      Elden Ring is the world that is entirely devoid of hope, where many golden eras are all long past like millennia ago. There maybe another golden era coming, but it could just be a gilded age.

          Melina had hopes on Miquella. Ranni had hopes on the stars. Each of the holder of an Elden Ring shard had a vision. Yet that was the precise reason for the current situation. Sure, their heart might have been in the right place, their hopes might have been just, but their methods were not. Hence, the lack of hope for regular denizens of that world.
