a long time fan of the series and have tried to include some of the lore, whilst creating my own bit of fiction around the four lords of the original game. None of these stories are cannon and are simply for a bit of fun.
