Throughout Ghost of Yotei’s story, the Matsumae clan faces relentless harassment from Oni Raiders. The Shelter from the Storm mission thrusts you into this feud by tasking you with rescuing a vanished scout pursued by these aggressors. What appears straightforward becomes challenging due to scarce intel and numerous hostile forces. This walkthrough provides essential steps to navigate the quest successfully.

Completing Shelter from the Storm: Key Steps

After discovering Ikeda wounded in the farm shed, hostile forces arrive with audible alerts. Players can confront them directly or utilize stealth attacks in surrounding vegetation. Neutralizing all threats allows Ikeda to emerge with the farmer’s daughter, requiring safe passage back to the Matsumae base while repelling ambushes.

Initiating Shelter from the Storm

The quest activates through dialogue with a stationed soldier at Ishikari Plain’s Matsumae Outpost. After accepting the search task, proceed northward to Ishikari Farm. There, a distressed mother reveals her daughter harbors the injured scout Ikeda. Following her to the hiding spot triggers escort responsibilities once you agree to assist.
