Find The Ema skip!

Here's an interesting find you might not have tried. You trigger the encounter for the monster that searches for you while you hunt down the three emas by investigating the doll which gives you hard clues for the emas. You should remember on replays that the emas you're looking for are unique. If you go back to the door and around to the west, unlocking gates, collecting items and checking emas, you don't ever have to spawn the blind shrine monster. If you're not on a difficulty that requires getting a missing gear from him, you can skip the entire event for a casual stroll at night.

Hope this helps someone who hates that part!
