Often story progression and character development will occur when you simply decide to continue a conversation with a non-playable character.

Along with item descriptions, the locations of the items also provide important context clues. Everyone and everything is there for a reason: It’s a safe bet that every enemy and item you find was placed at a certain location for a reason.For example, the “telescope” item description explains how Carian astrology “withered on the vine” under the Golden Order, a faction in the world of “Elden Ring.” This tells us that the Greater Will, the natural law of the world which the Golden Order worked to uphold, and the study of astrology were at odds with each other. Your understanding of the story often will be rooted in what these items say.

Every item in the game will have some information written in its description.
