| ==Background== | | ==Background== |
| The '''Soul of Cinder''' is a boss enemy in ''Dark Souls III'' and is the final boss of the game. It appears as a tall, charred knight, wielding the Coiled Sword and is seen as the amalgamation of all the previous Lords of Cinder, including the [[Chosen Undead]] and the [[Bearer of the Curse]] (had they linked the flame). The Soul of Cinder's role as the deific manifestation of the previous Lords of Cinder is to defend the flame; as such, they act as the final line of defense against the [[Ashen One]] when they arrive at the resting place of the First Flame.
| | '''Zagreus''', Prince of the Underworld, is the son of Hades and is the protagonist of the game Hades. |
