The Impenetrable Thorns are objects in Elden Ring.
Overview[]
The impenetrable thorns of the Erdtree are a mantle of barbs that spurn all who approach,[1][2] preventing them from becoming Elden Lord.[3] They grew over the entrance to the Erdtree when Queen Marika shattered the Elden Ring.[4][5] The Impenetrable Thorns may only be removed by using the Giants' Flame at the Forge of the Giants to set the Erdtree ablaze—the first Cardinal Sin.[6][7]
Notes[]
- The Thorns are arranged in the lattice pattern seen on Radagon's Rune.[8]
- The Thorns may be a manifestation of the Scadutree's wrath.[9][10][11]
- Thorns are an aspect of the primordial Crucible.[12]
- The Guilty and Fire Prelates also combine thorn and flame imagery.[13][14]
