Need help with The Tale of Lady Masako in Ghost of Tsushima? Follow our walkthrough to find Lady Masako, uncover the Adachi clan massacre, and get revenge.
Alright, let's dive into 'The Tale of Lady Masako.' This is a big one, marking the start of Jin's Journey in Act 1 and kicking off the Masako Tales. It's all about helping Lady Masako get justice for her slaughtered clan.You'll start by heading to the Adachi Estate. It seems quiet at first, but don't let your guard down! You'll be ambushed by hidden guards in the guest house. After you deal with them, you'll notice they weren't Mongols or simple bandits. Jin will investigate the main house and stables, finding clues that point to archers chasing someone on horseback. Keep an eye out, because Lady Masako herself will appear, nearly taking you out with an arrow! She'll demand to know who you are.
Once you explain about Lord Adachi's death and Lord Shimura's imprisonment, Masako will reveal the devastating truth: her own people massacred Clan Adachi. Even though she's hesitant, Jin will insist on helping her seek revenge. You'll both ride to where she buried her family, a somber moment before heading to the Golden Temple.
At the Golden Temple, Masako will tell you to find the monk Sogen and the armorer. You'll speak with Junshin, the Temple leader, who points you to Sogen. Sogen will deny seeing anyone suspicious, but don't worry, we'll find the truth.
The armorer will give you the Samurai Clan Armor, which belonged to one of Masako's sons. After that, you'll meet back up with Masako, and together you'll follow Sogen to an old inn. Here's where things get intense: you'll fight the remaining assassins and then confront Sogen. After a tense exchange, Masako will exact brutal revenge. Be prepared for that.
Inside the inn, you'll find spare weapons, food, and a crucial paper with a list of conspirators and an unknown clan symbol. This symbol is the key Masako saw on her family's killers, suggesting a rival clan's involvement. With this new information, Lady Masako agrees to help Jin free Lord Shimura in exchange for his help in avenging her family.
