Rescued the Merchant.

Tracking the Mongols led me to an occupied camp where a missed aerial drop forced a quick recovery. After silently clearing several patrolling guards, a whistle intended to lure an enemy accidentally summoned my horse that alerted the remaining forces. I defeated them in open combat before rescuing the merchant to know he was betrayed.

After following the Mongol tracks for some time, I reached this place where I could see a big land was occupied by a group of Mongols, and I stopped there to look for a stealth opening.

I decided to try an aerial assassination on this Mongol, but unfortunately, I took a long fall there, and then I had to take him down real fast, quietly, before he could warn the others.

Then I took cover close to another Mongol, but I noticed a big one of them saw the body I left behind, so I went for him next and I assassinated him quietly.

After assassinating another Mongol who was kinda resting there, I took cover there by the big house when there was a Mongol walking toward my position.

I knew while he would relax, so I just also relaxed there for a moment before I went to assassinated him quietly, striking the final blow when he was just relaxing in peace.

Then I took down another one of them quietly before knowing it would be hard to assassinate the rest of them quietly as they were close by, watching the remaining guards converse near the a bonfire.

I went close to them and decided to lure them one by one toward my hiding position with whistle. But hearing my whistle, my horse came over running, that distracted all three of them at once and blew up my stealth plan.

The Mongols started checking around and found me, so I had to attack them, and took them all down brutally, deflecting their incoming sword strikes and executing swift parries to thin their ranks.

Knowing all the Mongols were taken care of, I went inside the house where I found the merchant with the iron mark whom I rescued. And he said he worked for them because they promised to protect his family. But it turned out they lied.

After telling the merchant, his brother was gone, and Jin knowing this merchant never had an iron mark, the mission came to an end. And I found the sun started rising, so I just went out of the house towards the sunrise in peace, to watch the golden light break across the valleys of Tsushima.
