The satisfying sensation of absorbing a soul from behind you tells you the success of the first strike. Your sword bears down on the second hollow but it survives the blow. It drops its bow and pulls out a short blade attempting to place it within you. The hollow you had left behind also charges into the fray.

You awaken at the bonfire in the graveyard, it's going to be a long trek back.

White Soapstone: In Legrion, the flow of time is distorted, and the White Sign Soapstone allows Undead to assist one another. Leave a summoning sign through which other undead can summon you into their world.

Estus Flask: The undead treasure these dull green flasks, which promise survival in a land dominated by death. Estus flasks provide swift healing, and are replenished at bonfires. You have a number of estus flasks equal to half your level, rounded up. You can drink an estus flask as a bonus action, which restores hit points equal to 1d6 + your Constitution modifier. All empty estus flasks restore when you rest at a bonfire.

Fading Soul: The fading soul of a lost Undead who has gone Hollow and still. Use to 100xp or for trading. The soul is the source of all life, and even in undeath, or hollowing, the mind seeks souls.

With the speed that you rode away from the bonfire you did not attract the attention of the hollows who attacked you before, but they are certainly prowling near the path (or some others from deeper in the fog have taken their place).

Willed yourself back to life? More like have been slain and reborn at the bonfire in the endless grind of the curse. Though your mount is magnificent.

Humanity: This black sprite is called humanity, but little is known about its true nature. If the soul is the source of all life, then what distinguishes the humanity we hold within ourselves? Offer to a bonfire to restore humanity.

I have no need for the arrows just as I had no need for the humanity. Keep them, you may find a use.

How about Nirmon, the name of the east wind where I'm from.

Gallek gives you a nod as you ride off. You thunder towards the the gates. This time it is open, as you left it and the hollows on the wall can only shoot down on you briefly. You hug close to your horse and their shots go miss you.

Another two arrows come down of the wall. One shot goes wide, the other bounces of your armour.
