Speak with the Sick Man

  • This quest can be obtained through exploration and is available after completing the main quest "Honor and Ash".
  • The location of the sick man can be found near the Fox Den on the south side of Jogaku Temple Lake and in between Ice Forest Crossroads and the High Point Guard Post.
  • You'll also be able to find a Golden Bird that will guide you to the location of the sick man's camp. When you arrive, you'll find him throwing up, speak to him to start the quest. You'll learn that his family has been poisoned and that you can find the cabin up the cliffs.
  • The location of the man's home is automatically marked on the map - use Guiding Wind.

Reach the Poisoned Family

  • Mount your horse and head towards the poisoned family. Approach the barricaded door and interact with it to speak to the man's wife.
  • After speaking to them, head towards the nearby Mongol camp to search for supplies. You'll need to collect x3 supplies. There's one in the round tent, one in the building, and the other inside an open tent next to a campfire.
  • Once you have collected all three, return to the cabin to give the supplies to the family.

Defeat the Mongols

  • When you arrive, you'll see that the Mongols have the area surrounded and that they've started to burn down the cabin.
  • Be ready to fight and to clear out all the Mongols surrounding the area. You'll encounter shieldmen and brute guards here, as well as archers.
  • If you have Ghost Stance available. USE IT! And try to take out the brute guard first. Remember to also switch to Water Stance which is effective against breaking the guard of the shieldmen.
  • Once you've killed all of the Mongols, approach the woman who's been shot and speak to her. You'll find her just outside of the cabin.
  • Jin learns that the rest of the family is dead and that it's too late to save her. This completes the side quest.
