Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the starting SHRINE (waypoint (a marker on your map you've manually placed as a destination)), note the hole (broken staircase) above and head downwards. The door is locked.
  2. 2
    To the left is a [_CORPSE_]. To the right, defeat an Amrita Fiend.
  3. 3
    In the room past the Fiend, break boxes for another [_CORPSE_].
  4. 4
    Past a FLOOR TRAP (which a Dweller will activate), the path splits into stairs, a back corner, and a pathway to the right.
  5. 5
    Go up the steps. Defeat the Fiend and collect the [_CORPSE_] at the top.
  6. 6
    Fight or charm the Nurikabe Wall to access a room with a [_CHEST_] and a staircase.
  7. 7
    Head downstairs, defeat a Dweller in the back, and find a [_HUNTER KODAMA_].
  8. 8
    Open the door to return near the first SHRINE.
  9. 9
    Return to the three-way path split. Take the path on the right (doubling back).

    Head PAST the nearby door into the basement, collecting a [_CORPSE_] on the way down.
  12. 12
    In the basement, watch for a SPIDER on the ceiling.

    The first two cells contain [_CORPSE x2_]. The next has a Dweller. The cell across is LOCKED.
  14. 14
    Note two FIENDS and a Kodama in the basement area.

    Collect the [_BIG CHEST_] in the room after the cell.
  17. 17
    Head back upstairs to the door near the corner.

    Enter the room. To your left is a [_CORPSE_]. A Fiend is in front. Defeat it.

    Ahead, another Fiend and a red circle (a lantern spitting Spirits) are present. Shoot the Fiend to lure it closer and defeat it.
  20. 20
    Go right into the hallway (watch for a drop) and defeat the lantern/spirits.
  21. 21
    In the room with the gap you entered from, go past the door. To the right is another door and a nearby [_CORPSE_].
