He says he will grant the woman one favor if, in exchange, she will lead him and his follower Benkei through the blinding snow to her hidden village.There Yoshitsune and Benkei take a much-needed rest, but when they try to leave, they become lost in the snow.

Meanwhile, Yoritomo is searching for the entrance to the village in order to capture Yoshitsune.
