How to Recruit the Ashen Wolves in the Main Game
The Ashen Wolves Are Only Recruitable in Part 1 of the Story
Once finishing the necessary Cindered Shadows chapters, you can now unlock the Ashen Wolves characters in the main game, regardless of your progress. However, you can only recruit them in Part 1. Once you have reached Part 2 or post-time skip of the story, you will not be able to recruit them anymore.
Part 1: White Clouds Walkthrough
Talk to the Shifty Merchant to Go to the Abyss
Once you finish Chapter 1 of Cindered Shadows, the Abyss is now accessible in the main game.
Simply talk to the Shifty Merchant found outside, just beside your Personal Quarters to get to Abyss.
Talk to the House Members and Recruit Them
To recruit them, simply talk to them like you would when you recruit other House members to your party.
Once you recruit them, they will be able to join you in Monastery activities like any Garegg Mach students.
No requirements needed
Unlike the usual recruitment process, there are no skill or support requirement needed to unlock them.
