Sparring with Kiku

Once in the Weeping Sakura Graveyard in Orito Forest, a short sparring session takes place before ascending the mountain. Jubei suggests this duel to teach Kiku some basics. You’ll use a wooden dummy Katana, and her attacks are straightforward.

The safest approach is to focus on defense and counterattacks as the predictable patterns make this more of a teaching moment than a real challenge.
Survey and map the area
Next, travel with Jubei and Kiku to an overlook near Seianji Temple, where Oyuki waits. From this vantage point, you can survey key landmarks: Matsumae Castle, the lighthouse liberated from the Dragon, and Oiso Fishing Village.

Oyuki instructs you to draw a map using these landmarks. Using the touchpad, trace the map as directed to fulfill this objective, which helps set the stage for strategic planning in future encounters.
Spend time foraging with Kiku
With the sun setting, you’ll want to spend the moment with Kiku and assist her with foraging some mushrooms. Keep track of your progress on the meter at the top of the screen. In this sequence, you will see the wolf that has been following Atsu throughout the journey.
Follow the wolf with Kiku into a hidden barricaded clearing, which activates a cutscene that shows Kiku getting guided back to Oyuki and Jubei at Seianji Temple. This scene is focused on quiet exploration and creates tension in the story but is not combat focused.
Family time at Seianji temple
The A Wolf's Pack quest concludes with a rare peaceful moment around a campfire. Here, you even write a song with your family. Jubei reminisces about their mother playing the Shamisen after meals, prompting you to select dialogue options that contribute to the bonding experience.

This calm interlude wraps up the A Wolf's Pack quest and sets the stage for the next mission in the Saito Brothers arc: The Reckoning.
