Liurnia's downfall was inevitable. Though no one knew, the gods harbored a plan. They gifted the people the Elden Rings and created demigods to protect and inherit them. It was only a matter of time before man and demon would seek to corrupt them,  and the gods knew very well of the greed and hatred of man. Their gifts were the tools to Liurnia's destruction, and The Eternal Queen Marika would be their arbitor.


Hey there! This is basically a cohesive telling of Elden Ring's confusingly complex lore. I wanted to understand the characters, their backstories, and how The Shattering came to be. However, I've found that it doesn't really exist in story format quite yet, so I wanted to take a stab at it. Note: I'm not an expert on Elden Ring lore by any means and it can be *quite* expansive and hotly debated lol I'm simply writing from what I've interpreted and how it all comes together in my notes. (Also, if it makes for a good story, I'll sacrifice some accuracy here and there). Enjoy, and please let me know how I'm doing!

"You intoxicate me, you filled up every single one of my thoughts to an extend that I actually didn't want you to die" Soo this is me but like 3 years (??) later and I have to say I wrote this when I was like 12/13 so there's that andd if you know me irl, pretend you never saw or read this. Thanks and enjoy! This book mainly just revolves around Hermione and her need to save her kingdom, even though there will be dramione moments I can't promise it to be all about romance Monarchy still persists and kings and queens rule the lands. After the war between the kingdoms, each of the kingdom decided to sign a treaty and form a union. The royalty, including the princes and princesses, are...special. Magic runs in their veins, making them witches and wizards. But the people did not fear them, for they knew that both good and bad witches and wizards existed and their rulers were anything but evil....atleast some of time. Hogwarts:- school for royalty, that also taught the princes and princesses how to control and use their magic, was a boarding school that royalty attended from many places around the world. Including the golden trio. When the school year comes to an end and many of the prince's and princesses are weighed down by the pressure of ascending the throne, Draco and Hermione has their own little problem. What is this problem? That is for me to know and you to find out _ So this is my first time writing, and I apologise beforehand for any kind of mistakes I make. Also I constantly look back at my chapters and make a lot of improvements and edits to fill up plot holes here and there. Sorry if that bugs you. Warning:- the characters all belong to J.K Rowling The picture I used for the cover was edited by me,myself and I. (The account name given in the cover is my old name @meridasbravery, so please ignore that typo) _
Hostile Takeover by 101SiegeRegiment
5 parts Ongoing Mature
From the few Elden Ring stories I have read there was nothing of the sort of the MC having an army. Heck maybe not an army but at least like a small Group of warriors. So I thought why the hell not. There are a lot of castles and forts that noone occupies anymore after you slaughtered half the Population of the Lands Between. So why not go through it all again but with an army backing you? Experience as you a Tarnished who has seen this shit all before becomes a Elden Lord with an army of men and beasts alike. Shaping the Lands Between to the Tarnisheds liking. Ps: I went through some Forts and Castles and I must say while from the outside they are gorgeous. The insides are lacking with the example of there are a lot of missing doors and genuinely I had to multiple times asks myself how the fuck did they get down there before without stairs, elevators or ladders. Even in their destroyed stairs you at least still would recognize some sort of it or rubble over some doors would have been alright but noooo. So I probably change some of them so that it would make sense of how they were able to enter some areas in those places. Pictures and such belong to their respective artists and well Elden Ring belongs to Fromsoftware.

And when you thought that It could not get any worse after the Shattering, I had to hit them with this shit. Sometime the Light at the end of the tunnel Is from the headlight of an oncoming train. I don't really know what went through my head with this one but after the DLC came out I really wanted to do a story on Elden Ring, and it so happen that this is the best one I came up with. Pretty shit if you ask me, But it will be sure to be interesting to watch our favorite King of Curses tear his way across the lands between. How will the lands between react to this menace? will they snuff out an end to the king of curses? or will they too- fall before the King of Curses? Xx-Sukuma_Nutz-xX
An Accord for Development (An Elden Ring Two-Shot) by Epsonea_482

"Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who yet live. The call of long-lost grace speaks to us all!" It was a simple, yet grand purpose to those given a second chance by the Light of Grace. To become Elden Lord and claim the Elden Ring. Many would be emboldened by the flame of that ambition, and many more would perish at the hands of those who wished nothing more than to see the Tarnished dead. Such was the way things were in the Lands Between, shattered and fractured to the point of chaos between its residents. Only a select few would be guided by Grace, however only one would truly be gifted with something incredible. A gift that would render the physical well-being of a soul... unworried in the face of death. Yet the mind of that same individual would only be further damaged from it. So what did it mean to have true immortality? A blessing? Or merely a foul curse in disguise? One Tarnished warrior would grow bitter to it nonetheless, all the while cherishing the one gift he truly had. A friend. One he would do anything to protect, and one he would grow to love in spite of fate itself. This is an Elden Ring Two-Shot story; a Male reader X Melina story. I do not own any pictures or characters used, you are yourself.

Advent of the Game-Given (Elden Ring SI/Multiverse Gamer) by SlimBuddy61
18 parts Ongoing
Reincarnation, the idea that a soul is granted a second life, and is reborn in a physical body. It was a concept I enjoyed reading about, and seeing the way different people utilized it to create interesting stories. That's all it was-an interest. Of course, there were times when I jokingly wished to be reincarnated, but it was a simple jest. So with that being said, can anyone tell me... why in God's name was I reincarnated into Elden Ring of all worlds, into fucking Morgott, of all people! Like, seriously?! Well... at least I know what the future entails, even if said future is complete and utter dogshit, and I also happen to have a gamer system, so all's well that ends well, right... right?
