At the very bottom of the prison tower in the Duke's Archives is a locked door, inside of which is the Fire Keeper Soul. You'll know you're in the right area if there are octopus monsters. Sadly, you won't have the key when you reach this area, as you don't get it until much later in the level.
There are a few areas that require a little bit of work before you unlock the ability to summon. Dukes is one. Even though you can set a sign as soon as you ride that first elevator up, you wont actually be able to summon for the real boss fight until you face him the first time.
You'll need to get the Archive Tower Giant Cell Key to unlock the cell, it's located behind the removable bookshelves leading to the Crystal Caves, right after the second bonfire. It's in the treasure chest closest to the lever that opens the descending staircase. Get back, unlock his cell and talk to him.
