Quick Shadow of the Erdtree theory:

I’m looking at the shape of the…thing this guy’s been impaled with, and you know what the asymmetrical, curved, pointy shape reminds me of? And the golden, shimmery, sparkling quality it has?

And this makes me wonder: could this spiky golden thing impaled through this guy have once been an attempt to create some sort of anti-black knife, imbued with holy power, made with the purpose of either healing Those Who Live in Death/returning them to the Erdtree, or giving them a true death?
