NPC information
Laurentius of the Great Swamp relocates to Firelink Shrine after being rescued from the Depths. Tell him "no" when he asks if you find magics unsavory and he will give you a Pyromancy Flame. If you talk to him while possessing a pyromancy exclusive to Quelana, he will go mad and relocate to Blighttown where he will attack you on sight. Be sure to buy his two exclusive pyromancies before this happens.
Quelana of Izalith appears in Blighttown once you have upgraded your Pyromancy Flame to +10.
Eingyi can be found below the second Bell of Awakening behind an illusory wall that leads to the Daughter of Chaos bonfire and Quelaag's Sister. Tell him "yes" when he asks if you are a new servant and he will allow you to pass. In order to buy items from him, you must get infected by a hostile egg carrier enemy (allowing it to do a grab attack that stabs you in the head). After about five minutes, during which time your character will scratch their head, a giant egg will eventually bloom over your head. After talking to Eingyi like this, he will give you an egg vermifuge which can be used to cure the condition.
