As a diehard Elden Ring fan (over 1,600 hours played), I simply could not let this one go unsolved. I tried looking at it when it first came out (and sporadically thereafter), but could never wrap my head around a break in.
Over the last couple weeks, I really buckled down and finally cracked it. That crack then took 180 minutes to finally solve, incorrectly ... then another 10 to get to the right solution ;-)
What an excellent puzzle and name. Thanks for setting!

Amazing combination! The way the constraints interact is sublime and the flow is spectacular. Definitely has all the essential Tyrg elements in.
