Dark Souls – Do You Get Artorias’ Soul Back After Killing Ciaran?

dark-souls

After defeating Artorias, you can find Ciaran paying her respects to the grave of Artorias. When you speak to her, she asks for the soul, so that she may "pay her proper respects".

If I give her the soul, and then kill her, do I get Artorias' soul back?

Best Answer

Looks like no:

If you wish to kill her or simply don't care, killing her is advisable since you gain everything she gives you if you don't kill her plus her armour and you keep Artorias' soul.

Update I've tested it personally, you will never receive soul back:

I've just given her soul and received two daggers: enter image description here

Then I killed her and get only set and 10k souls, no Soul of Artorias. enter image description here
