Aviators - The Red Hood (Dark Souls Song | Symphonic Alternative)

Let's rewind a bit, shall we? "The Red Hood" is a track from last year's "Masks" release, and since it never got a proper video done I figure now is the time! The song is about Slave Knight Gael from The Ringed City DLC of Dark Souls 3. From his own perspective, it details his struggles to reach the end of the world in search for power and purpose. In the game, he's really no different than the player... But he found the Dark Soul first.

Lyrics:
When once, long ago
I was worn down and abused
The strongest took the spoils
And then we fell at their shoes
But now they are gone
And my sanity's kept by my chains
So I bear them both in faith and hate
For family and all that remains
Fight, to ignite
Not for gods nor the coming of night
If I'm the last of the men to fall
Then this warrior's growing in might
For fear and for love
And survival when push comes to shove
The red hood is coming to take you home
The bearer of soul and of light
Old kings will fade
When the last of the light's fading too
The castles long have fallen
And the paintings faded blue
So here now you stand
We are human yet both something new
The last prize has been taken
Now the red hood faces you
Here in the ashes
Balanced and whole
I endlessly hunger
For power of soul
At the end of all the ages
In the last of my crusades
You're the red hood's last contender
And the first one unafraid
I'm regretful to have hurt you
But this world's blood must be spilled
I'll return home as a monster
From the bad dream that I've killed

    Gael is the saddest character in dark souls. He is enslaved for countless thousands of years, finally finds a purpose in life being the painter girl's guardian, goes on a quest to bring her the pigment of the dark soul, slaughters what remains of primordial humanity for their dark souls, goes insane, then he needs to be killed for the painter to get the pigment. The kicker? The whole reason she wanted the pigment was to create a home for Gael

    I love how Gael is a reflection of you as a player, 1. a nobody who's been fighting since the days of Dark Souls 1 (where he gets his way of the white discus spell) through uncounted ages in pursuit of the Dark Soul, 2. is in a "Covenant"of sorts with the Painter, seeking to obtain the Dark Soul for her, the same way you gather items to level up your covenant 3. Reaches a Brick Wall boss in the form of Sister Friede in Ariandel, and has to beg another player (You) for help to get past her and continue his quest in the Ringed city. 4. Returns the favour by helping you with the Twin Demons boss fight 5. finally is forced to turn on you in the end, to complete his quest line and finish "The game" Amazing that From Software managed to make a guy with so little lore such an epic and emotional impact to players. RIP Gael, you were an incredible conclusion to the series!

It's also very awesome to note that he's likely the strongest being we ever meet in the series at the point we fight him, having survived since the original Age of Fire (one of the very few to do so) and having consumed so many souls that they are leaking out of him

    Aku6Soku1Zan franklyn is right he already had what he needed to complete the painting. When he found the blood of the (pigmi?) lords had dried up he lost his mind and all hope along with it as he became hollow but fought on regardless eating them in a desperate attempt to gain what was lost as well as trying to kill the player afterwards even tho he succeeded in his task because it was already to late for him after his hollow-fication. Thus the player needs to either relent to him or end his now endless misery. Both paths would lead to the creation of a new world.

    The Ringed City DLC really is the perfect ending to the dark souls series. All of the final bosses up until now have been some mighty kings or gods, some divine beings. And the object was always to prolong the world. But the final boss of the series is just a simple man, a slave knight almost as old as the world. And the arena for the fight is literally the end of times, the end of the world. This time you don't fight simply to prolong the world, you fight to create a new world, one that doesn't decay. But for this you need one final thing, the thing that gives the whole series it's name, ...the dark soul. The furtive pygmy, so easily forgotten, now reveals it's relevance. More powerful then the flame of the gods, is the dark soul of mankind. And now two simple men fight over it, at the end of times...

    "If I'm the last of the men to fall Then this warrior's growing in might" Honestly, that must be the most dreadful realization as a Dark Souls boss. Imagine, as one of the Lord Soul bearers in DS1: You're confident that you're one of the strongest entities in this world, and that Gwyn will not be bothered as long as you live. Then you start seeing powerful entities extinguished, one by one. Demons, monsters, and strong-ish humans. Still, you're confident: this undead may well be powerful, but you are well over the power level of a measly cursed human (let's remember that the gods couldn't handle the Four Kings and had to drown them with their city, and they're not gods per se). Then Ornstein and Smough, the closest thing a mortal can be from the power of a god, are destroyed. And you realize, this entity, this cursed undead. They're getting stronger. As much stronger as strong were the ennemies they fell. Then you feel your fellow Lord Soul bearers getting extinguished. And you know. You're the only one able to stop them. You also know that they were strong enough to obtain the other Lord Souls. And that it made them significantly stronger. So you brace yourself. But you know, it is a monster coming this way. I mean, no wonder Nito gets that much reinforcement for his fight, the Four Kings retreat to a demi-plane inaccessible unless you have an artefact from an ancient hero lost to time, and Seath tries to cheat the game by trapping you and preventing you from respawning anywhere else than his jails.

