This collection includes every marker from the Unwritten Tales category of points of interest in Ghost of Tsushima, all placed on interactive maps created specifically for the game.
Unwritten Tales are secret, unmarked side quests found exclusively in the Iki Island expansion of Ghost of Tsushima. Unlike standard missions, these do not appear on your world map, are not tracked in your quest journal, and do not provide waypoints to follow. They are short narrative encounters that require you to pay close attention to the environment and NPCs to complete.
Completing all unwritten tales is necessary to unlock the "Common Courtesy" trophy.
The index below enables quick navigation to the desired marker / point of interest.

Completing this rewards you with the White Kitsune mask.
