So, in order to open the gate to Drangleic Castle (Shrine of Winter) you'll need either the 4 Great Souls, or 1 million accumulated souls in that playtrough for NG, 2 mil for NG+, 3 mil for NG++ etc.

Question: is it possible to aquire all sorts of 'solid souls', like boss souls, and consume them in the next game so you can open the Shrine early on?
