Heide's Tower of Flame

Heide's Tower of Flame is a location in Dark Souls II.

Description
Heide's Tower of Flame is a semi-flooded/ruined area filled with towers and arches, reminiscent of Anor Londo from Dark Souls. The area is patrolled exclusively by large knights who are connected with the Blue Sentinels.

There are three levers in this area: two can make the Dragonrider fight much easier by expanding the size of his arena, and the third lowers the drawbridge to the Cathedral of Blue and the Old Dragonslayer boss. All three are located near Sentinel Knights and narrow walkways, so extreme caution is advised. The Sentinel Knights will also actively pursue fleeing players right up to the Cathedral entrance.

No-man's Wharf can be reached through a series of tunnels underneath the tower after defeating the Dragonrider and going across a small bridge next to a bonfire above his arena. Lucatiel of Mirrah may be encountered next to the first bonfire of this adjacent area, depending on the player's progression.

Adjacent locations

 * Majula
 * Cathedral of Blue
 * No-Man's Wharf - Requires Dragonrider's defeat.

Bonfires

 * The first bonfire is located to the right of the area entrance if coming from Majula, past a Sentinel Knight and down a set of ruined stairs.
 * The second bonfire is located above the Dragonrider and cannot be accessed until he is vanquished. A set of narrow spiral stairs will take you up a level, where both the bonfire and Licia of Lindeldt can be found.

Characters

 * Licia of Lindeldt - can be found upstairs after beating the Dragonrider next to the second bonfire. She sells a large variety of miracles, as well as a talisman. Exhausting her dialogue will see her relocate to Majula, next to the contraption that cannot be activated. Speaking to her here will open up a route to Huntsman's Copse, for a fee of 2000 souls.

Boss

 * Dragonrider
 * Old Dragonslayer

Notable Items

 * Sublime Bone Dust (Drop from a non-respawning Sentinel Knight wielding a mace)
