Walkthrough
You've just touched down on Freya III as part of your "Final Glimpses" questline, and your scanner pings an intriguing distress signal from Nishina Research Station. Fly over and land at the designated landing zone to investigate.
Exiting your ship, you're immediately struck by the alien landscape but push forward towards the Nishina Research Station. The ominous atmosphere fills you with a sense of foreboding. Your companion remains in the ship, leaving you to handle this mission solo. Approach the station's intercom to announce your arrival, and you're granted immediate access. The doors hiss open.
Once inside, Ethan greets you. After the usual pleasantries and your choice of additional questions, you follow him deeper into the labyrinthine corridors of the research station. Suddenly, the surroundings blur and you're transported to a ruined, apocalyptic version of the station. Alien creatures jump out from crevices and corners, launching a surprise attack. Dispatch them, and just as abruptly, you're warped back beside Ethan, who's as baffled as you are.
You continue to follow Ethan, feeling a little disoriented, when you're transported again, this time meeting Rafael—the person who actually sent the distress signal. Chat with him and you'll suddenly find yourself back in the hallway with Ethan. You're now suspicious of what's really happening here but continue forward to meet Director Patel.
Walking through a series of hallways, you're intermittently warped into that grim, destroyed universe, battling hostile aliens along the way. When you finally meet Director Patel, you discuss the bizarre events. She's surprisingly calm, and directs you to follow Maria to the lab.
Your journey with Maria is cut short when you're hurled back into the alternate universe. You explore some side rooms, fighting more alien creatures, and find Rafael again. After another perplexing conversation, he gives you a key for the pantry, aiding your progress. You warp a few more times, spooking other station employees, until you find yourself in the security office with Ethan. A persuasion check here could snag you a unique weapon.
Pressing onward, you pass through more doors and fight more creatures. Eventually, you reach a large room with a door marked "Emergency." Make your way through it to find the Lab on the second floor. Speak to Maria once you're inside. She's working on calibrating a probe to stabilize the distortions. When prompted, you stand in the appearing distortion.
Another warp. But this time you find the probe control unit in the ruined lab. With this probe in hand, you control the warps and rejoin Maria. She informs you that Director Patel wants to see you. After a brief conversation and an optional detour for supplies from Dr. Barakova, you head for the elevator and descend to the lower levels.
Your objective now is to get to the final lab. The underground is a maze filled with automated defenses in one universe and alien creatures in the other. Progressing through this multi-universe gauntlet, you manage to override several lockdowns in various sections like the Facilities and the Accelerator, dodging turrets, and fighting off both mechanical and biological adversaries.
Finally, you reach the room with the probe. You have to disengage seven power interlocks while fending off attacks. Choose wisely which universe you wish to stay in as it affects your final conversations and rewards. With all interlocks disengaged, you can finally shut down the probe.
An artifact appears. Pick it up.
Depending on your choice of universe, you either meet with Director Patel or Rafael to conclude the mission. If you chose to stick with the universe where Rafael exists, he offers to join you back to your ship and can be recruited later at Viewport in New Atlantis.
