Continuing onward, the player passed through the hall and followed a long road, getting mobbed by a Troll Knight and sorcerers along the way.
They slaughtered their way through, showing those lesser enemies how the future Elden Lord fought.
And the player's destination, the [Royal Family Moon Gazing Grounds], lay just ahead.
An enormous circular pool occupied the entire platform. A ring of wooden seats surrounded it, enclosing the water in a central circle. Moonlight spilled over the rippling surface, tranquil and beautiful.
An armored knight stood in the center of the pool. Her armor was silver-white in the style of Caria, but more exquisite than that of any knight the player had seen before.
A helmet concealed her face, and she held a longsword in each hand, faint moonlight flowing over the blades.
["Twin Moon Knight" Rellana]
"Insolent wretch! What a racket..."
Before she had finished speaking, she charged.
The player's first impression of fighting this boss was pain! Her hits really hurt.
This boss might not have had much health, but her damage was brutal. She was plenty aggressive, too; even the slightest graze cost half their health.
Even more absurdly, this knight was particularly good at launching sword waves. Grandeur of Caria was a completely different thing in her hands than in the player's. Wielding a forty-meter-long blade was downright terrifying.
Before the player could roll, the first strike landed, instantly leaving them with a sliver of health. The second followed immediately. The player dodged desperately, only to get clipped by the lingering sword wave and instantly have to start another attempt.
Even more ridiculous were those two "testicles"-all right, they were two miniature moons.
Two cyan-blue moons slammed into the ground. Boom! Boom! The moons exploded on impact, and the shock waves sent the player flying.