The rite of kindling we take from him isn't power itself, it's just instructions on how to use humanity to empower the bonfires. If you're referring to the other Pinwheel's outside the entrance to Nito's room, I don't think any lore source in the game mentions them at all, and all of Pinwheel's items, if I remember correctly, refer to him as a singular entity. We have no idea who those guys are or why they're there, just that they seem to be defending Nito from you.

    *Nothing?* !? They were fighting for a *Dark Soul* , soul which was split into pieces called *Humanity* .

In word of Dark Souls is locked in cycles, *light and dark, life and death* , and people were searching for a way out of it (Path of a dragon). Paintings are little different, instated of clinging to the old, they set their word on fire, amd move to next one. But painting made with Dark soul, one of the most powerfull souls, the very thing that *used to fuel the First flame* might not be doomed into any cursed cycle. *Gael sacrificed himself to make it possible.* He knew that he will lost his mind, so he guided you to kill him so a new word could be painted. *So, to correct your statement:* A fight in ashes of worlds long gone. Between two warriors, who's names never get to annals of history for a new word, a new hope and ... a ... new begging.

    Interesting thing: Gael is weak to the Hollowslayer Greatsword during his second and third phase. During Phase 1, Gael isn't hollow, but an Undead who is hollowing. The thing keeping him sane is his quest to reunite the Dark Soul and give it to the painter, so that she might create a better world. As soon as he sees his blood, he goes hollow and begins burning his humanity (the skulls) in a last desperate attempt to complete his goal. Sister Friede is the same. She is alive to protect her father and stop the Ashen One from lighting the flame. During Phase 3, she begins using Dark Magic. The essence of Humanity given the form of fire.

But when he saw the blood of the dark soul he realised he had achieved his goal and let himself go hollow. Leaving the rest to the Ashen one

These games don't tell you things forthright very often. Spoon feeding info is when you are forced to learn these things (things like cutscenes to escalate plot or told through forced character interaction.) I cannot emphasize the fact that *you won't learn the story of the souls games or it's characters* without reading the item text, talking to everyone and truly looking at the bosses, as well as making a few inferences. A youtuber named VaatiVidya extensively goes into the lore and story that you seem on persisting doesn't exist.

    I love how this song is one of the few truly triumphant ones, Gael was the only one in the world of Dark Souls to fully realise his goal. Gwyns age of fire faded, those who sought to preserve it failed, those who tried to supplant or replace it failed. Seath failed to achieve immortality, the Witch of Izalith failed to recreate the first flame, Artorias failed to thwart the dark. Vendrick failed to reach the throne of want, the Fume knight failed to save his queen, the Ivory King failed to stop the chaos flame. The abyss watchers failed to stop the abyss, Yhorm failed to protect the one he loved and Pontiff Sulyvan failed to conquer the world. Gael found the blood of the dark soul and became its vessel before finally having rest.

    God I love Gael. For so, so many reasons. His amazing character design, his tragic, disturbing, brutal, dark, and existential story, but mostly because he is the ultimate perversion (as in made into a dark, “evil” theme rather than the more optimistic kind) of my favorite character archetype: the man who’s simply doing his best. He (as in this generic “man” character) isn’t a god, a divine or fiendish, magical, or even that notable a warrior starting off. His whole quest is that of learning, growing in power, and overcoming impossible odds. Gael is that to its most sinister, twisted, and dare I say metal, degree. He doesn’t care about the age of fire or dark. He cares about the dark soul of humanity. And that’s all he wants. He goes mad for it. And at the end of the world, he’s all that’s left. There’s no god, beast, dragon, or other fantastical creature. Just a brutish madman who started this simply doing his best, and went mad with it. He’s just a man. And he ended the world in his effort to complete a painting, which he no doubt forgot was his goal. He takes the concept of the ages of fire and dark causing such a struggle for so long and nullifies it. How? By ending the world, not as anything more than a man with blood on his hands and desire in his mind.

    And, by his effort, his great sacrifice a world will be born, cold and gentle, "dark" without that destructive fire, which brought only chaos and wrongs in the world. Cornyx says it: are the Chaos flame and the Bonfire flames really that different? Conflicts started with Fire. Death came with Fire. Power came with Fire. Life came with fire... But, aren't demons alive too? Until you killed the last one, they shared the same Fire, as the bonfires, and the undead. And, in the end... Without Fire, only a grey world of mist and ashes, a formless world remains. As formless it started before the Fire.

Some of the lyrics here are really great, especially after looking a bit into Dark Souls lore. “Fight, to ignite, not for gods not the coming of night.” Other parts really struck me before I even looked into the background. “For fear, and for love, and survival when push comes to shove.” Had me checking out the phrase “when push comes to shove.” The song really seems to capture the meaning, that moment of desperate, no, determined escalation. Great song.

One as old as some of the gods themselves, surviving despite everything for millennia, yet taken by the dark and driven mad by its power. The other a failure at seeking the light, and yet still persists in their journey against a world that would only see them erased, and seeking to end the first in order to fulfill his only desire, that a young girl can paint a *world,* one where life might go on, outside of an endless cycle of life and death, health and blight, warmth and cold, and light and dark.

