The Alliance of Night and Flame began with Rauh and the Smithing culture, who evolved into the Astrologers and Fire Giants. Rauh originated the idea of the “wisdom beyond stone”, the technology underlying the golems. The Astrologer’s conceptualization of the primeval current originated with Rauh. Their culture was responsible not only for controlling the flow of water in the Lands Between, but for controlling the flow of the spiritual energy cycle through life, death, and rebirth - the journey of the spirit through Night.

ABOUT
Join us in jolly cooperation as we piece together a timeline of the history of the Lands Between.
The theories presented by this channel are woven not only from text descriptions and lines of dialogue, but from the wealth of visual evidence in the game. Using methods inspired by real world historians and archaeologists, we can thoughtfully analyze the art and architecture of the Lands Between to answer questions like “Who built the Divine Towers?” “When was Farum Azula destroyed?” and “What really happened on the Night of the Black Knives?”
Shoutout to the Elden Ring Archaeologists Discord who have participated in crafting the theories presented on this channel:
