Although they are also the same colour as Bell phantoms. Nashandra? The Emeral Herald? Darkdiver Grandahl? The phantoms from the mirrors do have the same hue as the phantoms in the Abyss, maybe there is a connection here. It could be anyone whose origins are foggy. I'm gonna need to put a little more thought into this one. It would explain his existence in the game as we have a spell description explaining he was burned alive, if the mirrors are some sort of space/time portals. Unless the user has Shard Manipulation when the mirrors shatter they may become useless to the user. This could have been Navlaan, who is nearby. Mirrors are often rather fragile and may shatter or break easily. Yet another possibility that just came to mind, based on the fact only 3 out of 4 mirrors spit out phantoms, is that the fourth mirror has already be traversed. The Ashen Mist Heart may have something to do with this. Maybe Aldia created the shield? I can't think of any item descriptions that support this.Īnother bit of lore that can be inferred here is that Aldia's research involved breaching the connection between worlds, or points in time. I would like to think they're there to show a connection between the Looking Glads Knight and Aldia.
