In the following guide, we’ll explore how you can start and complete Spirits of Teshio Ridge in Ghost of Yotei.
The Spirits of Teshio Ridge in Ghost of Yotei is the first part of the Kitsune questline. This quest will take you through new areas in the game, and have you escort a bunch of merchants. However, as always, don’t expect things to go smoothly. In the following guide, we’ve broken down how you can start this quest and how you can complete it.
How To Begin Spirits of Teshio Ridge in Ghost of Yotei
To start off the quest, head northeast from the Yotei Grasslands, and follow the Nupur River, keeping it to your left. Once you’re at the northernmost edge of the Tokachi Range, you’ll come across a small campfire and a ferry nearby. Speak to the woman at the campfire, named Huci.
After a brief conversation, she’ll offer you a ride to the Nayoro Wilds, where you’ll need to go to begin the hunt for the Kitsune. You will get the following dialogue choices when speaking with Huci.
- Maybe later.
- (Travel North to the Nayoro Wilds)
If you’re ready to depart, pick the latter option. After a small cutscene, you’ll disembark at the North Ferry. Open up your map, and you should see that the Kitsune quest marker is further to the north of your position. You can simply ride your horse to this area. When you get close, you’ll meet a few merchants. Speak with them, and one of them will ask Atsu to escort them safely to their destination. Here, you’ll also get a dialogue choice.
- Select “Rudeness costs extra” to get paid after the quest ends.
- Selecting “No thanks” will delay your payment, but the quest will proceed as normal.
As soon as the conversation ends, the Spirits of Teshio Ridge quest will begin.
How To Complete the Spirits of Teshio Ridge in Ghost of Yotei
Here’s a look at every phase of the quest.
Riding Toward Red Crane Inn
Soon, you will start riding with the merchants. However, you won’t make it very far when a storm rolls in. At the same time, Nine Tails raiders will ambush your party. Make quick work of all the enemies to continue with the quest. The dual katana is highly effective here, and it can help end the battle quicker.
However, after all the enemies are down, a cutscene plays that shows the Kitsune attacking Atsu. She’s left wounded and unconscious. When Atsu wakes up, she finds that the merchants all lie dead around her. She is now the sole survivor.
Seek Shelter From the Storm
Atsu will need to seek shelter in a nearby cave until the storm passes. Simply follow your horse to reach the cave. Inside, you will have to build a fire. Here’s how you can do that:
- Step 1: Use the left stick to aim the stones.
- Step 2: Swipe up on the touchpad to emit sparks by rubbing the stones together.
- Step 3: Hold R2 to increase the intensity of the flames.
After lighting the fire, a cutscene plays out, moving the questline forward.
Reaching Red Crane Inn
With the merchants all dead and the storm over, you’ll next have to continue your way toward Red Crane Inn. Once there, head inside. The place is brimming with Samurai, and you’ll need to sit nearby and eavesdrop on their conversations. Eventually, you’ll be asked to play a round of Zeni hajiki with the Samurai. Proceed to do so, only to gain their trust and learn more about Kitsune. Finally, they’ll ask you to go upstairs and meet their commander. However, even that doesn’t reveal anything interesting.
Fighting the Samurai
Once you come back downstairs after meeting the commander, you’ll meet Otsuki, a songstress at the inn. During the cutscene, the Samurai downstairs will start causing trouble, leading to Atsu proposing a fistfight to settle things. After the cutscene ends, you’ll have to take down all of the fighting Samurai with your fists. Once all of them are dealt with, Otsuki will ask you to meet her outside. This also concludes Spirits Of Teshio Ridge in Ghost of Yotei.
