In-game description

Soul of the Ash Maiden,
Fire Keeper of Firelink Shrine.

A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm.
Was the Ash Maiden locked in this dark prison
for some transgression, or by her own will?

Soul of the Darkmoon Knightess,
Fire Keeper of Anor Londo.

A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm. Her brass armor
serves to disguise this ghastly form.

Soul of a Daughter of Chaos,
Fire Keeper of Quelaag's Domain.

A Fire Keeper's soul is a draw for humanity,
and held within their bosoms, below just a
thin layer of skin, are swarms of humanity
that writhe and squirm.
To her, the countless eggs which appeared
were cradles for each tiny humanity.

Soul of a long-lost Fire Keeper.

Each Fire Keeper is a corporeal manifestation
of her bonfire, and a draw for the humanity
which is offered to her. Her soul is gnawed
by infinite humanity, and can boost the power
of precious Estus Flasks.

It can be used to gain Humanity and restore HP
at the cost of losing the Fire Keeper soul to
reinforce the Estus Flasks.

Where to find

Treasure pickup

Undead Parish church

Enter the large Parish church beyond the armored-boar courtyard. Reach the ground-floor altar guarded by the heavily armored mace knight.
Defeat or draw away the knight and collect the soul from the corpse on the altar. The nearby lift opens the shortcut back to Firelink and Anastacia.

Treasure pickup

New Londo Ruins

Take Firelink's lower lift and cross the wooden bridges into the first ghost courtyard. A Transient Curse lets you fight the ghosts on this route.
Look along the right side for the narrow submerged walkway leading to a broken structure separated from the main platform. Follow it carefully and collect the soul from the corpse inside.
Retreat along the same narrow line; several ghosts can approach through the structure. Draining New Londo is not required for this pickup.

Treasure pickup

Blighttown waterwheel side

From the swamp bonfire, follow the wall to the moving waterwheel lift and ride it upward. Climb the short ladder at the top.
Continue past the Cragspider toward the stone-walled platforms occupied by blowdart snipers. Cross the wooden bridge and look for the ladder down to the lower enclosure.
Clear the fire-breathing dogs below and collect the soul from the corpse in the barred stone enclosure. Bring Blooming Purple Moss for the snipers' Toxic.

Treasure pickup

The Duke's Archives prison

Requirements

Have the Archive Tower Giant Cell Key.

Escape the prison tower after the first Seath encounter. Continue into the library rooms and find the chest containing Archive Tower Giant Cell Key near the route down to the crystal garden.
Return to the bottom of the prison tower, past the alarm mechanism and Pisacas. Open the giant cell where Logan was imprisoned and collect the soul inside.

Gift or encounter reward

Anor Londo, Lautrec invasion

After Anastacia is killed, take the Black Eye Orb from her cell below Firelink. Bring it into Anor Londo's cathedral hall before Ornstein and Smough.
Use the orb when it quivers and defeat Lautrec in the invaded world. Return with Anastacia's soul.
Bring this specific soul back to Anastacia's cell and choose to restore her if you want Firelink's bonfire and keeper back.

Consuming this soul or using it for reinforcement makes Anastacia's restoration impossible in that journey.

Gift or encounter reward

Anor Londo, Darkmoon Knightess

Find the brass-armored Fire Keeper beside the first Anor Londo bonfire, reached from the arrival steps.
Killing her drops her Fire Keeper Soul. Collect it at the encounter site.

Killing her extinguishes her bonfire and removes that reinforcement service for the journey.

Gift or encounter reward

Quelaag's Domain, the Fair Lady

After Quelaag's bell, go downstairs and strike the hidden wall to reveal the Daughter of Chaos bonfire. Answer yes to Eingyi to pass.
Quelaag's Sister is the Fire Keeper against the wall. Killing her drops her soul.

This ends her covenant and reinforcement services and extinguishes the bonfire. It can also make Eingyi hostile.

Notes

Seven distinct souls: There are seven separate native souls with this name: four world pickups and three tied to the named keepers. They are not interchangeable for Anastacia's revival, and duplicate copies of one identity do not stack in your carried inventory.
Estus reinforcement: Use a living Fire Keeper's Reinforce Estus Flask conversation option to spend a soul for one reinforcement level, up to +7. Simply consuming it does not perform that upgrade.
Direct consumption: Using one as an item restores HP and adds five carried Humanity. This spends the soul permanently, including its possible upgrade or revival use.
Safe progression: The four world pickups do not require killing a keeper. You can keep the named keepers alive, restore Anastacia and finish reinforcement over later journeys.
Service access: Keep at least one usable Fire Keeper available if you still need reinforcement. The named keepers' deaths have consequences beyond gaining an upgrade material.
