Starting Location: The Spider Lily General
Enter the “Mysterious Gate” location in the south of Tokachi Range region. Then a cutscene plays and an NPC called Ugetsu talks to you. Afterward you can fully enter the gate and explore the area beyond it.
Explore the haunted plateau
Follow the linear path lit by lanterns until you reach a gate with four large locks.
You must then find the 4 keys around the Abandoned Tominaga Estate, the search area is marked yellow on the map.
Find the four keys for the locked gate
Key 1 (Pagoda):
From the locked gate turn right and you’ll see a large pagoda. The key is behind this pagoda in a wooden box. Optionally, there is also a hat at the top of the pagoda if you climb up.
Key 2 (Graveyard):
Keep following the path behind the pagoda. The graveyard is in the west edge of the area. Kill the enemies, then you find it at the very end of the graveyard section in front of a pile of dirt with a shovel sticking out of it.
Key 3 (Maze):
Go back to the locked gate. Take the path to the left of the locked gate and head to the north-east corner of the area. There you find a bamboo forest path leading into the maze. Head forward until you reach a bamboo strike collectible and multiple paths splitting up.
To solve this puzzle, follow the path that has the red spider lily flowers (it changes each time). Each time you follow the red flowers, you’ll arrive back at the Bamboo Strike and a new path will have the red flowers. Do this three times and then interact with the Bamboo Strike to get the key. Afterward you can walk or fast travel out of there.
Key 4 (Cave):
From the locked gate, take the path to the left. Find the cave entrance in the east edge of the area. Follow the linear path through the cave, at the very end in the final cave section you find some paintings on the walls. There you can collect the key in front of the cave paintings, just before sliding down outside the cave.
Open the locks at the gate
Go back to the locked gate. After collecting all 4 keys there will be an R2 button prompt to open it.
Explore the abandoned estate
Run straight ahead, go into the house and examine the bloody mat.
Then leave the way you came, turn left and go through another door to a training area. Examine the bloodstain in the dueling ring.
From there go forward until you reach a bamboo wall you can pull down with the grappling hook. Squeeze through the gap and a cutscene will play.
Defeat the Spider Lily General
Defeat the Spider Lily General in a duel.
Collect the Spider Lily General’s Armor
After the fight, walk forward up the hill and claim the armor to complete the quest. This unlocks the Spider Lily Armor.
This finishes The Spider Lily General in Ghost of Yotei.
