Have a gander at this cut Elden Ring scene showing a smidge of DLC boss Miquella’s past

The cutscene shows Miquella in the arena where you battle Malenia, at the base of the Haligtree. It seems to be a memory, depicting Miquella planting a young Haligtree. There are a couple of lines of dialogue associated with the scene – though their exact order is unknown – including Miquella encouraging the sapling to grow and offering it as a gift to Malenia. Interestingly, the sapling visibly grows and even bleeds during the cutscene – a pretty striking visual!






![Trajectory-persistent adversarial attacks reveal that recurrent state space model (RSSM) architectures amplify initial perturbations-increasing by a factor of 2.26× in the deterministic GRU world model-before GRU contraction attenuates them, a phenomenon not observed in single-step baselines, and which is mitigated through adversarial fine-tuning-reducing amplification across all steps-resulting in a reward gap of only [latex]0.000892 \pm 0.000057[/latex] at a planning horizon of 30, and demonstrating a fundamental trade-off between model expressiveness and robustness to adversarial input.](https://arxiv.org/html/2604.01346v1/x1.png)
