After freeing Taro's spirit in the first "act" of the game, Kena is tasked with finding and helping a legendary Woodsmith on the western side of the Kena: Bridge Of Spirits map. To get there, she first has to get through the Storehouse and open the door to the other side.
Thankfully in the Storehouse she meets a spirit called Hana, a close friend of the Woodsmith, who shows Kena how to summon and use a Spirit Bomb to activate the old technology in the Storehouse. For more information on the Spirit Bomb, check out our Kena: Bridge Of Spirits abilities walkthrough.
