With FromSoftware’s symbolism-heavy storytelling, it’s not far-fetched to believe that Martin slipped some symbolism of his own into the lore of the Lands Between, possibly expressing feelings about Game of Thrones . From Queen Marika’s doubts about the Greater Will and Golden Order, to Godfrey and his Tarnished warriors being exiled, Martin could have put his feelings about the rise and fall of Game of Thrones’ popularity in these storylines. Elden Ring has a dark fantasy style that supports releasing the negativity that grew from Game of Thrones s eason 8 tarnishing his reputation as the writer of a series that captivated countless viewers, until they became enraged and disappointed by the path it took at the end – after there wasn’t more of his original material to draw f
