  7. 7
    The house on your left as you entered this area leads to a sub boss and allows you to open the gate from earlier.

    Continue along the path to a wide open space. Look left for a path to a chest and an enemy.

  20. 20
    Finally, a Yoki and Mitsume yazura will appear, causing a dark realm. Defeating them dispels it.

Boss Strategy: Tokichiro

Tokichiro is a difficult opponent due to his gimmicks and two spirits. At the start or as he takes damage, he will use spirit stones to buff himself, increasing his defense and offense. He attacks like a normal dual wielder or sword wielder but has several burst abilities. One summons his monkey spirit to attack you with fire, and another imbues his weapon with fire, allowing him to use a powerful flame blast directly in front.

Once he is down to half his health, he switches to dual blades and uses his second spirit, which creates light traps on the ground.

Tips
  • When you start, speak to the man at the gate to receive an item.
  • Use the shrines to save your progress and heal.
  • The minimap (a small radar (your minimap with nearby blips and threats marked) on your HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap)) can help you locate enemies and objectives.
  • Look for corpses to find useful items and keys.
  • Be aware of your surroundings to avoid traps and ambushes.
  • Use cover (objects that block attacks) to protect yourself from ranged enemies.
  • Headshots on certain enemies can deal critical damage.
  • Cutscenes will play at key story moments.
  • Checkpoints are automatically saved points in the mission.
  • A wanted level (the star icons in the top-right showing how aggressively police pursue you) may appear if you attract too much attention.
  • DLC (Downloadable Content) may offer additional missions or content.
  • NPCs (Non-Player Characters) can provide quests or assistance.
  • Enemies will respawn (be brought back to life at a checkpoint after death) if you leave and re-enter certain areas or use a shrine.
  • Waypoints may guide you to your next objective.
  • Free roam (the open-world mode where you move and play without an active mission) is not available in this mission; it is a linear progression.
  • Mod (modifications) are not officially supported and can cause issues.
