- Interact with it, and a window will pop up.
- Purchase the number of hats you’d like to assign to your Rot.

How to get Rusu Mask in Kena Bridge of Spirits

- Reach Rusu Mountain and go through the cutscene with Kena, Rusu, Beni, and Saiya.
- Head down the path and you’ll come to an open clearing with a large rock surrounded by trees. Approach it and Rusu will appear.
- Talk to him, and directly behind him, you’ll see a lever that the Rot can pull, starting off an archery trial. Complete it.
- Around the clearing, you’ll find three other locations that Rusu will appear at. You’ll need to complete all of these tasks.
