Ori and the Will of the Wisps #04 - Finding Ku

Now with our path open to us, we set our sights on finding Ku who was trapped in the Silent Woods since the night of the storm. It’s a dangerous place, and home to Shriek who patrols them to keep the area home to darkness and despair. We are able to reunite with our friend, but even in a happy reunion, we must be cautious to avoid Shriek as we seek to find our way out of here safely.

It almost appears that we are out when Shriek finds us, and tragically Ku is injured while attempting to face the dangerous hunter. Left in the care of the Moki, Ori seeks to strengthen the wisps to get aid to Ku, and even Kwolok realizes how dire the situation is, leaving his marsh to take a more active role in helping Niwen.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is a beautiful Metroidvania game developed by Moon Studios in 2020. It follows the story of the light spirit Ori as he searches Niwen for his close friend Ku and finds himself in an epic journey to bring peace back to a land facing corruption.
