In the souls series you can use a special item to leave messages in the actual world for other players to see, be It a warning, a tip or even jokes.

When writing these messages, you have to choose a template, that usually have one or more blank spaces, then you choose between their bank of word (locations, items, concepts, monsters, items, etc), to fill the blanks.

Alas, in Elden Ring, we don’t have the word “turtle or tortoise”, despite having many turtles in the game, like wild and friendly tortoises, an even a literal Tortoise Pope as an NPC.

With this lack of description, we then use the word “Dog”, which is available, and honestly pretty funny, you see a tortoise in the wild, and a message near It, then you click thr message and…

“Behold, Dog!”

“Ah… if only I had a Dog”

“Why must it always be Dog?”

“Be aware of Dog”

“Dog ahead”
