To me, this moment of tenderness all but confirms that Godfrey must have visited his Omen children in their sewer prison.
Consider everything we know about Godfrey. He actively venerated the Crucible and its primal manifestations. His knights wore helms decorated with horns and utilized its animalistic magic:
Even after the Crucible fell from favour, these knights were tolerated right up until Godfrey was banished. Therefore Godfrey must have been preserving them even despite Marika's decrees.
This makes sense, because Godfrey was born in the ancient era when the Crucible's wild power was considered a blessing, not a curse:
"A vestige of the crucible of primordial life. Born partially of devolution, it was considered a signifier of the divine in ancient times, but is now increasingly disdained as an impurity as civilization has advanced."
To Godfrey, his Omen sons would not have been something to revile. This is supported by the fact that their horns weren't excised. I doubt it was Marika's choice, since she had turned against the Crucible by then. It MUST have been at Godfrey's behest.
Likewise, who else could have commissioned THIS?
A "memorial fetish fashioned in secret" that CLEARLY depicts Morgott. Someone CARED about this secret Omen infant. Enough to memorialize their their existence at the risk of the entire Golden Order. It literally ONLY could have been Godfrey.
Lastly, there's the circumstances of Godfrey's banishment.
Most people say he was simply cast aside after he ran out of enemies to fight, but this CAN'T be all there was to it, because Raya Lucaria still existed.
A FAR better explanation is that Godfrey began to show signs of disobedience. Godfrey was a man of instinct and emotion. Could such a man have sat idle while his children were imprisoned and his comrades reviled by the very order HE helped build?
No.
And so Godfrey began to visit his Omen children in secret, where he told them stories of their lineage and their origins.
In Morgott his stories instilled a Lord's sense of duty for the Erdtree and everything it could be.
In Mohg, his stories instilled an Omen's sense of pride for the Crucible, and everything it once was.
Until Marika learned of her husband's treachery, and the Omen Twins never saw their father again.
EDITED IN EXTRA OBSERVATION:
Someone pointed out that Serosh exists to channel Godfrey's emotions, and what's the first thing we hear/see when we approach Godfrey holding his son? Serosh roaring in anger. Beneath that kingly countenance, Godfrey is a lot more distraught than he's capable of showing.
on a more serious note who would you guys like actually marry in elden ring?

Update to an Incredible Elden Ring Mod that improves Morgott's fight:
So, Theres a mod that improves Morgott's Bossfight, chief among them, adding him SUMMONING A SHADE OF GODFERY/HOARAH LOUX to attack with him, alongside a ton of speed, attack, and strength buffs.
And Now they've updated it so he summons Hoarah Loux in the second phase, and it's GLORIOUS
and it works So well in lore, with him summoning the spirit of his father to help him fight.....should have been the final boss.
An absolutely beautiful birthday Morgott from @bora-in-tamriel, isn't he stunning? :D Not part of TGH, just a snapshot of an affectionate moment. Love to see him happy. ❤️
Forever thinking about a Warrior!Tarnished idolizing Hoarah Loux, and feeling the immense grief and the immense honor for being able to give both Elden Lord Godfrey and the Chieftain of the Badlands Hoarah Loux an honorable death.
Once they become Elden Lord, I imagine they build a mausoleum, with Morgott's grave by his own.
Pic is taken when I was still messing with the screenshot functions of the PS5 and took this leap shot of Margit, before he extinguished my meager flame.
Normally I wouldn't put this up but there is something majestic about the leap :D. Can't put my finger on it :p.
