Summary
AnElden Ring Shadow of the ErdtreeDLC fan has discovered a sundial right outside of Castle Ensis, which might finally provide answers to the mysteries surrounding the moons in the game.

Soulsborne games are well-known for their mysterious lore, andElden Ringis no different. Fans have been hitting every wall and interacting with several NPCs to complete the jigsaw puzzle ofElden Ring’s lore. The developers also stated thatElden Ringstill has an undiscovered secret, even almost three years after its release, which speaks volumes about the game’s depth. Meanwhile, one of the game’s most confusing mysteries might finally be on the verge of getting solved.
In a new post on theElden Ringsubreddit, user Hype_rion reveals a brilliant detail that many fans might have missed. In the Ensis Moongazing Grounds, where players fightRellana in theElden Ring Shadow of the ErdtreeDLC, players can find a sundial. Now, this is not just decorative in nature, as the player notes that it is fully functional. In fact, one can even see the shadow it casts in the picture posted by the user. However, it is just not an ordinary sundial as it could hold the key to one ofElden Ring’s many secrets.
Elden Ring’s Moon Mystery Might Finally Get Solved
Considering how many crucial characters in the game draw their powers from the moon, it is an integral part of theElden Ringlore. There are many moons in the game, such as theFull Moon which is associated with Rennala inElden Ring,Rellana’s Twin Moon, Ranni’s Dark Moon, and so on. How these multiple moons are connected is one of the most mind-boggling mysteries in the game. While some players believe that all these represent different phases of the same moon, the most popular theory has been that there are multiple distinct moons in the game. Fans are now using the sundial to solve the mystery of multiple moons.
If players pay close attention to the sundial, they will notice that it doesn’t have the typical hour markings. Instead, it has different phases of the moon, although it doesn’t resemble a moondial, as those tend to look a bit different. Fans believe that this sundial might actually be used to determine the phase of the moon. This new detail possibly suggests that the game might have one moon after all, and could solve one ofElden Ring’s biggest mysteries.
