Quelaan, aKa the Fair Lady is weak, blind and wouldn't pose much threat, however she isn't behind bars ;3 Anastacia is the only Fire Keeper behind bars and that is simply because she was imprisoned for speaking Blasphemy.

i had a conversation about Lautrec with a friend yesterday and we both wished that the whole Story about him and Anastacia would've been explained more.

My Friends theory was pretty much the same as one found already in this Discussion.

Mine then involved the fact that he's found near a Dead Firekeeper and pretty fast seeks out the next Firekeeper. i Quote:

"You know what i think? The first time we find Lautrec he is in a prison cell close to a Dead Firekeeper. the next time we meet him he's at the Firelink shrine looking at Anastacia who he will kill when you find the Firekeeper soul in the Depths.

Now i assume he either killed the Firekeeper in the Depths or that in the Undead Parish first, doesn't matter too much but both times he could not obtain the Soul for reasons, in the Parish he was imprisoned before he could take the soul and when he is finally freed the Chosen Undead already took the soul and so, to not reveal his intentions, he acts grateful to the chosen Undead, probably only to backstab him later. In the depths it's likely he was interupted by something down there and had to run or he would've died, planning to return he gets down there and maybe sees the Chosen undead get that Soul as well so he decides to go to the next Firekeeper he knows and kills her, this time successfully running off with the Soul to Anor Londo. Now if he's really on a Quest to collect Firekeeper souls he would try attacking the Firekeeper in Anor Londo but she'd pose a threat to him considering she's not as defenseless as the other Firekeepers so Lautrec runs off and hides, this would explain the Souvenir of Reprisal found when killing him, by attacking the Firekeeper he made himself sinful if he was not already a sinner for killing the other Firekeepers. It's highly possible the next Target would've been the Fair Lady which brings us to the reason he maybe traversed the Depths initially, maybe he didn't really wanna kill that Firekeeper but instead found himself in a lucky situation, his initial plan may have been, after hearing there's a pretty defenseless Firekeeper in Queelag's Domain, he intended to go there, which requires the Key found after defeating the Gaping Dragon. Anyways, i have no explanation why you'd find his Armor Set above the Boss Arena or Ornstein and Smough but there's only two reasons you do: either he somehow got up there without fighting those two or he actually defeated the Ornstein and Smough of his world. and just died from you killing him."

Now after i explained that my friend came up with this explanation:

What if the Goddess Fina, The Goddess of Beauty and Love, saw what happened to Lordran and saw the bad the Undead bring upon this world, so her Plan to stop all this was by preventing the Undead from surviving and to do this she ordered her Faithful followers to extingush the Bonfires all around Lordran. Which means killing all the Firekeepers of the World so that the Bonfires will die out. then, Anastacia, a Firekeeper herself spoke 'Blasphemy' about Fina which led the people of the Village to cut out her tongue but for some reason keep her around anyways and imprison her below Firelink shrine. But as Fina wants them dead she still sent out her Followers to kill the Firekeepers, sadly the only one who followed her still was Lautrec who maybe had a crush on Fina or maybe it was even a relationship.

So Lautrec travels out into Lordran to kill the Firekeepers and try ending the Curse of the Undead that way."

I really wish we had more information about Lautrec, he seems like an ass and stuff but maybe he really had a good reason to try and kill them.
