My first ever story, and it'll be a crossover, I hope this works out. Feel free to point out things I get wrong and any mistakes I make, but keep it to constructive criticism, and not outright hate. I hope you enjoy.

Chapter one
She was tired of those damned ogres and how they mindlessly waddled after whatever creature they saw, so she killed them. It was pathetically easy, she just led them to the makeshift bridge and have them roll off, it went just as expected. What she didn't expect was to actually find something interesting on the beach the ogres seemed to guard.
It was a strange metal container washed up on the shore, she could've sworn that it was a coffin last time, but that's not what caught her attention. It was the fact that it had a window on the top, showing a brown haired girl with facial scars in her undergarments, that caught her interest. Our "hero" is named Nermina, a former sorcerer turned hexer, who still had her need to study strange things ingrained into her psyche since she left the academy.
She had left after the dark mark had branded itself onto her flesh, and after making her way through Heide she entered the Hunstman's Copse after killing the cleric, Licia of Lindelt, in a battle of miracle against sorcery, which devolved into two women trying to stab each other with daggers after neither could end the other with spells. In the Copse she met her new mentor, Felkin.
Nermina had then gone on to making her way to the Forest of Fallen Giants, new staff and clothes equipped, slaying both the Last Giant and a Pursuer, before leaving for the Lost Bastille. There she had been defeated many times by the Ruin Sentinels before progressing to the artificial gargoyles, then to the Lost Sinner.
Her battle with the Sinner was a hard one, she had summoned Lucatiel, who was defeated partway through the fight, which left Nermina to finish it with a dark enchanted sword. She was grateful that her wounds never scarred, lest she have one going across her chest and stomach. Thank the gods for estus and lifegems.
This now brings us to the present, Nermina had decided to return to Things Betwixt and finish the pathetic population of ogres. It still left the unsolved mystery of the metal coffin.
"Just go and look, you've got nothing better to do," She thought to herself, before walking over and gazing at the container. After a moment of hesitation, she placed a hand on it.
It hissed, and then opened itself.
