Overview
Kin Sanctuary is a ruined settlement in the Kin area of Kamiagata, the northern region of Tsushima. It is not a functioning sanctuary in the ordinary gameplay sense. By the time Jin reaches it, the settlement has been burned and its people have been killed or driven away as part of Khotun Khan’s retaliation against the Ghost. The location is therefore best understood as a story-marked village ruin and exploration area, rather than as a town with active residents, shops or a conventional liberation objective.
Despite its devastated appearance, Kin Sanctuary is unusually important for collectors. The wider area contains a Bamboo Strike, two Records, a Haiku location, a nearby Inari Shrine, the Midnight Hanabi Pillar of Honour, a horse grave and a hidden-alter location. Some of these lie just outside the settlement’s visible ruins, so treating “Kin Sanctuary” as only the burning buildings leads to an incomplete route.
