I think the whole illusion thing is just a special power exclusive to the royal Omens. Morgott uses it to keep tabs on things outside of the capital (like us), Mohg uses it to proselytize and spread his message further.Leyndell Catacombs made me laugh out loud. FromSoft, you bastards.
This dungeon has two identical layers (actually, three, but the third one is pretty small), and it's not the first dungeon with this gimmick that I have encountered, but in this one the transition between layers is completely seamless (in the previous catacombs with this gimmick, you had to teleport between layers via magic chests).
But the funny part is that they put a bunch of dead enemies in the second layer that closely match what a (thorough) player would leave behind, to trick you. They even put a second omen "grieving" over the copy of the body of the first omen that you had killed.
Also, the boss of these catacombs is a wizard who is clearly a follower of Mohg. Maybe the Mohg illusion guarding the entrance to the Frenzied Flame dungeon really was put there by him, and not by Morgott as I had thought...
The clues are very open to interpretation.
As for the Mohg illusion's placement, I think the Omen brothers were able to agree on one thing before they left their birthplace, and went their separate ways: The Three Fingers need to be sealed away forever. That's why the entrance to the Frenzied Flame Proscription is blocked off by Morgott's magic, if he's still alive when you get there.
