Quest stages of Three Actions, Three Illusions
1. Meet Norio in Akashima Village
Go back to the Akashima Village and talk to Norio. You will find him meditating in the middle of the village. He'll tell you that he's managed to find out where the Mongols are holding Hochi.
Norio learned where the Mongols took the senior healer from his temple. He needs to continue training healers in Akashima Village. Norio and I will rescue him.
2. Travel to the Mongol camp with Norio / Reach the encounter area / Defeat the Mongol
Go after Norio. After a while, you'll mount your horses and ride to the camp on the coast where Hochi should be. When you get there, you will encounter a single Mongol guarding one of the huts. Get rid of him.
3. Go to the granary balcony / Look for Hochi / Speak with Norio
Climb the ladder to the hut next to which the Mongol stood and go to its balcony. You'll have a good view of the whole camp from the balcony. Survey the camp for Hochi, the signal cannon and the house on the right. Then you'll set a plan of action. Your task will be to free Hochi, Norio will take care of the cannon and you'll meet at the house after you've completed your tasks.
4. Free Hochi
You must now get to Hochi and free him. Of course you can't let the Mongols kill him. You don't have to, but you should get rid of all the Mongols in the camp now. If you leave some alive, they'll attack you when the patrol comes.
Note: Maybe it's a bug (working in 1.06), but when I stayed on the balcony and started shooting at them from a bow and throwing bombs, none of them even thought about killing Hochi, they just tried to locate me in the grass below the balcony. That way I was able to kill most of them. Those who finally found me and came to the hut, I killed with a sword.
When it's safe, approach Hochi and talk to him. The monk will tell you that the Mongols wanted to take him to the Cedar temple to treat someone there. After a while, Norio will join you.
5. Protect Hochi from the Mongols / Speak with Hochi
After a while, your conversation will be interrupted by the arrival of small patrol that was passing by and heard the alarm. You have to kill them all and not let them get to Hochi.
When you get rid of them, both monks will return to the village to take refuge there and this tale will end.
After completing Three Actions, Three Illusions you will get or will be able to get Ghosts in the Fog.