From Fading Light's "Souls to revive us or rot us away" to Song of the Abyss' "keep a watch over the wasteland when the world forgets my name" to Let There Be Fire's "I'm a shadow apart, past through time and the dark" and even in the collab with MoS, A Thousand Eyes' "And the cogs creak a melody" and now with this song "You're the Red Hood's last contender and the first one unafraid".

    As the figure known as the ashen one stood atop a mound of ash, which was now their former world, they tightly grasped their sword bracing themselves, for the next attack from the mysterious red hood. With immense strength, the red hood brought down their colossal sword, swinging it with reckless abandon. The ashen one skillfully clashed and parried, displaying their unwavering determination. Suddenly, the red hood unleashed a contraption in the form of a bow, or perhaps a crossbow, shooting a rapid flurry of arrows with incredible speed. The ashen one attempted to shield themselves, seeking refuge behind their shield like a fortress, but the red hood's extraordinary agility allowed them to swiftly maneuver behind their opponent. Caught off guard, the ashen one was struck by two arrows, causing them to wince in pain as they desperately tried to remove them. However, the red hood showed no mercy, immediately swinging their colossal sword and elegantly kicking up the ash beneath their crimson cape. The swing of the sword emitted a dazzling display of magical energy, a testament to the dark soul's power and essence. In the face of this peril, the ashen one felt a peculiar sensation, a warm liquid streaming down their cheeks. Despite being no stranger to violence and death, this encounter invoked a different emotion within them... Could it be humanity? Gathering their resolve, the ashen one stood tall, their short sword stained with the blood of their fallen comrade. Raising their kite shield in defense, they prepared to charge at the one who had given their life purpose in this seemingly futile world. With a resounding battle cry, the ashen one clashed with the colossal figure, their weapons colliding in a struggle, for dominance. The red hood attempted an overhead slash, but the ashen one reacted swiftly, using their shield to meet the blow, resulting in a deafening clash of metal. Though the ashen one's arm fractured under the force, it provided them with a momentary advantage to identify their adversary's vulnerability. Seizing the opportunity, the ashen one thrusted their short sword into the giant's head, piercing through the red hood.

    Ok guys. I’m not expert of Dark Souls’ lore, but I know most of it. We know Gael’s alive since the Age of Fire and even back there he was trying to reunite all the pieces of the Dark Soul. This makes me wonder: because he managed to completely recreate the Soul, does this mean that he killed even the Chosen Undead from Dark Souls 1? If that is correct Gael is truly the most powerful and ancient being ever existed. In fact our Undead managed to kill Manus, the very Father of the Abyss (or furtive pigmey, if you want another name). P.S. an undead who resisted going hollow for countless cycles must have a so strong willpower that isn’t conceivable by any of us.

    You are butchering the lore. The Age of Fire has continued since Gwyn defeated the dragons. Each Undead to link the flame has continued the Age of Fire, to stop the Age of Dark. In DS3, before you meet Gael, you fail to continue the age. The Flame simply won't link properly and it begins to fade (if you chose the Link the Fire ending). When you kill Gael, its the beginning of the Age of Dark, as the world falls to chaos. He seeks the Dark Soul as a catalyst to create a painted world free from it all, both Fire and Dark. A place for humanity and not undeath.

    Someone else killed the Chosen Undead of DS1, they *had* to in order to rekindle the flame, and we know that happened at some point because the other games happen. That undead has been completely dead and gone for tens of thousands of years by the time DS3 begins. And Manus isn't the original pygmy, at this point it's well established that he was not, he was *a* pygmy - as in, the people of the ringed city, who held the most concentrated form of the dark soul of man whereas the rest of us have it in a diluted form - and became the Father of the Abyss when his humanity went wild in response to whatever they did in Oolacile, the first time Humanity did anything remotely like that. Also, there's no reason to believe Gael was trying to rekindle the dark soul back in the original age of fire. It's far more likely that this is a relatively new motivation for him, coming from whoever the mother of that little painter was. Presumably another part-dragon hybrid like the girl herself, and presumably the true lady of the painting. Basically, you know a significant amount about Dark Souls lore, but the relatively small parts you don't kind of mess up literally everything about this post. It kind of seems like 90% of what you know comes from what the lore community thought it knew about ten years ago.

When you kill Gael, it's just the end of everything so that's actually break the circle. Breaking the circle / the curse is the main goal of every game but you fail in every game: one game you're just get fooled, the other you just keep the dark circle, some entity tried to surpass gods and became ominpotent just to break the circle but it finished to be powerless and the cycle continued. Gael probably understood that there is no way to end the cycle so he decided to create a world without curse at the price of every single entity who existed in the world and the world itself.

    Short answer: Soul of Cinder is the collective soul manifestation of every soul that linked the bonfire successfully. We can trust there was at least 4 since Gwyn considering the different advanced styles we see used. We can also trust in the fact it existed late enough to stop Friede from taking the fire as that's why she slunk back into the painted world as her home.

One thing I really think is cool about the song is that it took me a few listens to even guess who was singing the song, Gael, the player, or some other outsider. It really shows the lore on how similar the player and Gael are, at least to me. I'm not an expert in Dark Souls lore, so maybe it was easier for other people, but I liked the way it didn't really clarify.
