The Land Of Shadow Is Disconnected From The Lands Between
This Lore Detail Was Confirmed By Elden Ring’s Director
In an interview withIGN , Hidetaka Miyazaki gave some perceptiveness into whereElden band : Shadow of the Erdtreetakes place . When describing where the Land of Shadow is in copulation to The Lands Between , Miyazaki order that thetwo are “ physically disconnected,”specifically saying that there was a story explanation for it . This means that the map for theElden RingDLC does n’t just take place on a separate mathematical function for logistical gameplay reasons , but it is also representative of the Land of Shadow ’s forcible separation from the rest period ofElden Ring ’s reality .
This is reflected in how players locomote to the Land of Shadow . rather of taking some forcible path from The Lands Between toShadow of the Erdtree ’s map , players can only reach the Modern region through Miquella ’s cocoon inMohg , Lord of Blood ’s boss stadium . From there , players are as if by magic transported to the Land of Shadow . Although this answers where the Land of Shadow is , many player are n’t to the full slaked with that answer .

The function ’s Shaman Village area is where Queen Marika the Eternal was earlier abide before becoming a deity . At some point , Marika left the Land of Shadow andhid the region from the rest of the Lands Betweento blot out the evidence of her destruction of the Hornsent , the area ’s former rulers .

One area ofElden Ring ’s function that seems to be a pop speculative location of the Land of Shadow is in the ocean between Limgrave and the Atlus Plateau .

Reddit userZestyclose - South-379overlaid theShadow of the Erdtreemap into the area and it does seem to be about the correct sizing . While some instrumentalist have pointed out that this image seems to be the wrong scale and some landmark are n’t perfect , it ’s a dependable start .
Another confidential information that the Land of Shadow would be somewhere around this country is the surface area ’s relationship to the Erdtree . As the titleShadow of the Erdtreesuggests , many trust the Scadutree ’s base — where players struggle the Scadutree Avatar — to bedirectly at the cornerstone of the Erdtree . The name Scadu Atlas for part of the region would also suggest that the Land of Shadow was in the shadow of the Atlus Plateau , which would also place it in this part ofElden Ring ’s original map .
There are a few other hints that could point to theLand of Shadow in the beginning being turn up in the central seaonElden Ring ’s map . There is a large cloud on the original game ’s mapping instantly in the center of this area . This could be a subtle nod to the idea that something in the area is confuse .
