Table of contents
The truth I shall share without sentiment. After the advent of fire, the ancient lords found the three souls. But your progenitor found a fourth, unique soul. The Dark Soul. Your ancestor claimed the Dark Soul and waited for Fire to subside. And soon, the flames did fade, and only Dark remained. Thus began the age of men, the Age of Dark. I am the primordial serpent.
I seek to right the wrongs of the past to discover our true Lord. But the other serpent, Frampt, lost his sense, and befriended Lord Gwyn. Undead warrior, we stand at the crossroad. Only I know the truth about your fate. When the Flame started to fade, the Lord Souls taken by the gods started to lose power, while the humans born from the Dark Soul started becoming stronger. Gwyn feared that some day humans would take over and annhilate the Gods, just as Gods killed the Everlasting Dragons, which would lead to another change in the order of the world's leading race.
Without linking the fire, the world would descend into an age of darkness--an age of men--where the Dark Soul rules. Gwyn, fearing this religation of Gods and the strange horrors of the Dark, chose to link the fire to prevent this age of darkness. At some unknown point during these events, The Dark Sign began to manifest itself upon men, such that their souls would not pass on into Death, whatever it might be. Those bearing the brand upon death would find themselves at a Bonfire, set by Gwyn on his journey to link the fire, devoid of the Dark Soul, Humanity, that had given them power.
Those humans devoid of humanity and purpose would gradually lose their minds and go Hollow, an irrevocable condition of madness. This is believed because the curse did not show up the first time the fire was fading, and started only after the fire was kindled by Gwyn and fading again. It is possible the curse was created by the Lords to ensure that humanity would always offer itself to maintain the age of fire.
Seath is obsessed with immortality, and eventually becomes what Big Hat Logan describes as "A True Undead," the results of all his research to this purpose.

He also displays a true understanding of the bonfires, being able to sever them from each other. Death is an area of domain only of Nito, who posesses the Rite of Kindling, an art critical to the Undead, and who had previously cursed one, Pinwheel, to never die. Kaathe, along with other primordial serpents, began manipulating Man to accelerate the rise of Dark. The sorcerers of Oolacile, weilders of magic of pure light, were tricked by the Primordial Serpent Kaathe into disturbing the Primeval Human Manus.
Upon awakening, Manus' humananity went wild and began to consume Oolacile, thus creating the Abyss, a place of pure darkness and turning the mankind of the city into monsters, Manus taking their princess, Dusk, captive. The Four Knights of Gwyn were dispatched to Ooacile but could not tread in the Abyss, which housed many deadly creatures, until Gwyn's Knight Artorias made a pact with the creatures of the Abyss, and armed with magical equipment tried to defeat Manus.
Although history would say otherwise, Artorias was overpowered and corrupted by the Abyss. Manus is eventually defeated by an unknown figure and in doing so, his Soul is shattered, splitting the Abyss into many fragments as well as birthing the Daughters of The Abyss. Artorias traveled to Oolacile in order to stop the spread of the Abyss. It is stated in Artorias' ring that he made a pact with the creatures of the abyss not to be corrupted and killed. This is key because we are told that humanity is born from the dark soul, which implies darkness.

The Abyss corrupts everything and kills everyone, but it seems that some creatures inhabit this peculiar place. Once the Abyss came into being, Kaathe seduced the Kings of New Londo, a city of Undead, into becoming Dark Wraiths and learning the Art of Lifedrain, so that they may forstall hollowfication and gather humanities to rebuild the Dark Soul.
Some Kaathe dialogue:. As the fire began to fade anew, the light of the sun began to fade, casting darkness upon the land.
Devoid of their central figure, the gods fled Anor Londo, leaving only Gwyndolin, The Dark Sun imbuned with the power of the moon, and Seath, who had long since gone mad. Gwyndolin created several illusions to maintain the illusion of the Gods power, including an illusionary Gwynevere and that light was not as faded. To protect these secrets and the Path of Fire itself, he created The Blades of The Darkmoon, a secret society that slew the enemies of the gods. Darksun Gwyndolin and his followers become the sole force in power at Anor Londo.
Years pass since Gwyn has Linked the First Flame and it has once again begun to fade. One such Undead succeeds where many have failed. This undead, unlike others before, cinders himself, much as Gwyn had before, becoming the new Lord of Cinder, and ensuring that the Age of Fire may continue for another period. Ages pass. Kingdoms rise and fall. The land shifts. Undead continue to sacrifice themselves to sustain the Age of Fire, yet more undead are created. The curse spreads. All Undead that do not cinder themselves will eventually hollow, for although undead live forever, none can remain strong forever, and to slip into hollowfication cannot be undone.
For souls to flourish once more the fire must be relinked. Some complete their task becoming Sublime Bonedust. Some refuse to be sacrificed and carve out Kingdoms instead, which rise and fall in turn. Even when the Flame sputters and Dies, it will rise up and burn once more. The Dark spreads, splits, fades, and takes on new forms.
Since the beginning of time, power has been invested in beings known as Lords. But what made a Lord was something uncertain.

