Wait to see which fragment will be pelted by a golem. From this position you can see an item and the stairs to the left - but do not run there yet, because first you can find an easy shortcut to the bonfire.
Once the fire goes out, go towards w hole in the wall to the right. Slide down.
Light the bonfire. From this place you can go back up through a chamber with swinging blades - fortunately you do not have to go through the trap again.
Go back to a place, where you get to the bonfire from. Now choose the stairs to the left.
Stop in the middle of the stairs to explore the area.
<br>After another bomb explodes, run up and go to the right, along the wall.
You'll encounter a black knight with a large shield. Most of his blows can be blocked. In fact you might circle around him until you get behind his back and then attack him.
Behind the knight to the left there're is a ladder down.
If you choose to go there, you'll reach and optional part of this location - a tower guarded by Ricard the Archer. A fight with him is not difficult, if you control your Stamina, block his blows and counterattack (it is best to use previously found Lighting Spear). He drops Ricard's Rapier. In the tower you can find also Divine Blessing and Rare Ring of Sacrifice.
Return to the location, where you were pelted with a fire bomb for the last time. Run to the stairs leading to the right.
