Bonus - Painted World of Ariamis - p. 2 | Walkthrough Dark Souls Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In the chamber below you'll find Painting Guardian Set (in the chest).
Return down and exit on the other side of the building. Run towards a round tower and go down over its left side.
You'll encounter there human-like crow - kill him.
On the bridge in the distance you'll see an undead dragon. If you approach him, he will run on you furiously. Retreat.
It is best to kill him with a bow but you need much patience and many arrows. On the bridge guarded by the dragon you'll find Bloodshield among other things.
Now go down to the lower part of the round tower. [1] Go through fog there. [2]
Behind fog you'll encounter a large group of monsters with shields and spears (Phalanx). You have to attack them from side or back - and you have to be very careful because there are many of them and repelling their attack might be very difficult. So you can go back and lure them towards the door or run outside and circle around them, hitting from time to time.
From this place you can go in several directions. First head to the field with a corpse on a pole. Kill all enemies there and pick up souls. [1] Behind the wall you'll find a spell Pyromancy - Acid Surge. [2]
Next open the door on the left. You'll create a shortcut to the bonfire.
Return to the courtyard with Phalanx and use the side stairs. [1] Inside explore the outside part. [2]
Then move deeper [1] until you find a ladder down. [2]
At the bottom you'll find Pinwheels. Go slowly deeper to lure out single enemies. It is best to pin them to wall.
After eliminating enemies, pick up items and use the reel on one of the columns.
Next to the mechanism you'll find a hidden passage - hit the wall to open it.
Inside the tunnel look for another secret passage to the right. [1] If you go this path along the right wall, you'll encounter next Pinwheel and an item - Annex Key. [2]
