Lords of cinder

[Maui]

Would someone be kind enough to tell me the order I fight the lords of cinder?

[Ambugaton]

I usually do Abyss Watchers > Aldrich (still hate that fight) > Yhorm > Prince. But there's no reason to do any particular order I don't think

[ChubbNutt]

There isn't really an order. You will always fight Abyss Watchers first and the Princes last. Aldrich and Yhorm can be fought in any order.

Thanks everyone, now I'm not worried I did something wrong.

Any order work fine, just remember that after you kill the 4th lord of cinder you will be teleported to Dancer with as many estus you have left so, if you want to have better chance there and not losing your souls (and maybe die by being invaded or by a huge mistake before you try Dancer again . . . or maybe even try Dancer again and get killed before getting your souls back), do Dancer before the 4th lord of cinder.

I didn't know that, still on my first playthrough. So that is some good info.

Is there a point to keep Emma alive after you get the small banner and the way of the blue?

Nope. She is commonly killed before even reaching the swamp for the sake of going that route early because there is a hidden area just past Dancer to the left (past the boss just past Dancer, aka a lil past Ocerious) for the best ring in the game Prisoner Chain (which is the only ring that is exceptionally powerful, particularly at low SL because it grants flat stat bonuses... 15 SL worth).
