Bring in Nemesis Defector
The Horror of War
Part: One
Briefing
Let's cut to the chase, Character. This is big. An officer of the Nemesis Army has contacted us. He says he wants to defect. He also said that he wanted to talk to you specifically. Knowing Nemesis, this could be a trap, but it's too good an opportunity to pass up. I want you to bring the defector in.
The defector's name is Captain Sherman. He wants out, and that's very interesting. The Nemesis Army rarely has any defectors, so it's almost too unlikely to be a trap. In either case, I doubt they'll be willing to let him go easily. Get Sherman to safety, then we may be able to find out more.
Mission Objective(s)
There have been few defections from the Nemesis Army. Or at least, very few successful ones.
- Bring in Nemesis Defector
- Lead Capt. Sherman out
Sherman went up in fire. Ironic.
Werfer Jaeger: I suppose it'll be the chopping gear for Captain Sherman, eh?
Dragoon: There's no room for traitors in the armies of Lord Nemesis.

Fake Nemesis: And after we took him from his barbarous mirror universe!
Colonel: My Lord Nemesis, the traitor approaches our position.
Fake Nemesis: The Nemesis Army shall suffer no betrayers!
Dragoon: Kill the traitor!

'It was... Nemesis!' |
| With his dying breath, Captain Sherman tried to tell you the explosive information that had caused his defection.
'Nemesis... It was all him. The war, the lies... The truth is at the Shadow Shard base. Take the coordinates. Learn the truth. The whole war, started by Nemesis! The Rikti were his dupes... It was... Nemesis! As the life left him, he handed you a bloodied piece of parchment with a set of dimensional coordinates and one word: 'Proof!' |
Debriefing (Mission Failed)
Captain Sherman's fate was unfortunate, but his last words confirmed a suspicion I've had. The first time I visited the Rikti Homeworld, they were a peaceful people. When I learned about the invasion I couldn't believe until I saw it myself. Any people can be manipulated, and Nemesis is a master of it. In retrospect, it's obvious, but we still need to convince others, and find the proof.
Meet with Longbow
The Horror of War
Part: Two
Briefing
Before we can act on Captain Sherman's information, we need a clear corridor. I've re-opened talks with Longbow. We need thier help to boost our portal's signal if we're going to investigate that Nemesis Army base in the Shadow Shard. They're willing to meet with one of us to hear what we have to say, and I'd like you to be the one to talk to them.
I know you probably don't have a great relationship with Captain Dietrich, but at least she knows you're one of our best. Lt. Sefu Tendaji should be there, too. He's been friendly to us in the past. He might be able to help win her over to our side.
Mission Objective(s)
This isn't the kind of reception you expected! The base in under attack from the Nemesis Army!
- Meet with Longbow
- Find Lt. Tendaji
- Find Capt. Dietrich
- Defeat Nemesis Army
You have done all that you can here.
Fake Nemesis: For Lord Nemesis!
