Elden Ring - Boss Fight Highlights [№42]

Elden Ring NG.
First Playthrough.
All enemies are shown in chronological order.
It begins with a warm-up, a clean sweep of the remaining Evergaol bosses, which quickly turns into the fulfillment of the Age of Duskborn alternate ending being unlocked via Fia, Deathbed Companion. With some careful dialogue, being held, talking in secret- I'm able to enter the Deathbed Dream and confront the Lichdragon Fortissax. One of Elden Ring's coolest enemies I've seen yet. Exiting that fight, the key item offering the choice to choose the different ending is there, hovering over Fia's corpse: the Mending Rune of the Death Prince. Shortly after, I challenge Mohg, Lord of Blood. His scene isn't as dramatic as Malenia's scenes, but he's my favorite Shardbearer of the 7. In №42 there was a detour I had to take, so I could ultimately obtain the Unalloyed Gold Needle from eliminating Commander O'Neil in Swamp of Aeonia. This key item is then given to the NPC Millicent for a time (see №42 livestream for the full breakdown), until she later dies after battling her four sisters. NOTE: The Unalloyed Gold Needle is transformed into Miquella's Needle after defeating Malenia, by inserting the former into the lotus left behind from the fight. Miquella's Needle is required to reverse the effects of choosing the Lord of Frenzied Flame alternate ending, as it is the only ending in Elden Ring that if chosen- has irreversible consequences unless you have this specific item. But before I get to Malenia, I go to war with all bosses in Miquella's Haligtree area and finish what I started.
