After finding themselves on the run without their mother and Luka, Amicia and Hugo must decide their next move. Head down the path into a vibrant valley where you can discover a jay feather. Amicia will suggest that Hugo run through the flower field. You’ll eventually reach a large tree at the center—this happens automatically as part of the story. Hugo will find a feather beneath this tree.

Continue downstream along the river until you come across a religious camp. The inhabitants won’t mind your presence here. When you reach the first area with tables arranged around a massive tree, you can locate a memory collectible. Walk around the left side of the tables to find someone wearing a white jumpsuit leaning against the tree. Behind the tents, there’s a path leading to a swing set. Interact with it to unlock the memory.

Escaping the Camp

Return to the main square and follow the primary path until you encounter people praying inside a church. After a short while, enemies will arrive, and the religious cult’s leader will assist you in escaping from the camp. Follow his instructions carefully:

  • Hide under the cart when he tells you to
  • During your escape, you’ll be spotted
  • Amicia will fall into a cave

The Cave System

Enter the caves and look for supplies on the right side. Your path leads to the left. Hugo will gain a new ability that allows him to see enemy outlines—an incredibly useful skill for stealth gameplay. You’ll know exactly where enemies are positioned and where they’re heading.

Use this skill to navigate through the nearby area. Head toward the door at the end to repeat the same tactics with different opponents. The soldier guarding the door won’t move from his position, so approach from the right side to get behind him. Sneak through the hatch.

The Open Valley

Once you descend into the large open valley, you’ll face new challenges. Enemies are searching for you, so move cautiously and think through your actions carefully. Only eliminate someone if you’re certain no one will witness it. Remember to use the tall grass for cover.

This is a spacious location, so if you’re spotted, you can run away and hide from enemies.

Your main objective is reaching the church in the far section and opening the metal door. An alternative to stealth is sprinting to the door, hoping you’ll have enough time to close it before the guard catches Amicia. Regardless of your approach, don’t forget to open the secret chest once you reach the church.

Finding the Secret Chest

After passing through the quarry and entering the church, you’ll close the door behind you and find yourself in a new area. Upon entering the room, search the shelves in the far right corner. There’s a crawlspace here. Crawl through it to discover the secret chest.

Return to the entrance and head in the opposite direction. You’ll find a room with a rat-related puzzle.

Hugo’s New Power

First, Hugo will gain access to another ability—he can control the rat horde and direct the rodents to kill enemies. Eliminate the three opponents who appear at the end of the corridor. Repeat this process with the next two enemies.

Move to another section of the room:

  1. Light the first brazier
  2. Throw an Ignifer pot slightly below to advance further
  3. Light the brazier on the right
  4. Reach it by throwing more Ignifer pots
  5. Use the brazier to get to the ladder
  6. Move toward the back area where you’ll find a door

Memory Collectible in the Forge

Before leaving the building, make sure you collect another memory. When Hugo learns to control the rats and you enter the forge, look for a metal door and workbench. Before going through the door, climb the ladder and navigate through the hole in the wall to find a spot with cloth. Hugo will offer to change Amicia’s bandage, automatically unlocking the memory.

Crossing the Valley

Return to the forge and go through the other door. Ahead lies another open location filled with enemies. However, you can now control the rats to kill your foes. Use this power to reduce enemy numbers and make crossing the valley easier. At the top of the hill near the tower, you’ll find the door you need to pass through.

Boss Battle: The Beast

A boss fight will suddenly begin against the Beast, whose body is completely protected by armor. To weaken him:

  • Shoot one of the exploding barrels when the Beast stands near it
  • He’ll be stunned
  • Circle around behind him
  • Shoot the lock holding his armor together

After your victory and the cutscene, command the rats to kill the enemies. There will be many of them, so focus on preventing them from getting close to Amicia and Hugo. Following the confrontation, carry Hugo to safety using the ladder on the right side. This completes the chapter.
