You awaken inside the Chapel of Anticipation. Feeling the concrete under you, you rise and open the gates leading into the Stranded Graveyard where you find what looks to be a golden shard floating above. Touching it you are blessed with two flasks, crimson and cerulean. Taking the two flasks, you also hear the soft voice of a woman. She introduces herself as Melina, whom offers you to be your finger maiden. After accepting, you are given a whistle, able to summon your trusty steed Torrent. After taking the whistle she advises you to seek out the other demigods in order to retrieve the shattered pieces of the Elden Ring. Seeing no further guidance at the moment to give to you she bids you farewell and hopes to reunite with you again after gathering all the pieces of the Elden Ring.
