Crackpot theory guys:
If you all remember, the Elden Beast was said to have arrived in the Center of the Lands Between. Well, if the SOTE land is truly in the middle of the map, that would suggest that this is where the Elden Beast first landed, and this would undoubtedly be a reason why Marika hid this land, because she wouldn’t want anyone else to know the location of where she got her godlike power right?
Well, here’s where my crackpot theory comes in: What if the Elden Beast didn’t land in the LB by chance, what if Marika somehow
called the Greater Will to the Lands herself?
Up until now I kind of just assumed that the Outer Gods are just these beings that exist for reasons we can’t understand, but what if that’s not true? What if the Outer Gods are were actually summoned to the Lands themselves? Now I don’t know how Marika would do this, but something tells me that the Divine Towers forming a perfect circle around the area where the SOTE land is located can’t be coincidence.
What if the ultimate purpose of the Divine Towers (and the SOTE land) was to summon the Outer Gods? And this is why Marika would want to hide that land from everyone so no more Outer Gods could be summoned?
Idk, just thinking lol
