The mission begins with defeating a few bandits. After clearing them, talk to the woman hiding at the top of the apartment. She will ask you to search for several men who have been captured.
You will need to visit a few different locations, and at each one, your task is the same: defeat the enemies and free the prisoners. Follow the directions on the map and continue fighting through waves of opponents.
Once you have successfully rescued four men, the mission will be complete. Completing this quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Melee Charm, +8 Leather, and the trophy A Wealthy Man Has All He Needs.
A Wealthy Man Has All He Needs
The mission begins with a conversation with a man. Afterward, speak with a few residents of the camp. One of them will try to run away. Catching him shouldn’t be difficult. If you want, you can temporarily stop him by shooting him. Even without killing him, he may pause long enough for you to catch up peacefully.
The man will reveal the location of a Mongol camp. Go there and eliminate all the enemies to continue your mission. Once the area is clear, head to the beach. You will find a couple held captive, free them. They won’t know what happened to your quest giver’s family, so the search continues.
Follow the trail to a rock where dead bodies are located. Examine the corpses to learn who they were, then take that information back to your quest giver. This will complete the mission. Completing the quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Prosperity Charm, and +6 Leather.
The Generosity of Lady Sanjo
After talking to Lady Sanjo, you will take a short ride to your destination. Your goal is to find a destroyed house located between some rocks. Enter the building through a hole in the roof. As you start talking to a man inside, other enemies will appear. Defeat all of them and search their bodies to find a map. Return to Lady Sanjo with the map to complete the mission. Completing this quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Stealth Charm, and +14 Linen.
Flesh and Stone
Your mission begins by finding the sculptor’s house. To reach it, climb to the top using the uneven rock shelves. Once at the top, turn left and exit the forest, where you will find a small wooden house.
When you arrive, you will see that the house has been taken over by Mongols. Defeat all of them and search the area. Once the enemies are cleared, enter the house to find Master Izo. Free him and talk to him to continue the mission.
You and Master Izo will then go on a search. Along the way, a group of Mongols will attack, defeat them and continue until you find the Master’s son. This will complete the mission. Completing the quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Charm of Defense, and +6 Leather.
Peace for the Divine
Start the quest by examining the area near a destroyed shrine, where you will find a dead fox. Take a close look at all the damage.
Soon, another fox will appear and lead you toward the Mongols. Follow it and quietly eliminate all the enemies without alerting anyone. Continue following the foxes until you reach their camp, where you will find a dozen skinned animals. Defeat all the bandits to avenge them.
After the enemies are gone, you can approach one of the surviving animals and pet it. This will complete the mission. Completing this quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Prosperity Charm, and +14 Linen.
Fit for the Khan
Start the quest by talking to the man at the temple. He will tell you about Khotun Khan’s armor and show several locations on your map where pieces of it can be found.
Your first stop is General Dogshin’s camp. Capture the camp and then face the General in a duel.
After that, visit all the marked locations to collect the remaining armor pieces: Morimae Brewery, General Bartu’s Camp, and Kawachi Whaling Village.
Once you have all the pieces, return to the quest giver. He will assemble the armor for you, giving you a powerful set that can be very useful in combat. Completing the quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend and the Mongol Commander’s Armor.
The Cost of Fear
The quest begins by heading to an abandoned enemy camp to collect some resources. There won’t be any enemies to fight at this point, so you can gather everything safely.
When you return to the frightened woman, you discover that her house has been set on fire. A group of Mongols is nearby, so you need to defeat all of them.
After clearing the area, search for any wounded people and talk to them. This will complete the quest. Completing this mission rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Stealth Charm, and +8 Leather.
A Father’s Choice
Start the quest by talking to the quest giver. He will explain the task in detail. After your conversation, you will notice Mongol tracks, follow them carefully.
The tracks will lead you to a Mongol village. Defeat all the enemies there, then find Chut and free him. After that, go to his father to deliver a message. You won’t find anyone at first, so follow the tracks further until you reach a cliff.
Reaching the cliff completes the quest. Completing this mission rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Stealth Charm, and +8 Leather.
Hidden in Snow
Start the quest by going to the mill in Sago and talking to the quest giver. He will explain what you need to do. Your first task is to find a man named Sota, who is waiting in a building behind the wall.
Next, search the town thoroughly. You can explore on your own to find resources, records, and interesting items, or follow a man waiting by the path. He will lead you to one of the buildings, where you will need to examine bales containing a corpse and a rope. In the next building, you will find dead bodies, broken doors, and shredded materials. Tracks in front of the buildings will guide you to a Mongol camp.
Your job is to defeat all the Mongols and save the villagers. You can do this quietly to avoid open conflict. Using the bow and hallucination darts is especially effective, as they can make the enemies fight each other, making your task easier.
Once you have rescued the woman, you can return to the mill in Sago. There, you must catch Sota and bring him to justice to complete the mission. Completing this quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend, a Lesser Stealth Charm, and +18 Linen.
A Debt Repaid
Start the tale by talking to a wounded bandit you find by the side of the road. He will tell you his story, and you can choose to help him get revenge.
Once the mission begins, explore the enemy camp. Look for weak points and observe the positions of their forces. Then, go to all the marked locations and eliminate all the opponents. New reinforcements will arrive, and you will need to defeat them as well.
When a large group of enemies appears, use your special abilities. Dance of Wrath and Heavenly Strike work particularly well in this situation. After defeating all the enemies, the mission will end. You can then collect your rewards. Completing this quest rewards you with a small increase in Legend and +14 Linen.
