Quest stages of The Fool

1. Travel to Umugi Cove / Travel to entrance of Umugi Cove

Once you have visited Umugi Cove, you can find Lady Masako near the bridge and the beginning of the path that leads to the town from the east side. Talk to her and you'll learn that she managed to track down the person who supplied the weapon used in the massacre of her family.

Travel to Umugi Cove / Travel to entrance  of Umugi Cove

Masako has tracked a conspirator to Umugi - a man by the name of Omura. When he's found, she'll have her revenge, but the hunt is starting to wear her down. I don't know what will become of her if she continues to push herself this hard.

2. Follow Masako

Follow Masako to the nearby hill where you will wait until dusk. Then two men will appear, probably sons of Omura. After a short talk, they'll split up and you'll have to follow one of them.
