Behind the blacksmith you'll see a chest. You can get to it by walking along the wall. Take Hawk Ring out of it.
Outside the chamber two gargoyles are lurking.
You can open here a shortcut - a small iron grate.
After visiting the blacksmith, you can go to the main part of the location. There are two giant knights - a fight with them looks the same as previously. Before the fight you may kill and archer, who can be found on the stairs in the direction of the blacksmith.
The problem with fight with two giant knights is that probably both of them will notice you - in case of problems, run up the stairs.
After the fight, open the large door using the lever (it is valuable shortcut).
Once you're ready, start the fight with boss Ornstein & Smough.
After killing demons go up the elevator (doesn't matter which one). [1] Light up the bonfire and go through the door. Talk to the queen. [2]
She will give you a very useful item - Lordvessel. It allows you to teleport between selected bonfires.
