Himiko, Queen of Nippon
Now that we are though with that little diversion, return to Sei-an City. Continue straight through due north until you reach the queens palace at the far end of the Aristocrat’s District. There are two guards who will not let you through. Use the mist technique to boggle them as you run past.
Enter the palace and head into the elevator to the queen’s throne room. You can tell that the queen is totally evil because she filled her private throne room with hot lava.
Conveniently, the quest just before this one gave you a holy artifact. Press start and select the “Equipment” option. Place the Fire Tablet as one of your Holy Artifacts. You are now impervious to hot lava. Swim straight through the curtains to the end (she added the curtains as a decorative touch to make sure each room felt distinct and not create an overall dominating hallway).
After the hot lava, run straight through the remaining doors. Don’t worry, there are no secret chests located to the left or right of each room – I checked. This next part actually feels like the door sequence to Mystery Science Theater 3000. MOVIE SIGN!
Himiko is praying but stops to talk and knows both Okami and Issun’s back stories. Notice how she does not call Issun a bug – a true sign she knows us. Issun complains about here negligence in office. From the back she actually looks like a blunt. Issun accuses her of feeding off the ill will of the people. She shows her face and it is a beautiful woman and Issun faints. Oh man Issun just got a boner for a girl, that means everyone has to take a shot.
She tells us that we can get to the monster on Oni Island. The island vanishes at sundown and travels so it is hard to find. Issun accuses her of negligence again because she just consults her advisers, I mean prays, rather than act. As a rejoinder she says that the crystal ball actually is helping her to locate the island. But that still does not explain why she did not dispatch some sort of counter attack on Oni Island. I would call for an investigation.
Talk to Himiko after the cinematic to learn how to get to Oni Island. She gives Okami the Border Key. Run back out of the palace, MST3K again.
