Unraveling the mysteries within *Assassin's Creed Shadows* offers countless thrilling plots. But beyond the overarching conflict, there's a compelling side quest waiting: tracking down the elusive Butterfly Collector and their associates. This guide will help you locate this dangerous group.
This quest begins in Osaka, Izumi Settsu. You'll encounter a woman discussing a game involving origami butterflies. These large paper butterflies, pinned to trees with real butterflies nearby, are scattered throughout the city. Collecting them reveals a sinister truth: the Butterfly Collector is a group of women kidnapping children from wealthy families.
Your mission: bring these criminals to justice. Five members comprise this faction.
Locating the Butterfly Collector Members in Assassin's Creed Shadows
Like other *Assassin's Creed Shadows* objectives, finding these targets requires using geographical clues. This guide provides their precise locations.
Shucho
Shucho's carelessness leads you to her. She's lost a kidnapped child in Osaka's Fishermen's District. Find her in the intersection; she's dressed in green. After subduing her, rescue the child hiding behind nearby horses.
Mucho
Travel northwest across the bridge from Shucho's location, towards the Kojo ruins. Mucho, posing as a family servant, is struggling with her victim south of the ruins. The child's resistance will give you an opportunity to intervene.
Richo
Rumors of a suspicious woman near a bamboo grove in Noda Village (north Osaka) will lead you to Richo. She's dressed in pink and is checking on a ransom payment. Neutralize her and save the child.
Kacho
Defeating the previous three members reveals Kacho, the leader. Find her north of Nishinomaru Garden, west of Osaka Castle. Many butterflies indicate her location. Prepare for a challenging confrontation.
Gamemaker
Return to the Gamemaker's initial location. As a former victim, she created the butterfly game hoping someone would uncover the truth. Decide her fate: punishment or a new beginning. Your choice concludes the Butterfly Collector questline, rewarding you with 5,500 XP.
