There has, of course, been tons of speculation as to the story and such of DkSII. Who the main character will be, is it a prequel or a sequel, how are there dragons if it is in fact a sequel? I was reading some other people's posts and thought that perhaps DkSII could take place during the annihilation of the dragons, but you certainly wouldn't want to play as Gwynn, Nito, Seath, or the Witch of Izalith because that would constrict you to be that character and take out the role playing of the Souls series.
However, the Furtive Pygmy is still shrouded in mystery, we've only seen their silhouette, so perhaps it is possible that the player character in DkSII will be the Furtive Pygmy and the overarching goal will be to kill off the last of the dragons. It would make for an interesting story I think. Of course, all this is speculation and I have next to no facts to go off of, this is just a random idea I had that I felt like sharing
