Quest Group: Misc
Prerequisites: To play this mission, you must first complete the mission Defensive Measures.
This mission is a follow-up to the "Defensive Measures" mission.
Keoni Alpin now has her seismic sensors set up and has the processing power to analyze the data. She said she might have some findings tomorrow.
Keoni Alpin
Akila City
The simplest solution to pass the required amount of time is to sit on the couch located against the wall of the guard tower and skip the required amount of time.
Keoni Alpin should have her data from the seismic sensors. I should go talk to her.
Keoni, meanwhile, has moved to a new location. Find her and talk to her. Again, she will need your help. She will ask you to talk to Davis as she suspects that he is sabotaging her sensors.
Keoni's data is highly unusual, and she needs me to talk with Davis Wilson about it.
Davis has also changed location where he now is. You will find him on the wall near the eastern gate. He will tell you that he is not sabotaging Keoni's sensors and offer you to go on patrol with him.
Davis Wilson is concerned about the Ashta behaving strangely and he wants me to help him find answers by tracking them. I need to meet him at the East Gate.
When you are ready to go on patrol then let Davis who is waiting for you near the gate know about it.
Davis Wilson and I are trying to figure out what has the Ashta behaving badly by tracking them outside the Akila City walls.
Follow Davis. From time to time he will stop to examine the tracks. When you reach the remains of the security bot, you will be attacked by three Ashta. Kill them all.
We survived an attack by the Ashta. A security robot was tampered with to rile them. I should talk with Davis Wilson about it.
After killing Ashta, talk to Davis again. He will instruct you on what you should do now.
Davis Wilson said that there is a terminal that would've had to be used to control the security robot that was agitating the Ashta. Hopefully I can find some clue who is responsible there.
Return to the city and head to the Akila Guard Barracks. Use the terminal you find there to access the database. Choose Access Logs > Robot Updates.
The security terminal shows that Bailey Kirklin is behind the robot that riled up the Ashta. I should confront her about why she did it.
Talk to Bailey who you will find in front of the entrance to the barracks. When you tell her that you know what she did she will admit and tell you what her intentions were. You will be given a choice of what to say.
Bailey Kirklin confessed to commandeering the robot in order to discredit Keoni Alpin. She did it to protect her boss, but I'm not sure he's going to appreciate it. I should talk with Davis Wilson.
Return to Akila City's eastern gate and speak with Davis Wilson. You will be able to choose from the following dialog options:
No matter what you choose you will receive the same reward: 75 XP and the same amount of credits. This mission will end and a new mission will be added in your mission log.
With the Ashta disturbance not being the fault of Keoni's sensors, Davis Wilson is starting to see the light that Keoni's research may bear fruit. Time will tell.
After completing this mission, you will be able to play the mission Leader of the Pack.
