I'm just hooked and intrigued at the story that I haven't been doing sidequests, I'm 40hrs in too, I'll probably do the sidequests when I feel like I'm near the ending.

So far, there is a sidequest where you even obtain a rare blade. Kinda sad story. Also there are sidequests which have tondo when you want to max out the abilities of your rare blades.

Where can I start this quest? And is tondo a new member/secret ally of the 5 I currently have or a blade, location?
