Aseo the Tarnished bustles through the Lands Between in search of a way up to the Altus Plateau, where the Erdtree takes root. On this journey, he joins Nepheli, and the two witness a tragedy that spurs him to butt heads with Gideon Ofnir. A return to Liurnia results in a meeting with the blind Lightseeker Hyetta, who promises to teach him how to climb the Altus Plateau in exchange for a favor. But they’re not alone, as a fearsome foe who fights with the Frenzied Flame suddenly rears his head! It’s Festering Fingerprint Vyke, the man who came closest to becoming Elden Lord― and he’s got something to say to Aseo!!
