Talk to a man and he'll tell you about the ghosts haunting the nearby forest, which makes even the Mongols unwilling to come to it. To find out about it yourself, you will have to wait with him until dusk.
A man told me the spirits of vengeful samurai haunt the nearby forest in Kashine. He said no one who enters the forest ever returns. I'll sit with this man until nightfall. He could use some company, and I want to see if his stories are true.
After dark, you can go to the forest. Find the camp you will find between the rocks north of the hut that stands in the forest.
Examine the corpse lying next to the bonfire...
...and the footprints.
Follow the tracks by following the road leading north. A little further you will find bodies hanging on the trees.
Continue north and you'll come to the Bandit's Camp where you'll come across a few bandits.
Attack the bandits and kill them. The last one of them will surrender. You can either kill him or let him run away.
Go back to the traveller and give him a new story to share with others. This will end this tale.
