I don't believe Miquella to have simply failed at the hands of Mohg. I think he is trying to subject himself to a literalization of the alchemical process related to self actualization; essentially his goal has been to become a human philosopher's stone the entire time.

By making Radahn let go of his grasp over gravity and thus spacetime, the Eclipse may come to pass. within Elden Ring, entropy exists outside of spacetime which is why Death may persist in the many ways it seems to, or why Rot still spreads and Gold still tarnishes (Rot is the embodiment of stagnation and thus flourishes in the lands between as things are; pure Gold staves off the effects because it is a symbol of pure Faith; it grants the will of the user based on their belief, which can fade causing the Gold to tarnish)

Miquella has likely separated body and soul via the haligtree to leave a corpse in the blood of the formless mother- the outer god of truth. meanwhile, expecting capture, their spirit spreads faith as a ghost-like spirit, under the guise of St. Trina.. Miquella has found a way to traverse what i twntatively call "The Lands Between The Lands Between".. spreading faith in their spirit through their dreams-- as in Miquella/St. Trina. Miquella is Saint Trina, the same way Radagon is Marika. i think Miquella/Trina have managed to separate their spirit and give each their own identity.

St. Trina is the Spirit of Miquella. in fact, Trina is a reflection of Miquella, and i mean that on multiple levels: they are demonstrating understanding of the alchemical principle of "The Unity of Opposites" which ties into both alchemy and (the somewhat dated practice of) jungian psychology. basically, they're carefully planning and gambling on their every move as they position their twin spirit to contrast in a perfect dichotomy.

"Shadow of the Erdtree" could take place at a point where all is aligned in Miquella/Trina's favor, allowing their separate personas to re-emerge as one perfectly balanced entity known as a Rebis

The Dark Moon's presence could spur Deathroot to grow much stronger and faster. the light of the Golden Erdtree now gone and no longer even burning, The Dark Moon then strangles and bends any remaining Erdtrees. the lack of light pollution now reveals a light source; a previously unseen ball of light in the sky; a proper Sun. These massive, Erdtree-sized Deathroots grip and squeeze golden sap from the Erdtrees that once bore life and formed miraculous crystals. as the Dark Moon crosses the sky in front of said Sun, Death becomes life itself, the concepts overlapping as Life's inseperable counterpart flourishes.

from here, like a sick Easter in the Lands Between; The Body of Miquella awakens soulless and without a will of its own. Alongside it, the corpses of Godwyn and Ranni.*

as the light of Gold wanes, the namely Shadow of the Erdtree is cast by a Sun that, beyond some lost or forgotten Belfry or passage, was once blocked from shining light where Trina's spirit presently slept. She now awakes from her slumber, the returning Sun acts as the signal for her to act. She collects the golden sap from the wrung trees on her quest to reconvene with her body as it lay soaking.

the putrefying body of the sun lie slumbering within an egg. the Spirit of the Moon and patron saint of slumber, a reflection of the light of the Sun.. the physical body soaked in the red blood of truth and their ephemeral spirit wringing the golden yellow sap of faith from the branches that once bore them like fruit

all is in perfect pull of one another, and every aspect appears to be in place for their transformarion into a Rebis: a Blackened Corpse, a Pure white reflection, the Red Blood of truth and the Golden sap of Faith

I want to write a fic where Albedo gets 2 younger brothers as Rhine completes the set of children based on the 4 stages of alchemy and I want him to raise them. I want them to have their own favorite elements (like Rubedo used ice predominant) but they don't have visions. I want them to hate Albedo but also depend on him because Rhine left them too. I just love the concept of Albedos geo vision representing the fact that he is the person grounding this family. I want them to each have a distinct personality and I want one of them to be volatile and fiesty and screeching about their mother and not needing Albedo (I feel like he should be the water guy, like a wave of emotions large and uncontained. Incompressible, waterfall, turbulent) and the youngest to be numb and overly obedient as in he pretends to have no needs so his caretakers don't have to fuss over him (fire, constantly being his own warmth and comfort, passionate but quiet, dangerous when unattended). After the whole fight with Ruby I want Albedo to put his own life goals aside to raise the children he didn't want or ask for because someone needs to and they're both scary alchemist raised by a terrorist and he's not abandoning them. He won't let them be left alone again.

I feel like Rhine is angry Albedo took custody and their fighting a war in the background. Albedo doesn't want them to know. Rhine wants to finalize her experiment and use the plans to turn the final stage of the homonculus project (the youngest) into a soilder and then make more exactly like him. He's obedient and a people pleaser.

It's like found family except they're actually related so more like fix it family? I don't know. This idea is plaguing me. I just love making Albedo stressed and parental.

Anyone else like this idea or know of a fic that can satiate my little brain lol. Calling fellow albedo fans
