Asylum demon got me for the first death.
More interestingly perhaps is my nature betraying me. I actually found the path to the Burg first and got all the way to the first fog gate no problemo. Even survived the ambushes below with the rubbish and everything. That's when my brain caused some deaths. I think...."fog gate" in Demon's meant new area, boss or something else drastic. Figuring this area was about to get serious I wanted to explore my options. Having poked around firelink I knew there was an elevator down and a small set of ruined buildings near the fire. I decided to see what was down. After the ghosts punked me several times I realized that I couldn't hurt them at all. Then I figured out the transient curse use. Tried one, still got roughed up pretty good. Realized I didn't have a whole lotta curses to work with and said, "let's try those buildings." Found the loot under the elevators and then of course the graveyard. Got jacked up by skeletons and said..."that sucked, but didn't I see some shinies?" Persevered until I had the shinies with suicide runs. Tried to legit fight the skellies again. Realized that while I CAN kill them, it was a huge pain and there were quite a few of them when common sense kicked in....
"Wait, wasn't there a fog door in the Burg?"
