Quest stages of Wayward Souls
1. Speak to Pennington
Talk to a robot called Pennington parked nearby and he will tell you about the two women standing a little further away.
A robot named Pennington was waiting outside of Vault 76. It might know where the Overseer went, or what's happening in Appalachia
It seems people have returned to Appalachia - and two are just down the hill! Pennington suggested I speak to them in order to determine their intentions.
2. Speak to Lacey
I found two women arguing on the side of the mountain outside Vault 76. I should see if they know anything about the area.
The women have directed me towards "The Wayward," a recently set up bar farther down the mountain. I should pay it a visit.
3. (Optional)
Roper, leader of the Free Radicals, wants me to find a treasure for him. He said I should start out by visiting a local bar called the "Wayward."
4. Visit "The Wayward"
Head to The Wayward.
I stumbled across what appears to be a new roadhouse under construction - The Wayward. I should pop in, see if they're serving yet.
5. Deal with the attacker
Someone's trying to rob "The Wayward." They mentioned something about a treasure. Maybe I could intervene and find out more.
You can distract the attacker by asking him about the job and then Mort will show up and shoot him.
After completing Wayward Souls you will get or will be able to get Hunter for Hire.
