Choosing a Skill

In this wildlife area, you have to make a choice. You can pick either a Ninja or a Samurai skill point. Each one changes how you fight. If you like quick moves, the Ninja Point is a good pick. Selecting it will trigger a change in how you look in Nioh 3.

Connecting with Spirits

This change happens because you are using the power of Kusanagi. It turns out you are good at connecting with Guardian Spirits.

You just need to stay still and listen until the talking finishes. Once the dialogue is over, you can head out of the forest and keep going with your journey in Nioh 3.
