Messmer x Tarnished (Reader/You) / The wooden end of your staff drags against stone as you lean heavily upon it, your body swaying dangerously. The wooden shaft groans under your weight as you struggle to remain standing. You lower yourself to one knee, the venom making your vision swim. "I can't fight you." Messmer footsteps echo across the distance as he approaches. "What manner of Tarnished... that wouldst not raise their staff?" Beneath his amusement lurks a deadly threat. / A graceless warrior enters the Shadow Keep. A lord of flame guards his solitude. Neither of you expected to find understanding in each other. As secrets unravel and duties clash, you both learn that everyone deserves a second chance - even a lord of shadow and flame, even a graceless Tarnished. Where will this path lead? / Slow burn and redemption.

After the ruthless Battle of Aeonia, Malenia found herself at the foot of the Haligtree. She was recovering her strength, slumbering, while also waiting for the return of her brother, Miquella. Until a Tarnished interrupted her sleep, saying her brother had been kidnapped, and petulantly offering to be her Blade, to fight for her. Little did the demigod know that this knight was no mere Tarnished. And that more than showing her where her brother was, he would show her a pure and sublime feeling, which transcended even the terrible and unforgivable Scarlet Rot. The characters and fictional universe of Elden Ring, as well as the songs used as "soundtrack," do not belong to me. This is just a story made by a fan and to fans, intended for entertainment purposes only. I am not making any profit from this story. Cover art by @VaiCupcakes Also posted at Archive of Our Own!
