Return to Kamiki Village
Go back to Kamiki Village. The entire Kamiki village gathers around Susano’s house to hold an intervention. He is holed up in his house because he drank the entirety of the “8 Purification Sake” meant for Orochi. Close up of Okami, you see her just grinding her teeth as she tries to decide which ring of Hell to send Susano. Like any alcoholic, Susan first denies saying “he couldn’t help himself, just wanted a sip.” Then quickly jumps to the first step of AA and admits he has a problem, “I’m to blame for all your misfortunes.” The second AA step which is “Come to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity” is easy because Okami is right there.
He then admits that it was he that released the demon from it’s prison because he could not take the expectations people had of him because he was a descendant of Nagi. He tried to flee from responsibility which is why we kept seeing him everywhere we went. He thinks he has to kill Orochi in order to make everyone happy again.
A big purple ball appears and then a flaming arrow come towards town. The arrow heads right for the boy but Hayabusa knocks him out of the way. The arrow hits Kushi’s (the sake lady) house. This means she must be a sacrifice to the evil Orochi. She doesn’t seem to be too upset, her face is expressionless – I guess it would help that she has no mouth in the first place.
To replace the “8 purification Sake” Kushi goes to get her “Thunder Brew”. Follow Kushi out of town and into Shinshu Field. Kushi pulls ahead as this game’s “Character most likely be a Christ figure” when she decides to sacrifice herself and her sake because “there is too much suffering in the world.”
Okami picks her up and they ride off to fight Orochi. Run to the south east corner of Shinshu field to the Moon Cave. Mika the shrine watchman is there and it looks like he is trying some new form of Body Pump Aerobics. He doesn’t have much to say.
The Moon Cave looks like total hell. Waka is there at the cave entrance and presents the Serpent Crystal. He plays a song on his flute, and small purple snakes inch their way to the crystal (thus the Serpent of Serpent Crystal fame). The cave is open. Okami readies to strike at Waka, be sure to aim for the neck Okami, but a demon comes out to take the Sake lady. The cave door is locked again. Waka tells you the next prophesy “Look, the moon! The moon! The moon came out!” Great man, the moon rises every night. Too bad Okami is locked out, oh wait we are locked in. But Susano is stuck outside.
