You will now see the Nimble Thief's body at the top of the hill, where you can pick up the Blood Letter. After acquiring it, the Honor Among Thieves quest will be added to your log, and you'll be given the objective of delivering the Nimble Thief's letter to his brother, the Gentle Thief.

To deliver the letter to the Gentle Thief, you need to keep making your way through the Crimson Forest. Return to the split path at the Outlaw Trap Bell, and this time, instead of taking the right path, take the left path.

Along the way, you'll need to defeat Jing Ye, the Outlaw. This is a mounted boss, so for the first stage of the fight you'll need to dodge the charges from his horse and then hit him with combos between attacks.

After you defeat the horse, he'll take the battle to the ground and walk at you with his sword and shield. You then need to break through the shield before finally finishing him off - the Dread Axe is brilliant for this, as you may have realized in prior boss fights.

Finish the fight once he's shieldless, and then continue following the path forward until you reach the Thieves Camp.