It is eventually determined by a small few that Lordship and Dominion are tied to The Throne, binding the lord's will to the land and creating a kingdom, and The Crown, annointing a Lord as Monarch, with the authority to be obeyed and investing in them certain power. One throne, The Throne of Want, symbol of true power as the monarch capable of deciding the fate of Fire and Dark, has remained empty since the dawn of time.
Beyond the scope of light, beyond the reach of Dark And yet, we seek it, insatiably Such is our fate. Within the Kingdom of Dranglaic, a king from a fallen kingdom consumed by poison deep within the earth and his brother seek to find a way to attain true power and eventually, as it spreads, to stop the Curse of Undeath and Hollowing, their efforts eventually drawing many seeking a cure for Undeath. Their names are Vendrick and Aldia. Vendrick, believing that the secret to overcoming the curse lay in the power of Fire, allied himself with Nashandra, who unknown to him was a shard of Manus, a Child of The Abyss.
Together, they sought sovereignty. With the power of his exceptionally mighty soul and her abilities, they repelled an invasion of Giants from overseas, and therefore established the Kingdom of Dranglaic, home of the mighty dragon riders. However, the power of Dark continued to grow, and undead filled the land, causing Vendrick, now undead, to feel its power greatly within him, and to began to suspect the truth of his wife, Nashandra.
Filled with doubt and despair, Vendrick left for the Undead Crypt, to study the process of Death as a way to overcome the Undead Curse. Eventually he found no solution, and went hollow. With none to sit upon the throne, the kingdom unraveled, and soon became a land of naught but undead. Meanwhile, Aldia began a multitude of experiments into Dark and Fire, and into the nature of man, seeking an answer to the nature of the curse. He took control of the minds of hundreds of scholars and commited atrocities on many in mass experiments.
He experimented with giants and drakes, ultimately producing The Ancient Dragon, a false true dragon with the soul of a giant, created a multitude of beasts, and experimented with bonfires and summoning, accidently producing The Forlorn, those that have been cut off from their home time, trapped in that of anothers. Ultimately, he was banished by Vendrick to his keep, where his experiments continued.
Ultimately, although he produced many spells, beings, and devices, Aldia was unable to find a cure for the curse, nor a way to escape the shackles of fate.

And men assumed a fleeting form. These are the roots of our world. Men are props on the stage of life, and no matter how tender, how exquisite A lie will remain a lie. He therefore determined that the Hollow was man's true basic state a conclusion supported by the opening of Dark Souls I, depicting hollowed men finding the Flame, and the fact that there was a "first" of the Dead and that the curse stripped away the illusion of Humanity, revealing man's Undead Nature. Although Aldia's power was great, his experiments had left him in a monsterous state, akin to a tree, hollow yet sentient, and bound to Bonfires, and he therefore sought those with power, to guide them so that they might find a solution, to overcome the shackles of destiny binding them to the cycle of Light and Dark.
Aldia meets the Cursed undead on their journey that seek out a cure for the curse and encourages them to seek out greater power and go to meet Vendrick after he has questioned the Undead's motives. Young Hollow do you wish to shed this curse? Then accept the fate of your ilk, and face the trials that await you. Unless, you have already joined the crestfallen. Inherit the order of this world, or destroy it. But only a true monarch can make such a choice.
The Seven Valleys And the Four Valleys
Very few, indeed, have come even this far. And yet, your journey is far from over. Half-grown Hollow, have you what it takes, truly? He who almost became a true monarch. Vendrick is certain to guide your way. Fledgeling Hollow, may we meet again. What drives you so, to overcome this supposed curse?
But what is a king? You, neither born with greatness, nor granted it by the fates. What is it that you seek? You cannot even say yourself. We shall meet again, young Hollow. Aldia's brother Vendrick had a different plan to utilize the remnant power from other kings crowns to stave off hollowing.
