Divine Child of Rejuvenation

## Description

The **Divine Child of Rejuvenation** (変若の御子, Divine Heir of Rejuvenation) is the last living bearer of the false Dragon's Heritage, created by Senpou Monks who abandoned their faith in pursuit of immortality.

She holds the Mortal Blade and is willing to give it to anyone who could survive its deadly crimson steel.

Realizing Wolf's mission is to sever the ties of immortality of his young lord, she decides to help him in his quest by gifting him precious Rice.

Sympathetic to the numerous tragedies that struck Kuro because of his Dragon's Blood, she'll ask Sekiro to help her bringing back this power to the West, by retrieving two Serpent Persimmons that she plans to eat to become the craddle for the Divine Heir.

Before questioning Isshin about the Mortal Blade and its location, speak with the Green Robed Infested right past the Sculptor's Idol and "**Ask of the special holy person**" to receive Holy Chapter: Infested.

* If not obtained in time, it'll be found at the bottom of the pond with two Carps after the Temple Grounds, requiring the Mibu Breathing Technique from the Corrupted Monk to be reached.

### Ashina Castle (Upper Tower - Kuro's Room)

Exhaust Kuro's dialogue, until he reveals Isshin's whereabouts. Traverse the rooftops following the trail of pink smoke signals to reach his room. Question him about the Mortal Blade and its location, then return to Kuro's room to retrieve the Gun Fort Shrine Key from the library where the Divine Heir is now found.

### Senpou Temple (Senpou Temple, Mt. Kongo)

### Senpou Temple (Inner Sanctum)

Request more Rice from the Divine Child and reload the area to have her ask Wolf for a Persimmon to cure her wheezing: after giving her what she asked for, she'll give Rice and Rice for Kuro to Sekiro.

* A Taro Persimmon will also progress her questline, but it isn't specifically needed.

Give the Rice for Kuro to the Divine Heir and reload the area to have him gift Wolf a couple of Sweet Rice Balls.

### Senpou Temple (Senpou Temple, Mt. Kongo)

Exit the building with the first Sculptor's Idol, take the right and drop down to a cliff with a Rat guarding a kite: equip the Puppeteer Ninjutsu awarded after defeating the Folding Screen Monkeys and perform a Backstab Deathblow on him, following it with another attack to take control of him. The Rat will now head for the machinery to fly the kite higher.

Head back to the Faithful One, grapple onto the branch to her left and then to the branch of the large tree on the right. Walk toward the kite and grapple onto it to land on a cliff. Now jump onto the other cliffs ahead by grappling onto the nearby branches to reach the Sunken Valley Cavern Sculptor's Idol.

### Senpou Temple (Sunken Valley Cavern)

Walk past the Sculptor's Idol and on the broken plank to perform a Plunging Deathblow on the Great Serpent to obtain the Fresh Serpent Viscera.

* It doesn't matter which of the Serpent Viscera is retrieved first.
* Not taking the Finisher Deathblow will result in getting shallowed alive by the beast, that will then bring Wolf to the entrance of the cave with the Dried Serpent Viscera.

### Sunken Valley (Bodhisattva Valley)

Reach the bottom of the valley and enter the cave past the Toxic Memorial Mob: at the end, another Great Serpent will attack Sekiro if he tries to reach the shrine from the bridge, so take the left, drop down and climb the wall ahead to reach a cliff with a scared Monkey and five Spirit Emblems: equip the Puppeteer Ninjutsu and take control of it. As it screams to bait the creature away from the bridge, prepare to grapple onto it after the Serpent is done attacking the beast. The Dried Serpent Viscera is found on the Buddha statue inside the shrine.

* It doesn't matter which of the Serpent Viscera is retrieved first.
* Even if the Great Serpent of the Sunken Valley has been killed, this Great Serpent will still be found in the cave.
