Spirit Talk
Main Quest.
Objective:1. Defeat the Runner Crew. 2. Keep Shannon Alive.
You are going to start in the new location already in the combat mode. There are5 enemies that you need to handle: 2 Shadowrunners, an Apprentice, an Orc Shadowrunner and a Troll Shadowrunner.
Start In a standard way by deploying your party members in safety. Your best choice are the columns and crates located right next to you. Then, focus your fire on the first one of the Shadowrunners, nearest to you. The poor bastard was standing with his back turned at you, and therefore has a poor chance of survival.
As soon as your turn is over, there will be a Troll Shadowrunner dashing out of the door on the right, with an automatic rifle. He is your next target, alongside with the Apprentice on the left. A Troll is a Troll; a lot of health so, it is possible that you will lose the entire turn to eliminate this one. It is a good idea to do that, even before the remaining enemies come close.
At this point, there are 3 enemies left. The Apprentice comes equipped with a machete and should already be quite close., which is why you should deal with him next. It would be best if they didn't get the chance to come close to your characters. Use spells like Slow or Mind Wipe, to slow the Orc down and take him out when the moment is right. Finally, focus on the remaining two. They should not be too much of a problem.
Unfortunately, after you have dealt with all of the enemies in this room, you will remain in the combat mode. This will make it slower to move around. You need to go through the door to the next room. At the other side, there are more enemies for you to take on. It is a good idea to tend to wounds and strengthen your party members beforehand.
After you have entered the next location, order your characters to covers. There are two enemies in total: a Shadowrunner, an Orc Shadowrunner and an Apprentice. Two former of these start behind the armchairs in the middle of the room, with the latter one in the area on the right.
Your first target should be the Apprentice, who should have already made it close enough. He is quite weak so, he should hit the ground after two initial shotgun, or automatic rifle shots.
Then, take to the Shadowrunner, and then to the Orc Shadowrunner. This will finish the combat phase and you will be able to proceed.
Reward: None.
Objective: Summon the Spirit.
Before you start summoning spirits, collect the Ares Flight Recorder[1], dropped by one of the enemies.
Once you obtain this valuable item, talk to Shannon[2]. Still, instead of talking to you,, she will summon spirits - Forgotten Souls[3]. Talk to them and you will learn a few interesting facts about the Ripper. If, during your last visit to the warehouse, you have collected all of the four items, you can now show them during the conversation to obtain more information. Still, for the quest itself, you only need two of them.
Reward: None
Objective: Search the Spot Where the Victim's Body Was Found.
After the spirits are sent away, there will appear another quest. The area mentioned in it, is located in the first room. Approach the marking and click onto it. This way, you will obtain an item connected with your quest - DNA Evidence. The only thing left to do is talk to Shannon an leave this location through the Hangar's exit [4].
Reward: 8 KP
