You begin by talking to Daijiro near the river south of the Ohara Plains in the Tokachi Range. As you walk along the river, you will find Daijiro arguing with a settler. The settler declares that Daijiro has a bounty and offers the choice of either paying up or going to jail.

Daijiro, by his own admission, is broke. He wants you to bail him out of this situation, but he has no money. Instead, he offers you Lord Furuya’s armor, the Dragonfly Armor. You then bail Daijiro out of the situation, after which you must meet him at Huranui’s Rest Inn to begin the quest.

After acquiring the quest, head to Huranui’s Rest Inn and talk to Daijiro outside. He will try to backtrack on his promise, instead challenging you to a gambling game. Head inside the inn and take the ladder to the upper floor. Play the gambling game against him and win, all while conversing with him about the history of Lord Furuya.

Once you defeat Daijiro, he will try to run away, only to run into a group of bounty hunters. The gambler will once again ask you to help him out, promising the armor in return. Fight off the bounty hunters, and you will learn that they captured him while you were busy fighting.

Follow Daijiro’s trail to the Nupur River Campsite and kill all the enemies inside the camp. Free Daijiro from his shackles, and he will inform you that more of Tatsu’s men are on their way. You will then set a trap for the men, using Daijiro as bait and starting a fire.

Once the fire is set, hide and wait in the bushes, and let Daijiro do his part. As soon as he utters the word “maple tree,” rain arrows down on the soldiers and begin your ambush. Once you have killed them all, meet Daijiro at Huranui’s Rest Inn, where he will reveal that he is Lord Furuya and will grant you the Dragonfly Armor as your reward.
