During a snowstorm, you must navigate by following lit fires. Halfway through, you will meet a traveler who has given up, and the fires become harder to find. If you take too long, Jin will freeze to death. This section also details how to earn an achievement after completing "A Reckoning in Blood" in Act 2 and obtaining the song "Lament of the Storm" by finding 5 singing crickets in cemeteries. Use the traveler's attire to locate the crickets. Play the song at Taka's grave, located east of Yarikawa, after completing the quest.
