'''Red Walls''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Fujibayashi Naoe]] and [[Yasuke]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived through the [[Animus|Animus EGO]].<ref name="ACSH">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]''</ref>

==Description==
Naoe and Yasuke travels to [[Wakasa]] to join Lord [[Niwa Nagahide]] in the hunt for a [[Shinbakufu]] member.

==Dialogue==
Naoe and Yasuke arrived in [[Obama]], where Niwa Nagahide lives in. Near the [[Trading Port]], they heard a voice calling out to them.
*'''Shinobi:''' ''If you can see me, then I am here. Come closer, I have information about the ones you seek.''
The two tracked the voice to a woman under the bridge and talked to her.
*'''Shinobi:''' ''It's Lord Niwa Nagahide. He's in trouble.''
<tabber>
|-|Naoe=
*'''Naoe:''' ''Niwa Nagahide. One of [[Oda Nobunaga]]'s bloodthirsty generals.''
*'''Shinobi:''' ''There has been suspicious activity at his Obama [[Nagahide Estate|estate]]. And now, violence has broken out.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Then I had better talk to him while I can.''

|-|Yasuke=

</tabber>
Naoe and Yasuke traveled to Nagahide's estate in the north of the city and found a small crowd outside.
<tabber>
|-|Naoe=
*'''Naoe:''' ''The estate. Already a crowd.''

*'''Woman:''' ''I heard a scream. I hope nothing has happened to the {{Wiki|Niwa clan|Niwa family}}!''
*'''Man:''' ''(laughs) Would that be such a bad thing?''
At a small camp outside the residence, Naoe and Yasuke overheard a pair of guards talking about their lord.
*'''Ashigaru Spearman 1:''' ''Lord Nagahide has been in there for a while.''
*'''Ashigaru Spearman 2:''' ''Have confidence in the great lord! He can handle anyone with his blade. I hope.''
Naoe and Yasuke deduced that the estate has been overran by a group of [[bandit]]s. They managed to find an opening to get into the estate unnoticed.
<tabber>
|-|Naoe=
*'''Naoe:''' ''Hmm. Silence.''
As she got closer, she heard a sound.
*'''Naoe:''' ''Is that a melody I hear?''
Naoe entered the residence and found Niwa Nagahide fighting against the bandits.
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''You! You are not one of them! Help me dispose of these snakes!''
Having eliminated the bandits, she spoke to the ''[[daimyō]]''.
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''(pants) There were more of those thugs than I expected. Thank you.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''I am Naoe, an ally of Yasuke. I came to speak with you.''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''Good to know you, Naoe. I remember Yasuke. A good man and warrior. Talk must come later. First, let us attend to the dead.''

|-|Yasuke=

</tabber>
Naoe and Yasuke joined Nagahide outside the residence where the bodies of the deceased were burned.
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''Life all ends the same. No matter what we've done, we end up in flames. Nothing matters.''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''We can choose to leave this land better than we found it.''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''To die like that, so quickly. I am glad he is not here to bear the shame. My overconfidence would have been my downfall if you did not arrive.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Who are these attackers?''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''I do not know, but my clan is being hunted.<br>Threats. Ambushes. Murders. And these killers are loyal. I could not get a single word from their lips. I suspect they are the same people who hunted down Lord Nobunaga. That damned [[Akechi Mitsuhide]] - misplaced trust, a lethal mistake.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''What makes you say that?''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''All I have learn is they are led by a [[Takeda Motoaki|man]] who wears a mask. The Performer.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''The Performer... does he wear a fox mask?''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''You are not the only one he has disturbed. We would like to find him.''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''As would I. Perhaps I know one who can help. A man named [[Hong]] who deals in information. Say "mian" to him, and he will know I sent you. Look for the red lanterns. Or, use your nose. You will not miss him.''
Naoe and Yasuke accepted Nagahide's information and bid him good bye as he left.
*'''Naoe:''' ''Was that man involved in the [[Tenshō Iga War|invasion]] of [[Iga]]?''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Yes, he was. As were many others.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''(sighs) That is the past. We are here now. Fighting for the future. A trail of blood, a pile of bodies. Our enemy works quickly and ruthlessly.''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''Then we must be quicker and look for the man Lord Nagahide mentioned.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Hong. But what did he mean by using our noses?''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I thought you would know.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''Why would I know?''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''(laughs)''
*'''Naoe:''' ''We should start.''
<tabber>
|-|Naoe=
*'''Naoe:''' ''I'll go on ahead.''
*'''Yasuke:''' ''I will meet you there.''
Yasuke first took his leave. Shortly after, Nagahide spoke to Naoe again.
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''When you meet Hong, tell him to save a bowl for me.''
*'''Naoe:''' ''A bowl of what?''
*'''Niwa Nagahide:''' ''You will know it when you taste it.''

==Outcome==
Naoe and Yasuke helped saved Niwa Nagahide from a group of outlaws hired by The Performer. After dealing with the dead, the ''daimyō'' sent them both to seek out a man named Hong who may have information on the attackers.
