#... And hell Miquella gave up his doubts and vacillations so he never bothered to stop and ask himself: 'Maybe I DO need Trina for this?'

Ya' know I keep pondering about the whole "The Lords Soul requires a vessel" thing, and, like...

It still doesn't add up -- like, from what I can tell, Marika did not have to go through that kind of a hassle when she became a god. And in hindsight, when it comes to Marika, Radagon, and Godfrey -- like, of those three, it kinda seems like Marika/Radagon are the ones serving as a vessel, and Marika/Radagon are both sharing a same body -- though they can split and act as two separate individuals if they so want.

At least as far as I can tell.

Which comes to Miquella and Trina, who essentially have the same thing going on as Marika and Radagon. But then Miquella discards Trina, and decides to do the whole vessel thing with Radahn/Mohg, who's supposed to be Miquella's consort in the same vein that Godfrey was to Marika.

"A lord will usher in a god's return, and the lord's soul will require a vessel."

Few can decipher the scroll, which describes the secret rite of the divine gateway said to be found at the tower enshrouded by shadow.

So... Few can decipher the scroll, but then it immediately gives us what is written in the scroll.

The thing is, the whole "Lords Soul requires a vessel" thing seems like it would summarize Marika/Radagon more than it would Godfrey...

... I don't know. I still can't make any kind of sense of that, because from what I can tell, Marika did not have to jump those same loops.

Could there have been a mistranslation of some kind, be it on the part of Miquella, or even Ansbach?
