FromSoftware has finally started ramping up its Elden Ring expansion pack hype train in less than a month to go up the shadow of Erdtree's release. Hot on the heels of Tuesday's pre-rendered story trailer, FromSoft is sharing the promotional art of the new NPC and I think we already know exactly who they are.

This image shows a female knight with long braided hair, a helmet held on his left arm, and an intricate gold thread-like sword raised to the right, partially covering his face. The knight's armor details a feathery scrollwork on most of its surface, but a thick white and gold cloak is covered over its shoulders.

And friends, if this is not the Eldenling lore Chicco's favorite St.Trina in the cradle song, I eat my Dan hat. Item Description esoterica,St.Trina is an androgynous knight of sleep and dreams, often mentioned in the description of weapons and tools that give the enemy "sleep" status. It has been a popular fan theory for some time that she is a Batman-like alter ego Michela, a demigod shadow Erdtree story at the heart of.

And just look at that hairstyle — this knight is the ringer for the first image of Miquella we got in the shadow of Erdtree's announcement. What remains to be seen is whether St. Trina is only wearing an armor suit to hide his identity, or whether something more mysterious or metaphysical is happening in a doppelganger, another self, etc. Given that Miquella ma and pa are the same person is a primordial god with two identities and that half of the men are not fully aware of this fact

Elden Ring subreddit user IcePopsicleDragon also noted that we have seen this knight before: They can easily be seen in erdtree games. He revealed the trailer that appeared in the shadow of the game play and knelt in front of a large fortified city with a shining gold symbol. I'm wondering myself if they're also one of the narrators of that trailer, or if they're talking about the "losing side of the war.""When Shadow of The Erdtree is released on 6/21, we will certainly find out (or as far as we know about FromSoft lore).
