OH! A small addition, my FAVE Malenia finish, was during my NG+5 run!

Come to think of it, Malenia and Miquella's cursed states can be a reflection of each other, aren't they? Miquella is stagnance of growth, ie. he doesn't change much if not at all, where as Malenia goes into overdrive, as in all her cells just generate and die consecutively, instead of the usual cell lifecycle, hence rot. Might be one reason Mogh wants to be Miquella's consort; if he can continuously bleed, Mogh would literally be unstoppable. I did not watch ahead, I did not even know you'd mention the connection between Miquella and Malenia.

Malenia, for me, has become one of the most enjoyable, if not MY favorite Demi-god boss fight, in the entire game! I don't know why, I just really came to love her Boss Battle! I don't know if anyone else feels the same way as me, but, I just had to put in my opinion. When you mentioned that F-ING Space Amoeba, Elden Beast, I was like:' YES! THANK YOU! Someone else said it!' I'm finishing up my NG+7 run, and it is currently kicking my ass MORE than the other Demi-god fights, combined! Mohg, Malikith, Morgott, even Radahn, 1 or 2 tries each! Even Radagon, I beat within minutes, Elden Beast, FRICK! Sorry, went on a bit of a tangent there, lol! One of my FAVORITE Malenia finishes, my Mimic, long dead, I took her into Phase 2 with her own sword! For the rest of the fight, it was just ME and HER, beating the CRAP out of each other with our swords! I finished her with Malikith's Black Blade! It was one of my coolest finishes EVER! I enjoyed it so much, it got me thinking of playing Sekiro Shadows Die Twice! I have NO idea how it's like, is it similar to the Malenia fight, two badasses with swords, but the entire game? Maybe that's what I enjoyed about it, the feeling of it's just YOU and the other person, your skill, your sword, and hoping you don't get destroyed. I stumbled across your Channel earlier, and I found myself binging your vids, most of the day! You DEFINITELY have my new Sub.! GREAT work! 🥰

Thank you! Yeah Malenia is a great boss no doubt. Certainly one of my favs too! Can't wait to see if we get more about her in the lore soon!

How does Gowry fit in this? He knew about the gold needle. He was trying to turn Milicent into something. Also, Melenia is called "Goddess of Rot." Is she the outer god of rot or becoming the god of rot like how our player gets taken over by the frenzied flame?

Seems like Gowry comes from the same species of creatures as the sniping shrimps in Caelid (was it? Don't remember), whom might be tied with the Elder God of Rot that is tied to Malenia, Blade of Miquella, and she has never know defeat.

@@randomsandwichian Possibly but one line of dialogue he has throws a wrench in that theory. When you strike him dead he says: "We shall meet again, you and I. There are countless pests to choose from." He's speaking as if the rot pests are an "other". Something set apart from himself and he is using them as a vessel of sorts.

Gowry being the outer god of rot, or one of its most loyal servants possessing a Pest makes sense to me. Similar to Shabriri in Yura’s body, or Hyetta in Irina’s body.

I think that Scorpion thing, I'm thinking, was the vassal beast to the Outer God of Rot, like the Elden Beast is to the Greater Will! I have been brewing a long/crazy theory for a while now! I think the Blind Swordsman, Malenia's mentor, was possibly the vessel/avatar for the Outer God of Water! How else just ONE man, ALONE, beat the possible vassal beast of the Outer God of Rot, and sealed away said Outer God! Also, I've been kicking around a story that the Blind Swordsman possibly was from Ashina, the world of Seikro! Yura and Okina could have came from there too, just practiced different sword styles! I know it's nuts, but, it's for fun! It makes one wonder, IF, the Scorpion was a vassal beast, what was the vassal beast of the Outer God of Water, IF there's one? Just speculating!

Scorpion butterfly mix? Maybe the Rot God is just a general insectile mess of different bugs smashed together. Sounds like a Fromsoft thing to make.

In terms of Malenia's wings, I don't think she ever used literal wings until our fight with her when she essentially fully gave in to rot. At the very least I'd say she rarely used them. I find your idea that Miquella is also affected by the Rot God to be an interesting interpretation. As for Miquella's needle working on the Frenzied Flame, I interpret it as the needle fighting against any outer god influence, it just so happens that in game we can use it against this one. Unsure why it has to be beyond time and space to work, though. Maybe that brings you closer to outer gods, hence why Placidusax was waiting there for his.

I see, so you think that the needles have a more generalized purpose. That makes sense too!

Did you guys realize the resemblance of Malenia and Miquella to Lothric and Lorian? In both cases they are cursed (explicitly mentioned during the game) and one is the blade of the other one (and the other one is somehow the healer). Am I hypothesizing something wrong?

I think "Wings of strength" is a metaphor,she didn't gain wings until she fully gave into the rot in her fight with us.
