Check Greirat of the Undead Settlement for detailed information about his side quest. |

| Sit at the first bonfire after the bridge, then go back to the bridge and get summoned by her using her summon sign. Kill Creighton the Wanderer and speak to her at Firelink. | Sirris of the Sunless Realms | |
|
Anri of Astora & Yuria of Londor | |
| Talk to him in a kitchen near a lake-like area and share an Estus Soup with him. If you want Grierat saved during his pillage in Ithyrill of the Boreal valley, do NOT talk to him. You can still take estus soup without talking to him. Talking to him will cause him to nap and not be alert to save Grierat. However, another way to save Grierat is to have Ubreakable Patches save him. | Siegward of Catarina / Greirat of the Undead Settlement | |
| Irithyll Dungeon | You can talk to him in a cell. | Siegward of Catarina |

| Anor Londo | Perform the "wedding" ceremony. Talk to Yuria. Causes 'Usurpation of Fire' Ending. | Anri of Astora |
| After Aldrich is slain, go back to the Undead Settlement near the Pit of Hollows (don't teleport directly into boss area, boss needs to be dead and you need to have the Transposing Kiln). Get summoned by Sirris in the small room before the boss area. Hodrick is a tough fight, and it's entirely possible he will kill Sirris, so approach this fight carefully. After that speak with her at Firelink. | Sirris of the Sunless Realms | |
| Lothric Castle | You can send Greirat to scavenge for the third time to Lothric Castle. He will die if he goes; there is no way to save him. Doing so will allow you to find Greirat's Ashes which will allow the Shrine Handmaid to sell Exploding and Splintering Bolts, along with every other item Greirat used to sell. | Greirat of the Undead Settlement |
| Get the Divine Braille Tome of Lothric. Give tomes to Irina in Firelink, buy holy or dark miracles, depending on if you want good or bad ending. | Irina of Carim and Eygon of Carim | |
| Her grave can be found after Twin Princes boss fight. | Sirris of the Sunless Realms | |
| Return to Rosaria's Chamber after you reach Anor Londo bonfire and pick up the Black Eye Orb in front of her. You can use the Black Eye Orb to invade him in the room above Aldrich's bonfire and kill him. You cannot get to this part of the quest without giving 1 Pale Tongue to Rosaria, and once you do, it will break Sirris's quest line. So do not complete this step until Sirris is dead. |
