For many Dark Souls players, the phrase Praise the Sun brings warmth to the soul. It's the catch-phrase of the lovable Solaire of Astora, one of the ally NPCs which appeared in the first game. His covenant focuses on jolly co-operation and his summoned form takes on a bright, golden shine. In Dark Souls 2, his covenant is accessed through a crumbled statue deep in the poison-filled Harvest Valley. Clearly, the brotherhood of sunlight isn't quite the bastion of jolly co-operation it used to be, but joining up and fighting alongside your fellow Undead in need will net you Sunlight Medals. Offering 20 of these medals at the sunlight altar will award you with the Sun Sword. It's unremarkable at first, but once it's been upgraded, the Sun Sword provides great scaling for players who have invested in their Strength and Dexterity stats. So, even though Solaire is long gone and his journey to find the sun met its unfortunate end in Dark Souls, the player can carry the torch for this joyful soul with a Sun Sword of their very own.
A young man with a hairy face. Will often tell you that winter is coming before retreating to his mancave to play video games with a wooly jumper at the ready, just in case.
