This fight is even more difficult than the first one, so be ready for it. Head back in there, fight through two extra minibosses and you’ll face the Great Shinobi Owl once more where you fought Lady Butterfly. Talk to Emma about it and you will get a new bell that will alter the memory of Hirata Estate. Go behind the sculptor’s abode and peek through the window to eavesdrop on their conversation. Talk to Emma there, then warp to Dilapidated Temple. Rest and talk to her again, then warp to the Old Grave idol and run through the arch to your left where the two graves are. She’ll tell you she’s found a way to ensure that Kuro doesn’t die during the Immortal Severance process. Then, rest and talk to Emma at the top of the stairs from Kuro’s room. Once this is done, head back to Kuro’s Room and eavesdrop him (hug the screen doors near to him) to hear him say something quite unsavoury. Once this is done, head to Isshin’s dojo across the rooftops of Ashina Castle and eavesdrop on his and Emma’s conversation. First, beat the Great Shinobi Owl like you’re heading for the Immortal Severance ending. To get the purification ending, you have to eavesdrop on a lot of NPC’s.
