I revisited the Forest of Fallen Giants to see if I couldn’t best those damned turtle knights that blocked my path. As suspected the Greatsword chewed them up with the R2 attack keeping them at range and killing them in 2 hits. They were hiding a Bastard Sword (oh how I could’ve done with you early game) and some other bits and bobs. Also another bonfire (you can’t budge for tripping over bonfires in DS2!) which I reckon has something to do with warping back for a Covenant as (a) there’s no need to have a bonfire there and (b) there’s another one of those petrified giants there but this one allows you to interact (unlike the other 2) and it just says he is resting in peace. Maybe I need to have a certain item in my possession to join?
Back then to Things Betwixt to drop my new stones in the crows’ nest for which I received 3 different types of ore. Seems random what you get. Whilst there I went and killed the two upright hippo guys and they didn’t go down without a struggle. They were hiding a boat/coffin on the shore. As soon as I saw it I thought “Gravelord Covenant”. It let me get inside and close the lid but alas I didn’t travel anywhere. Maybe I need the equivalent of the Eyes of Death in my possession?
