Sanctuary Garden and Oolacile Sanctuary

Through the dark portal in Darkroot Basin into the Artorias of the Abyss expansion: the Sanctuary Guardian, then the Oolacile Sanctuary with Elizabeth's shop.

The Artorias of the Abyss expansion opens from Darkroot Basin once the Hydra is dead, Dusk is free and the Broken Pendant from the Duke's Archives is in your pack. The portal only goes one way, but every bonfire inside can be warped to and from, so nothing here locks the rest of the run. Most of the expansion is optional; what counts here is the road through it: the Royal Wood beyond the Sanctuary holds Titanite Slabs that the upgrade trophies need, so the Sanctuary Guardian has to fall. Never attack Elizabeth or Dusk.

Location
Darkroot Basin · Golden golem's cove – Darkroot Basin's bonfire can't be warped to, so warp to the Undead Parish bonfire. Go down past Andre's anvil and through the Titanite Demon's doorway into Darkroot Garden, follow the path to the left and take the turning on the right that drops down the cliff: the zigzag path ends on the Basin floor, beside the tunnel with the Basin bonfire. Walk on along the path past the hill with Havel's watchtower and through the misty woods to the lake, then wade along the left-hand cliff wall to its far end, where you broke the golden golem. A dark portal floats there now: examine it and you are pulled through.
Requires
Summary
A dark portal in the cove where Dusk was freed; with the Broken Pendant in your pack, it carries you into the expansion.

Sanctuary GuardianHidden spoiler – activate to revealBossDLC: Artorias Of The AbyssMinor spoiler
Location
Sanctuary Garden · Guardian's arena – From the Sanctuary Garden bonfire, a short path with no enemies leads to the fog. Inside, the beast opens with a burst of lightning bolts: keep moving sideways in one direction to dodge them. Fight from its flank, where its poisonous tail can't reach, block or back away from its flurries of blows and hit once each flurry ends. Its leaps can break your lock-on.
Requires
Summary
A winged, horned beast that guards the way into Oolacile. Required: it stands between you and the Royal Wood's slabs. Its Guardian Soul makes no weapon; keep it or use it for souls.

Guardian TailWeaponDLC: Artorias Of The Abyss
Location
Sanctuary Garden · Guardian's arena – Cut the tail during the fight: roll aside when it dives at you and swing at the tail as it lands with its back turned. Missed it? Once Knight Artorias is dead and you have rested, two smaller Guardians appear in this arena and their tails give it too (you can shoot them from the tunnel by the bonfire); the route doesn't bring you back here, so that trip is your own.
Requires
Summary
A poisonous whip cut from the Sanctuary Guardian's tail.

Dusk's sorceries, a second chance

Elizabeth sells the five sorceries Dusk sells (Hidden Weapon, Hidden Body, Cast Light, Repair and Chameleon), minus any you already bought. All five count toward Wisdom of a Sage, so buy any you are still missing here. Never attack Dusk, here or back in Darkroot Basin: if she dies, Elizabeth's shop is gone for the rest of the run.

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.
