The Lands Between

The Lands Between is the world of Elden Ring, a ring of regions gathered around the golden Erdtree. Since the Elden Ring was shattered, its demigods have fought over the pieces, and the land has fallen into ruin. You arrive as one of the Tarnished, called back from exile to make yourself Elden Lord.

Most players start in Limgrave and the rainy Weeping Peninsula, then head north through Stormveil Castle to the misty lakes of Liurnia of the Lakes. To the east lies the red wasteland of Caelid. From Liurnia, the road climbs to the golden Altus Plateau, the volcano of Mt. Gelmir and the capital, Leyndell, Royal Capital. Beyond the capital wait the frozen Mountaintops of the Giants, the hidden Consecrated Snowfield and Miquella’s Haligtree, and finally Crumbling Farum Azula.

Below the surface run two great rivers, the Siofra River and the Ainsel River, with the Deeproot Depths beneath them all. They hold some of the strangest and most beautiful places in the game.
