The Golden Lineage
'A Great Rune of the shardbearer Godrick. Its blessing raises all attributes. This Great Rune is known as the anchor ring, found in the center of the Elden Ring. The first demigods were The Elden Lord Godfrey and his offspring, the golden lineage.' The Golden Lineage is the canonical first family of demigods. Godfrey is its patriarch, the first Elden Lord, married to Marika before Radagon, father of the golden lineage, and of the twin Omens Morgott and Mohg. Their Great Runes are described as anchor rings, the rune-fragments at the centre of the Elden Ring's broken constellation.
'A Great Rune of the shardbearer Morgott. Its blessing greatly raises maximum HP. This Great Rune is the anchor ring that houses the base, and proves two things: That the Omen King was born of the golden lineage, and that he was indeed the Lord of Leyndell.' Morgott's Great Rune carries a small bureaucratic miracle in its flavour text: it is described as the anchor ring that houses the base, and the card reads it as evidence of two things. First, that the Omen King, born horned, exiled to the sewers, was nonetheless of the golden lineage. Second, that he was the rightful Lord of Leyndell. What the game says of royal Omen is narrower and colder: they 'do not have their horns excised, but instead are kept underground, unbeknownst to anyone, imprisoned for eternity.'
