Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree may have answered many of the community's lingering questions but players can't settle on the meaning of one particular visual that debuted before the DLC was even released. Known for its deep world-building, FromSoftware also has a reputation for purposefully obscuring information in its narratives, hiding key details within item descriptions and out-of-the-locations. There's always plenty to unpack for those fans willing to delve into the weeds but for the average user, much of Elden Ring's story is difficult and sometimes impossible to understand.
Over on Reddit, user Circles-of-the-World posted a request for clarification on the chunk of flesh Marika is seen reaching into in the Shadow of the Erdtree story trailer, sparking debate on the nature of the strange object.
Some believe it to be the corpse of the Fell God which Marika killed but the consensus is that this theory is speculation since no confirmation has ever been provided. The question regarding the pile of flesh has led the community to claim that FromSoftware intended to clarify the nature of the scene in a second DLC.
