Description:
Now you're one of the people who know about Dr. Aeon's past as Dr. Egon. In a deniable fashion, that is. Now, you can do jobs that would arouse too much suspicion in others. Which is good. Because I got a lot of jobs. The first is a two-for-one. First point is Amanda Vines. She's WSPDR's star reporter. She's popular. A 'crusading reporter' type. People love her. She's got a bad habit of investigating Arachnos business. Lord Recluse finds her presence useful, though. A voice of dissent makes him look more tolerant, more legitimate. And a bit of manipulation makes her very useful. That's what you're going to do. Ms Vines has been digging into Dr. Aeon's current research. Now she's in trouble. And that's the second part. She snuck into a base were Aeon's expirimenting on something. Knowing him, it's something he shouldn't be experimenting on. I want you to find her, find out what Aeon's working on, and find out what she's learned.
Aeon keeps a lot of secrets, even from me. If I'm to look after Arachnos' interests, I need to know them. Vines is an expert at finding out secrets, and she's been after Dr. Aeon hard the last few weeks. I want to know what she knows. Don't hurt her, though. Like I said, Lord Recluse likes to have her around. Oh, and there's one more thing: You remember Professor Echo? He might be after Vines, too. Make sure he doesn't get to her.
Post Mission Debrief: Aeon's working on the Shivans, and VInes suspects Aeon's real identity. The first part is a surprise. The Shivans are supposed to be isolated in Bloody bay. He could get in a lot of trouble for that. Good. I had suspected she might have started to figure out Aeon's real story. Don't know how close she is, though. I also didn't expect her to be looking into the Power Transfer System. that's very interesting. Dr. Aeon keeps the PTS under very close watch. Even I don't know all the specifics. Maybe it's time to learn more.
