Twisted Destiny Clue Deduction
Now, you’ll need to tie the clues together to deduce the true culprit behind the General’s murder. Link the clues in the following order:
-
What ties do these statues have to Wang Qing?
- Statue’s Face + Confession Letter
-
How does the killer in the General’s Shrine view Wang Qing?
- Remember the General’s Teachings + A General’s Death Repaid with Heads
-
What brought the killer to the General’s Shrine?
- One Who Wronged the General + From Respect to Blind Devotion
-
Where could this person go next? What for?
- Avenge General Wang Qing + A Resident of Harvestfall Village
Harvestfall Village
Follow the quest marker to head to Harvestfall Village. Here, you’ll need to fight the Headsman again after a bit of dialogue. The fight will stop mid-way through, and you’ll discover that Liu Musan (the villager) isn’t right in the head. Talk to the Headsman and he’ll ask for wine.
Follow the quest marker to obtain a Wine Jar and bring it back to him. He’ll reveal some of Uncle Jiang’s past and how he was taken under the General’s wing when he was young. Exhaust all dialogue, and the main character will put on Jiang’s clothes again.
Return to Harvestfall Village and place the Wine Jar on the bench. After a lengthy cutscene, you’ll need to follow the footprints and find the veteran (Liu Musan). Look for the footprints in the dirt path right next to He Ran (Headsman) and follow them to find Liu Musan again. A final cutscene will play out to reveal what really happened to the General and Jiang in the past, and the quest will be marked complete.
