Anor Londo: Arrival

From the landing to the first bonfire, over the chapel rafters and down the spiral tower.

Anor Londo opens with a long climb down to its first bonfire, then a one-way trip: down an elevator, up a narrow flying buttress, across the chapel's rafters and onto a spiral tower that turns with a lever. The tall shielded knights (Sentinels) leave you alone unless provoked, so you can walk around them or pull them one at a time. Never strike the woman at the first bonfire: she keeps that fire burning.

Bonfire: Anor LondoHidden spoiler – activate to revealAreaMissablePoint of no returnMinor spoiler
Location
Anor Londo · Bonfire room – Where the Batwing Demons set you down, at the top of a long stairway (a Batwing Demon waits there to fly you back to Sen's if you talk to it), take the stairs down past a Sentinel and go through the door on the left, then the door on the right into the great courtyard. The bonfire is in the big doorway on the left, with the Knightess beside it. Rest here before anything else.
Why you can lose it
Rest here, and never attack the Knightess: if she dies, this fire stays out for the rest of the run.
Point of no return
Beating Gwyn, Lord of Cinder, then lighting the bonfire or walking out of his arena: either ends this run at once and starts the next one.
Requires
Summary
The first bonfire in Anor Londo. Its Fire Keeper, the Darkmoon Knightess, refills ten Estus without kindling.

One way to the spiral tower

Fill your Estus before you take the elevator. Once you drop from the flying buttress onto the chapel balcony there is no way back to the bonfire until you have crossed the rafters and turned the spiral tower, a long stretch with Painting Guardians and a long fall on both sides.

Cross them, hitting the chandelier's chain (never jump onto it), climb down the ladder on the right at the end, and go through the fog gate and over the bridge to the lever at the top of the tower. Turn it counter-clockwise, beat the Gargoyle that attacks after the cutscene, and turn it counter-clockwise once more.
Requires

About this guide

Three runs. The first is the full walk: every area, Artorias of the Abyss, every covenant, all four spell collections and the ten weapon-upgrade trophies, ending at the Kiln. New Game+ is a leaner run for the other ending and the last miracle. A short third run stops once the last Soul of Sif has been turned into a weapon. A few trophy weapons and covenant offerings only come from enemies, so expect some farming.
