I´m now in what looks like a church, in Undead Parish...just defeated a big black knight that was guarding a corpse with an item called 'Fire Keeper Soul'...it says 'boosts power of Estus Flask"...how does it work and what does it do exactly?...does my HP restoration get better?...is the effect permanent?

Each Fire Keeper soul boosts your Flasks restoration capacities by +1 (aprox extra 100 HP). To make that effect viable, you'll need to bring that soul to any Fire keepr in the game, such as the one on Firelink Shrine, on the bottom of the stairs next to the bonfire. They'll have an option called Reinforce Estus Flasks, use that and they'll be reinforced. 

You can only reinforce them to +7 though.

Ok, so when I do that, the effect is permanent, right?...for the rest of the game, whenever I use a Flask, I gain back more health than before, right?

And lestat, another thing, in that same church, I freed a knight named Lautrec...then I found him on Firelink Shrine and he gave me a Sunlight Medal as reward for freeing him..I´m not exactly sure what this medal is for, could you help me out here?
