Allow me to help your understanding as a lover of lore and Elden Ring. This story trailer follows the story of 3 characters while being narrated by a 4th character. The 3 characters focused on are: Queen Marika, Messmer the Impaler, and Miquella the Kind. The narrator is a devout follower of Miquella a holy knight if you will, and her name is Leda, the Needle Knight. The first third of the trailer shows Queen Marika stealing something that many of us in the community don't truly know what it is. It's believed however to be a Rune of some sort with great power perhaps even Life essence. This is an event in the distant past of the world a critical point in the beginning of the story where Marika first ascended into godhood. The stance she takes is the symbol of her Great Rune in game that is known as "The Rune of Life". The important things to understand from this segment is, we don't know where she is who the bodies there belong to, nor in truth just what she stole though it's heavily implied to be some sort of Rune. One of the 2 main story beats in this DLC will be telling us the backstory of Queen Marika, and how she became a goddess. Next we're shown a war of absolute horrifying magnitude caused by a man named Messmer the Impaler. Messmer is the cover boss for this DLC and it's heavily believed that he is the first child of Queen Marika. This isn't confirmed, but it's heavily believed because of evidence found in this trailer by people who enhanced graphics at certain points in the previous Gameplay trailer. Messmers stuff is pretty obvious, he's burning killing and pillaging a group of peoples in a horrible genocide. Going as so far as to impale them onto spears and burning them alive as shown in this trailers middle segment. Then there's the last segment covering Miquella who is debatably the MOST important character in the lore who even up to now is an absolute mystery. Though I call him a mystery though there IS a lot we do know about him. The first is Miquella's parents are Queen Marika and the Champion of Gold Radagon. Miquella is one of the Twin Prodigies and is the twin to the strongest boss in Elden Rings main game Malenia the Severed. Miquella and Malenia both suffer from horrible curses that have afflicted them since birth. Malenia is cursed with eternal Scarlet Rot within her body that continually rots away at her physical being. Miquella however suffers from Eternal Youth, and though he is fairly old in the story his physicality is that of a child. The last part of the trailer shows sigils left that depict Miquella's Great Rune guiding us on our journey through the Shadow Lands. He is showing us where to go conveying his journey so we may follow him. Why? That we don't know. After seeing some of his symbols left behind the trailer shows Miquella walking bathed in golden light. Then it shows a girl falling into purple oblivion. That girl is known as St Trina, and she is Miquella's other half that he has divested himself of. How and why we don't know. Before this trailer we was speculating that they were the same person and it basically got soft confirmed here. Then the trailer ends as we see Leda, the Needle Knight at one of Miquella's monuments she's following his guidance and is leading a group of Tarnished in search of Miquella the Kind. All while asking if we will follow. Sorry for the long comment, but I hope this helps you understand the lore better, and I hope you have a wonderful day or night whenever you read this!

The person at the beginning is heavily implied to be Marika, at the time of her becoming a god. Miquella is just the twin brother of Malenia, the goddess of rot. Would you react to the launch trailer for shadow of the erdtree?

Unlike his twin sister Malenia, goddess of rot; he is the lord of youth; he cannot age beyond a young boy. He tried saving everyone from their torment, but failed. He wants to create a new age for everyone; an age of abundance.

All the stories in the main game are great on their own, but we all wondered what happened to Miquella. Aside from him being ripped from the haligtree by Mohg, lord of blood; we had no idea what happened to him. Even Malenia herself remains at his haligtree, awaiting his return when we first find her; and is fiercely loyal to him.

I recommend VaatiVidya on youtube videos cover the lore pretty well, specifically the Lord of Frenzied Flame, and the Blessing of Despair.
