Live A Live Muramasa Blade - Path Of Shuttered Lanterns Guide

gamespot.com:

The Twilight of Edo Japan chapter of Live A Live is the most open-ended one of the bunch. While some of them push you along in a fairly linear fashion, Twilight of Edo Japan drops you off at the front door of Ode Castle and leaves it to you to find your way and accomplish your objectives. It’s no surprise that there are a few secrets in this chapter, but one of the most obtuse tricks leads to the most prized piece of equipment… and the most vicious boss. Here's a guide to help you through the Twilight of Edo Japan chapter, including where to find the Muramasa blade and the Bloodthirsty Samurai.

Depending on which route you take to the castle, you might come across the Path of Shuttered Lanterns on your own. If you climb to the roof of the residential building, you’ll be able to run across the area’s outer fortifications. You’ll eventually come across a tree, which you can climb down. Once back on the ground, you’ll see a large lantern just south of you. Interact with it, and it will open the path.

You won’t find much on the Path of Shuttered Lanterns, but in the final stretch, you’ll hear a click as you walk. Continue south, and you’ll hear another. It may seem like nothing happened, but there’s a trick here. When entering from the north door, run across the first place the floor clicks and stop immediately when you hear the second. Run back up across the first one and go through the door you entered from. You’ll find yourself in a completely new room.
