Considering the fact that the Dark Soul was found in the First Flame alongside the Lord Souls, would not Humanity - fragments of the Dark Soul - be considered a form of soul? It's true that Humanity is different than souls in significant ways, but they are shards of what many consider a fourth Lord Soul. The fact that a single Humanity can temprarily return an Undead to human form, while many, many ordinary souls are needed to stave off hollowing can be chalked up to the fact that you are consming a shard of a Lord Soul, the strength of which has the power briefly return an Undead to human form. Feel free to contadict this notion with any solid evidence from the games. The concept of souls and humanity is a murky subject and it's very early in the morning here. =.=
