Amita sends you to help an old woman named Kanan with a wolf problem. But guns are out. Instead, you get a bow and arrow. Right on.
Walk northeast down the path, to the ATV, and point it toward the yellow diamond on your map.
At the farm, you’ll find Kanan drunk, uncommunicative, and surrounded by animal carcasses. Must have been some party.
Bash open the board-covered hidey hole over Kanan’s shoulder for a couple health packs and bundles of extra arrows.
You’ll find the wolves’ den on the shore of a lake, guarded by two wolves surrounded by human carcasses. Kind of the opposite of the farm, actually.You could just fire a couple shots into the explosive barrel conveniently resting against the cave’s support pillar, except there’s a lootable body inside and you need the wolf pelts intact, not blown up and on fire. Try to take the wolves one at a time, luring each one closer with bait. (Oddly enough, thrown rocks work too.) Unless you hit them in the head or neck, it should take two arrows to kill each wolf, so try to stick at least one in before the beast closes in on you. And remember to heal. Healing is always good.
This right here? This is what you do NOT want to see.
Once you’ve killed and skinned all the wolves, head inside the cave to pincushion a third wolf and grab a fire arrow. Nice. Now head out and, from beside the ivy-covered chest left of the cave mouth, put an arrow in the explosive barrel. Bye, bye, wolf den.
Outside, more wolves may have arrived. But there’s also an ATV here, so if you don’t want the pelts, you can just ride off. You can also light a fire using a Molotov or fire arrow. Wolves, like most animals, will run from fire.
If you explore the lakeshore, you’ll also find your first mani wheel (see Collectibles for more information).
Head back to the farm, where Bhadra is caring for Kaman and Amita will give you a sort-of compliment and explain thangka paintings to you.
Upgrade Time!
If you haven’t already upgraded your gear and skills, do so now. Crafting an improved weapon holster is your first priority, followed by your wallet and (if you have the pelts) loot bag. As for skills, as awesome as elephant riding is, there aren’t many elephants just yet, so you might consider something with a more immediate benefit, like Capable Strength for extra health or Running Reload, because you never need to reload as you run until you really need to reload as you run.
Before leaving the farm, kick your way back into the basement stash and grab any ammo or health you didn’t pilfer before. Back in Banapur, head through the indicated door to get an assignment from Sabal. You’re not afraid of heights, right?
You can fire your handgun while riding a zipline, but aiming at 40 mph takes some practice.
