Freeing Taro is not the only focus of the game so no, the game is not end yet. It's been a fantastic journey where I found Mr. Rusu and then I had to look for three relics to free Taro. I was confused all this time but now I'm clear about Taro being a spirit, Beni and Saiya also.

After interacting there by the Fallen Tree, a cool cinematic took place where I was shown Kena was kind of remembering Taro carrying the mask and then suddenly the mask came alive and started floating.
The mask banished and I could see Taro coming towards Kena carrying the lantern but suddenly something extraordinary happened with him. The spirit was take by a monster and the final boss before freeing Taro became a version of him, its Corrupt Taro.
All this time, I've been saying the enemies in this game are not strong enough and I don't feel challenged while fighting them. But this last boss changed that thought and made me wish it was like that easy always.
Yes, he was strong enough to take me down if I'd not evade all his attacks properly but still I got some shots while trying to dodge his attacks. The hammer rot was helping me decreasing his life but he had a big life line.
Look how he was squeezing the girl when I was failing to dodge when he was coming closer. It happened twice after the monster lost more than half of its life. The more it was losing life, the more violent it was becoming.
The rots helped me a lot in fighting this monster. When I didn't have power for rot hammer, I could send the rots to distract the monster and then I could damage his life.
At last it fell losing all its life and I just had to use the rot to finish it off and it left the spirit of Taro alone.
There was Taro waiting for me to get to him and interact with him when he was wearing the mask and stood there like a lifeless little boy and then he took off the mask.

Taro started telling the tale about what really happened to him and to the village. He said the sickness that took their parents, was spreading through the village. Food was running low, everyone was scared and Taro had to look after the kids so he felt helpless.
Saiya wanted to stay but Taro thought they could go to Rusu for help but something was not right in the woods so Rusu was worried and he sent them back to the village.
Taro had to protect Beni and Saiya as they're all that Taro had to care about, he gave the kids the last food he had.

Leaving the kids in their sleep, Taro went out in the woods to find foods in the next morning and he suddenly noticed something unusual at the Mountain Shrine so he went in the open to check it out.
There was a huge explosion at the mountain and it affected the woods as well. Taro died right there and so did all other living beings around along with the kids and covered the land in darkness.

It was Taro's spirit that started looking for the kids. He already lost his knife somewhere which became the first relic, then he ran to the lantern cave to look for the kids as he didn't found them where he left them and he lost the lantern there in the cave as the cave started shaking.

Then he went to the cave of the Guardian Tree and offered some foods there in front of the stones that they made look like them when they were alive and it became anther relic.

Taro still felt guilty for all that happened so Kena said its not his fault and that the kid still needs him. Then the kids ran to him and it was a magical moment. One of the kids apologized to Kena as they lied about getting her to the Mountain Shrine but Kena said its okay.
All three spirits now started praying to their god so they could be free and they disappeared after that.
Now I had to return to the Mask Shrine to honor Taro but I had this option to meditate there and when I tried it, it looked cool.
We'll go for another adventure next, to free somebody else.
I'll show what happens next later.
I personally took all the screenshots from my play and I used a logo of the game from online to use in the thumbnail.
This is Pikachuuuuu signing off. Over and out.
