There are a large number of side quests in Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, some of which require you to complete, or start, other side quests first. In the Kii region of the map, in the town of Gobo, you will find a quest called The Winter Raiders. A woman in town asks you to help them kill some raiders that are causing havoc across the region. This woman, named Rin, will ask Yasuke to help her with some training after the conversation during the quest above, starting the Arrow Strike mission. This page will detail where to find Rin, as well as the best answer to flirt with her.

Arrow Strike - Rin’s Location¶
The toughest part about this quest is finding Rin, as she lives in a secluded hut in the Kumano Sanzan sub-region. This is towards the eastern side of Kii, so if you haven’t been exploring much, you’ll have a lengthy trip from Gobo. The best thing to do is to simply follow the southern coastline of Kii, since there is a good landmark near Rin’s location. Eventually, you should see a strip of land sticking out from the southern coast.
There is a Viewpoint on the small island just off this strip of land, as well as a Horse Archery activity for Yasuke. If you head north of that, follow the road there on the eastern side and continue straight north past the fork. This road should lead you to a location called Mount Omori Hut. That is the secluded hut that Rin uses, and she will be there. Speak to her to get things started, with a dialog choice occurring in that dialog. If you wish to romance Rin, then respond with Let me help you clean.
(1 of 3) You have to hit a total of five targets with your bow.
While Rin won’t be a part of the League (an ally), she is still a character that Yasuke can romance. At this point, make sure a bow is equipped and get ready to start her training. She put up five targets for you to shoot in the area, all of which are marked and pretty easy to spot. You simply need to shoot all five of them, so once you’re done with that, speak with Rin again to get another flirting moment. If you wish to continue the flirting with her, then respond with It wasn’t my archery you were testing.
After a little bit more conversation, you will be finished with this quest. One of the rewards you will receive is the Discipline’s Reward legendary amulet for Yasuke, which has the Arrow Nock Speed for Bow Mastery engraving on it. In order to get the next quest for Rin, you will have to wait until you change seasons.
