Unwavering Hope Quest Objectives
Investigate the Houses West of Camp

Go toward the two houses going southwest from the camp Sagano. Make sure that you kill all the wolves and minor yokai in this area before attempting to pick anything up or interact with anything.
You will find a corpse near the house. Examine the corpse. This will activate the next phase of the quest and provide new directions from the ghost.
Search the Frozen Village

Head northeast, and there you will find a village that is partially frozen; you will see many buildings damaged by ice, and also see a pack of wolves moving around in this area.
Head to the village’s central well and check out two corpses. After you examine the bodies, the ghost will point to the direction of a nearby temple.
Tsurara-onna Boss Fight

Travel north toward the temple on the east side of the bridge, where you will find Tsurara-onna, the ice-based yokai responsible for the tragedy. This will lead to a boss fight with her.
After defeating Tsurara-onna, the ghost will ask you to let her go. The yokai will run away, and the mission will be completed.
Unwavering Hope Rewards

The reward for completing this Quest is: Ninja’s Locks Sasayuki.
With Tsurara-onna defeated and the ghost’s request fulfilled, Unwavering Hope comes to its end. This quest offers combat experience along with Ninja’s Locks Sasayuki. If you’re clearing Sagano, this Unwavering Hope is well worth completing.
