King's Field III {spoilers, conspiracies, and more!}

#35
The following wall of text is going to be my last post on this topic for awhile unless any of you Hollows out there care to take a stab at it

There's a lot of information here and I am offering an alternative theory to the conventional understanding of the King's Field Trilogy.




The truth mirror in KF(JP) states that it was the Forest Dragon/Miria who were responsible for handing the SoM to Hauser. BAM!!

Aight? Check it out now...

King's Field (JP) and King's Field (US) really have very little to do with each other besides the basics.

There's some recurring items, Alfred, the SoM, the country of Verdite.... animated human remains and monster labyrinths... and that's about it..

Aside from imparting the all important origin story of the SoM, King's Field (US) didn't go into any of the open-ended questions left behind by its predecessor, King's Field (JP)... Such as the meaning of the Royal Sanctuary, the Black Knight, the Dark World, or your benefactor known as the Forest Dragon/Miria.

It features a new story involving the aforementioned elements from KF(JP), while sporting new characters and a new mythos; Seath and Guyra, creator of the sword of light on the island Melanat.

The next game, King's Field 2 (US), addresses some of these previously unanswered questions by connecting Guyra with the Royal Cemetery and Miria, explaining a good portion of the original KF(JP) in the process.

However...

(If you don't know what I'm talking about, in KF2(US), use the Truth Glass on the 5th floor of the Royal Sanctuary, "Guyra's Sleeping Quarters" - it says that Miria is the shadow of Guyra and fights for his revival)

Considering how the Forest Dragon and his fairy friend are the innocent good guys in KF(JP), wouldn't it make much more sense for them to be connected with Vallad instead of Guyra?

The dragon gave the Sword of Moonlight to Hauser.

Yet it was Guyra who created the sword...

But Miria certainly didn't seem like Guyra's people!

Neither does Vallad, right?

Miria and Vallad's actions are almost parallel...

Both Vallad and Miria are age-old demi-god guardians of life and justice, who are on their last leg, still trying to keep the darkness at bay through their respective emissaries and champions. They help you avenge your father, repair the sword of moonlight, and usher in a golden age for your kingdom by thwarting a dark nemesis...

Except Miria turns out to be working for the dark nemesis!

In numerous ways, Vallad is also very similar to Seath, who was the hero god figure of KFII(JP)/KF(US) before Vallad.

Seath also turns out to be in league with the darkness, with no little to no warning, other than seeming a little bit "strange" on Melanat.

I see a trend developing.

Miria, Seath and Vallad

As for things in Vallad's favor...

Orladin actually says Vallad's name one time, haha. Yeah, okay! The skeleton with the Demon Key for a head and a shield with eyes enigmatically hidden within it...

As stated earlier, the only other npc to mention Vallad is the totally crazy guy Joe Santos, who also talks about the Light family, who is connected to Guyra. This guy thinks he's a glass of orange juice.

Not even Alexander or Alfred actually say Vallad's name....

How did Necron and Alfred really end up getting possessed by the dark gods anyway?

On the side...

What ever became of Ichrius?

Chronicles of Verdite lore suggests that Tsedeck never actually conquered harvine's kingdom, and Harvine's kingdom actually ended up splitting and becoming Verdite and surrounding countries. Any in game lore to back this up?

Any lore behind the dragon crystal fruit trees on Melanat?

The fire dragons in Verdite castle, is there any lore behind them?
