11 Old-Timey Words Dark Souls Taught Us

While talking to the Shrine Handmaid, you may also come across the word prate. This can be done by giving the Shrine Handmaid ash from a recently deceased. This will prompt the following response from her:

“Gracious. Passing fine ash thou’st given.
And awfully warm, at that.
Almost as if it had lived, mere moments ago…
Oh, forgive an old woman’s idle prate.
I’m sure an ashen one such as thee would never indulge such base contrivances…”

The definition of prate is to talk long and idly. The first known use of the word prate is from the 15th century.
