The love and care for FromSoftware games such as Demon’s Souls and Elden Ring -which wasn’t even released yet when the art competition for its category took place-is evident in every page and artwork. Beyond simply paying homage, artists also envisioned their own concepts that would be perfect for potential sequels or DLC to certain games. In his foreword, VaatiVidya says of the art and the concepts, " the entries talking to follow aren’t ranked in any way - they’re simply a testament to the artists who created them, and fascinating love letters to the creations of FromSoftwar

Since the Omen twins were hidden away, Godwyn is most likely to be the only one to have his own children, but there is no evidence pointing to how many children he had. However, it is known that Elden Ring 's Godrick the Grafted , whom Morgott seems to be assisting disguised as Margit the Fell Omen, is part of the Golden Lineage but only a distant offshoot. This points toward his being at least a great-great-grandchild of Godwyn’s. Given Godrick’s meagerness, though, it is more likely to be a more distant relation than t

Soul Arts featured some of the best concept artworks focused on the unseen lands mentioned, but never visited within the lore and gameplay of Dark Souls . Artist Brent Lecluyse’s two conceptual artworks of the land of Carim, a land praying for the end of the Undead Curse, as undeath is treated quite harshly in the city. Throughout the gameplay of Dark Souls , one can encounter quite a few characters of Carim, yet never visit nor learn much more about the land for themselves.

When Marika took Radagon as her consort and Elden Lord, they produced two children: the twins Malenia and Miquella, who also attained status as Empyreans. The former received her father's red hair, while the latter seems to have inherited the golden blonde hair of his mother.
