A reddit user, VG_Crimson revealed a ghastly experience for killing Miriel, the widely known turtle in Elden Ring. It was safe to assume that no one really had the intention to murder the poor turtle. This creature is a soft-spoken tortoise NPC that guards the Church of Vows and wears the pope’s hat, hence its nickname as the “Turtle Pope.” It helps you study sorceries and incantations, widen your knowledge on Elden Ring’s Lore and accept some sorcery scrolls and incantation tomes.
