Steps

1 Destroy all the Ankhors at the Origin Lodespring View on map

Radio

Perlica
Let's park Tata here. Too risky to take it along right now.

2 Destroy the first Ankhor No map marker available

Dialogue

Chen Qianyu
Nailed it!
Chen Qianyu
There's a wall of light blocking the way... Is this the barrier Royle was talking about?
Perlica
You're probably right.
Perlica
When we destroyed the Ankhor, that barrier seemed to change as well.
Chen Qianyu
Yeah. A piece is obviously missing from the symbols! These Ankhors definitely have something to do with this barrier.
Perlica
Indeed. We know little about the situation in this area. Stay vigilant, team.
Perlica
Let's go and take out the remaining Ankhors.
Perlica
The Ankhors are slowing our progress to reach the Cradle of the Ages...

Radio

Perlica
We need to destroy that Ankhor first.
3 Destroy the second Ankhor No map marker available

Radio

Chen Qianyu
Endmin, look! I found an Originium branch here as well.
4 Destroy the second Ankhor View on map
5 Destroy the second Ankhor View on map

Radio

Perlica
Watch out, Endmin!
6 Talk to the survey team member View on map

Radio

Fiona the Comms Officer
Endmin! The safety gate to the Old Mines is back online! Head through to reach the second Ankhor.
Chen Qianyu
Darn it! The bridge is out! And we can't use the crane car control panel!
Chen Qianyu
Wait, what's that...? There are people over there!
Perlica
They could be the survey team that failed to retreat.
Perlica
Not sure how long those Originium saplings will last... Let's hurry and take out that Ankhor!
7 Destroy the third Ankhor View on map

Dialogue

M
Matvei
Thank goodness you're alright! I was getting worried about you!
M
Matvei
The last Ankhor should be in the Logistics Area. Go ahead and take a short break. I'll clear the roads for you.

Radio

Chen Qianyu
Sheesh! I miss that Hub Base Ankhor. At least it didn't give off shockwaves like these.
Chen Qianyu
If it did, our entire Base could be leveled.
Chen Qianyu
This Ankhor just activated itself!
Chen Qianyu
It's starting to glow! Watch out!
8 Destroy the third Ankhor View on map

Radio

Chen Qianyu
There's Originium all over this place! Why would UWST abandon it? It could've been their Kolossals!
Perlica
They probably had their reasons. With Originium this active, the risk of Oripathy goes way up.
Perlica
Originium demand in Valley IV has declined. The yields of other mines are more than capable of meeting local energy needs. There's no reason to sacrifice lives for overproduction.
9 Defeat the Aggeloi No map marker available

Dialogue

Perlica
We can connect Tata to the signal tower and perform another regional scan like we did before.
Perlica
Once the scan is complete, we'll park Tata at this place.

Radio

Chen Qianyu
These machines look really old. I hope they're not dangerous.
10 Destroy the third Ankhor View on map
11 Cutscene 2 radio

Radio

Perlica
Careful!
Chen Qianyu
That was close. Thank goodness we're fast.

Chen Qianyu
This is such a hassle... Luckily we have these Originium branches.
Chen Qianyu
But how do these Originium branches block the shockwave? Are they any different from the usual Originium ore?
Perlica
These branches seem to respond to our Endministrator... After all, the Great Oak does owe its existence to the Endmin.
Perlica
The other Originium formations we found along the way do not share such structural properties. Perhaps we'll know more once we restore the Endmin's memories.
P
Panicked Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (F))
I ... I don't know how to th-thank you. I thought we were all going to, to, to die here...
C
Calm Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (M))
Things would've ended horribly for us if wasn't for you... You saved us all.
Perlica
It's what we do. Are you alright? Is anyone hurt?
C
Calm Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (M))
Everyone's alright! The glowing branches saved us! All the stories that Granny Jenner told us are true!
Perlica
Good. The shockwaves have ended. Can you make it back to the Mining Camp on your own?
P
Panicked Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (F))
Wait! Hold on! We, we, we were... Hngh..
Perlica
Just breathe easy. Relax. Things have settled down already.
P
Panicked Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (F))
Okay... We saw a strange figure while escaping to this place... I-I've never seen an Archosauria in the Valley...
Perlica
Nefarith...
P
Panicked Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (F))
She suddenly disappeared when the barrier showed up. I thought I was seeing things... My gut tells me that she's dangerous...
Perlica
Don't worry. There's no need to think about this right now. Just return to camp and rest well. We'll handle things from here.
C
Calm Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (M))
You're my saviors. I believe in you.
C
Calm Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (M))
The road ahead is out. Perhaps we can help you out a bit by using that crane over there.
P
Panicked Survey Team Member (Survey Team Member (F))
Good luck out there.
Chen Qianyu
I knew it! Nefarith was the one who left the barrier and all those Ankhors.
Perlica
It doesn't matter what she's going to leave behind. We must end her schemes. Let's go, team!
Perlica
This is the last Ankhor.
Chen Qianyu
Cradle of the Ages... I wonder what it's like inside right now.
Perlica
To take down the Aggelos inside there, the UWST was forced to detonate the Great Originium Oak... Endmin, your top priority is to keep yourself safe, no matter what happens. Chen, I'm counting on you as well.
Perlica
The barrier to the Cradle of the Ages should be gone. Let's head back.
Chen Qianyu
Leave it to me.
Chen Qianyu
Whoa! Hide behind something!
Chen Qianyu
There's a branch stuck to this Originium Slug.
Chen Qianyu
It's moving! Let's follow it!
Chen Qianyu
Look! Power is back online. I think we can start using the control panel for the crane car.
Perlica
Wonderful. Perhaps we can use the storage containers to create a path.
M
Matvei
Hey, hey! Are you actually the Endmin of Endfield? Power is back online! And I have a feeling that you were the ones who fixed it!
M
Matvei
Meet me at the intersection! I'm using the crane car to clear out the rest of the obstacles!
Perlica
The road is clear. Let's go, Endmin!
Chen Qianyu
Man, this Logistics Area seems totally unusable. They'll have to rebuild the whole place, maybe even repave the roads!
Perlica
The entire Logistics Area has been devastated... What a tragic loss.
Chen Qianyu
Watch out, people!
Chen Qianyu
Ugh. This is a dead end... We should have taken the other way.
Chen Qianyu
Hey! I think we can head up over there!
