The mysterious butterflies found in the vibrant streets of Osaka are the key to unlocking The Butterfly Collector questline. One of these items will lead you to the All Will be Well mission, where you must locate and eliminate Richo. Here’s where to find her in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
AC: Shadows The Butterfly Collector Richo location
After you’ve collected the Secret Origami Letter from Richo Butterfly, you’ll unlock the All Will be Well sub-quest in Osaka. According to the clues, you must find a burnt well north of the Temple of Osaka. There are a lot of wells around this area, but the one you’re looking for will be above the Gear Vendor.
The burnt well will be surrounded by debris, and you must get closer to it to listen to gardeners nearby. Wait until their conversation ends, and you’ll receive a hint about a “bamboo grove.”
You’ll then trigger the Forest Fugitive sub-quest in the Butterfly Collector storyline. Travel to the northeast side of Noda Village, which will be above the Osaka Castle.
While exploring Noda Village, you’ll find a cabin deep inside the bamboo grove. Richo will be there, and you can sneak up behind her for a stealthy kill. Or, just run up to her for a full frontal assault. Although this battle isn’t too challenging, you should still watch out for her deadly attacks. These Butterfly Collector targets have a pretty mean kick, so do your best to dodge them.
After the elimination, check the small cabin near Richo’s body. One of the missing children is inside, and you can follow her to complete the Forest Fugitive quest in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
You’ll receive rewards such as Mon, weapons, and the Trinket of Childlike Bravery. You can also check off one of the targets in the Butterfly Collector quest. In total, this AC: Shadows mission requires you to eliminate five targets, giving you a 5,000 XP bonus and more.
