Renalla was one of the ancient Astrologers, and her prowess was so great that she founded a royal family, the Carians. She and the princesses of the Carians were famous for their sorcery, specifically cold and moon sorceries. With her Full Moon Sorcery, Renalla captivated the Raya Lucarian academy, and her and her family’s power was so great that it could repel even the forces of the Erdtree. The stalemate was so resolute that peace could only be found through marriage between Renalla and Radagon. When Radagon returned to Leyndell to become the second Elden Lord, Renalla was left with the Amber Egg bearing the Rune of the Unborn, which she would hold so dear, to the detriment and eventual collapse of the Carians. Perhaps it was all a scheme to ruin the Carians, or perhaps it was just happenstance.

Heartbreaking and beautiful. I still subscribe to the theory that the Rune of the Unborn represents a miscarriage that tore them apart.
It could also be a big part of why Renalla is so torn up and despondent. It wasn’t just Radagon leaving her, but also from a lost child. Double tap.
Considering that the Rune of the Unborn was removed from the Elden Ring BEFORE the Shattering, and that Radagon IS Marika, I suppose it’s an option. Perhaps they tried to use the rune to try and save the child, but it didn’t work.
I’ve also heard theories that the wedding was a scheme to weaken Renalla and the Carians the entire time, that Radagon poisoned them from within and then returned as the second Elden Lord to seal the deal. It could be both. Perhaps the Knights of the Cuckoo aren’t just a fun name, but a tell of what Radagon did. He replaced Renalla’s children and attention towards her own family to an impostor. And it worked. Caria fell, Renalla became a shell of a woman, and the only member left that is doing reasonably okay is Ranni. If you call being a doll and committing heresy and blasphemy okay. If that’s fine, than I suppose Rykard’s pretty based as well.
