mohgwyn dynasty themes

going back to my mohg posting era, to say i've thought about the whole symbolism behind it

First of all, as you already know Mohg was shunned from birth. Mohg used his own acursed blood as both a weapon and he also embraced it. The formless mother came to him. Mohg never had a mother. Not a present one anyway. There's this theme of neglect behind it. The formless mother is absent, Mohg seems to be absent to his own followers, and even Miquella seemed to be absent.

Varre says that the two fingers hold no "love" for the tarnished, despite them bringing the tarnished into existence. I think theres a vague undertone of Mohg wanting a family of his own and living that through the dynasty. He didn't create the tarnished, but he takes them in and gives them blood powers, and holds more "love" for them than the two fingers according to Varre.

Now that we know Mohg was bewitched, and how bewitchment works, we know that it only makes the victim love [Miquella]. Mohg's love seems to be very present-- but very obsessive. He's obsessed with this idea, the concept he can have his own family and be loved despite his past, so he embraces his hornsent nature. He grows free wings in his second phase.

He gives Okina who nearly kills him a blood katana, because she is worthy to survive. Like Mohg once did.

There is this poetic undertone to all the suffering in Mohgwyn dynasty and it's followers, that no matter how much you bleed, you can be loved. By Mohg, lord of blood.
