Random_script’s video begins with two Furled Fingers and the Host of Fingers facing the mist leading up to the battle area. The host applies a couple of buffs and consumes flasks before entering the boss fight arena. What happened next was nothing short of hilarious and ironic at the same time. The fight begins with Beast Clergyman singling out the host and performing the Beast Claw move, after which the host panic rolls multiple times. Ultimately, they fell to their death without even getting hit by theElden Ringboss, upon which the original poster and the other companion returned to their respective worlds.
