    Return to the shrine.
  13. 13
    Head up the slope and kill the raider. Loot the corpse.

    Defeat the patrolling archer.
  17. 17
    Enter the mayor's yard. Knock the rock off the well to the left for an item.
  18. 18
    Wait for and kill the patrolling raider in the yard.
  19. 19
    Clear out enemies near the entrance: get the spearmen's attention with a rock, then kill the Samurai Axeman, the raider near the corpse, and the final raider.
  20. 20
    Loot the corpse after the last raider.
  21. 21
    Go to the shed in the corner of the back yard. Kill the raider inside and loot the Big Chest.
  22. 22
    Loot the corpse in the shed to receive the "Equipment Weight" lesson (do not exceed equipment load).

    Loot the corpse just inside the house and another corpse past that.

  34. 34
    Travel across the roof to a corpse, then drop down near the shrine.
  35. 35
    Enter the village. Take the right path to destroy boxes and fight a Dweller. Let it come to you if you advance too far.

    Certain Yokai do not respawn (be brought back to life at a checkpoint after death) after using a shrine.

    Knock the rock by the well down for an item.

  • Study Yokai movements before attacking; counter their attacks.
  • Perform a Ki Pulse to dispel Yokai Realm Mist.
  • Be mindful of your equipment load to avoid becoming slow and vulnerable.
  • Use houses for cover when fighting the Ninja Yokai.
