In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the Tea Ceremony quest is an engaging early mission that involves intricate interactions and dialogue choices. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to navigate through the Tea Ceremony and the correct answers to select for a smooth progression.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows Tea Ceremony Answers
During the Tea Ceremony quest, you will engage in conversations with various NPCs, starting with Imai Sokyu. When speaking to him, you'll have two options: “The tea ceremony is a spiritual experience” or “It’s a place to make contacts.” Both responses are acceptable, so choose the one that aligns with your character’s perspective.
Next, you'll interact with three guests at the ceremony. Below are the correct responses for each:
Guest/Prompt | Response |
---|---|
Otama | “I had a good teacher” or “I know the son well” |
Wakasa | “I’m new to Sakai” “I didn’t say where I was from” |
Satoko | N/A |
Completing the ceremony | “Turn bowl right twice” |
Confront Otama or Wakasa | Wakasa |
What Happens If You Pick the Wrong Answers?
Most dialogue choices in the Tea Ceremony don't affect the quest's outcome significantly. You might receive disapproving looks from the guests or Sokyu if you mishandle the ceremony, but these have no lasting impact.
However, the choice of whom to confront—Otama or Wakasa—does have consequences. Choosing Otama leads you to hunt her down, only to discover she's not the Golden Teppo you're after. This triggers the quest "Defensive Position," where Naoe continues the search for Wakasa.
On the other hand, choosing to confront Wakasa results in her inviting Naoe to her home, initiating the quest "Drive the Point Home." The story then proceeds as intended.
