Follow the Soldier's Shadow Walkthrough
| # | Walkthrough |
|---|---|
| 1 |  From the Funaokayama shrine just north of Funaokayama, go down the road and take the right turn through a path surrounded by wooden fences. |
| 2 |  At the end of the road is Minamoto no Yoshitsune, whom you will need to talk to. He will join you while doing this mission. |
| 3 |  Head north, down the ledge where Minamoto no Yoshitsune was standing. Be careful of the yokai along the way. Keep going west until you come to two sets of stairs, one to the left going down, and one to the right going up. |
| 4 |  If you turn left, you'll eventually come across closed gates which you can open for a future shortcut. If you turn right, you'll enter an Enemy Base. |
| 5 |  Defeat all six yokai within the base. Three will be right in the front courtyard, with two more on the roof. The sixth one is at the back of the house, where there will be wooden platforms to help you get on the roof. |
| 6 |  Defeating all of the enemies will give you a Grubby Iron Key which you can use to open the house itself. Inside is the yokai Yasha whom you have to defeat. |
| 7 | After defeating Yasha, speak with Tomoe Gozen, who will appear in its place. This will complete the mission and unlock the Master Tomoe Gozen. |
