Are you ready to dive into the captivating world of Cultivating the Cure in Rise of the Ronin? This Bond Mission, set against the rich backdrop of Edo, tasks you with aiding Ine to find materials crucial for treating cholera patients. Join us as we walk you through this essential quest and ensure you maximize your experience!

📍 Mission Overview

Location: Kanda Medical School in Northeastern Kanda, Edo

Level: 26

Prerequisites: Complete the "Ine's Worries" Bond Mission and achieve Bond Level 3 with Ine.

In this mission, your journey begins at the Kanda Medical School where Ine is eager to seek your help. 🤝 Let’s explore the steps to successfully complete Cultivating the Cure.

📝 Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Engage with Ine

   - Head to the Kanda Medical School. When you arrive, speak to Ine. She’s in desperate need of quinine for her patients but is struggling to procure it.

2. Choose Your Response

   - You can select any response you prefer initially. Ine has heard rumors about a merchant selling the bark, which is vital for creating quinine. Agree to help by selecting "Of course. I'll come back when I'm done."

3. Locate the Merchant

   - Venture to the northeastern part of Kanda. While searching, you'll encounter Yukichi Fukuzawa, who’s on a similar quest to find a dubious apothecary. Opting to team up with him deepens your bond, so select "Let's get going" to proceed together.

4. Stealthy Navigation

   - On a rooftop, Fukuzawa suggests a stealthy approach. Glide down to a small boat near a lit brazier and follow the path. Be vigilant of patrolling enemies and eliminate them without attracting further attention.

5. Explore the Hidden Dock

   - When the path forks, handle the patrol, then navigate towards a walled-off dock area. You will find a grapple point allowing entrance to the hidden territory. 🎮

6. Facing the Merchant

   - Upon reaching the merchant, you’ll quickly realize he’s trying to pull a scam. Choosing the right dialogue option can deepen your Bond, especially if you have the Speechcraft: Liar skill.

7. Combat Encounter

   - After confronting the merchant, he and his cohorts will attack. Utilize your combat skills to defeat them—these enemies shouldn’t pose a significant challenge.

8. Return to Ine

   - After the conflict, return to Ine empty-handed. Choose “Don't let it get you down” to lift her spirits and deepen your bond. Fukuzawa will suggest cleanliness to help prevent the spread of cholera.

9. Conclude the Mission

   - As the mission concludes, let Ine know, “Let me know if you ever need me again.” This final selection will deepen your Bond with her once more, marking the successful completion of all of Ine’s Bond Missions! 🎉

🌟 Conclusion

Completing Cultivating the Cure is not just about navigating quests; it’s also about forming strong connections and making impactful decisions. Dive into this immersive experience in Rise of the Ronin, strengthen your bonds, and aid those in need.
