Set in the decopunk world of Aether & Iron—where aether-powered tech has lifted 1930s New York into the sky—you step into the shoes of smuggler Gia, navigating a city split by class, crime, and conspiracy. In this part we touch upon three mission “The Red Line”, “Ghost in the Rigging” and “Life on the Edge”. Nellie helps out a family near the well by the end of the mission.
Missions and Locations
Mission: The Red Line
Pier 6
Head to the Ferry port on the Hole to find Nellie trying to get a ride on Mr. Throgg’s ferry. This will get you the quest “Ghost in the Rigging”. Go to Pier 6 for any upgrades for your crew. You can meet Tajana here, who runs the black market on the island.
Ask her to upgrade your car’s defenses. She will give you the details on Saoirse Byrne or Banger. Tajana wants Gia to steal a weapons shipment and take them to Banger. Go through the skill checks to find out more details about the job. Accepting the job will update the quest.
Mission: Ghost in the Rigging
Abandoned Aether Rig
Go back to the overworld and take the ferry to White Street. From the First Point Ferry location, head to Abandoned Aether Rig.
You will be stopped for a surprise encounter on your way there. It’s an aether storm. You can either keep to the course or get out of the storm. Its an easy daredevil check. If you stay in the storm, you will lose a weapon. If you chase the weapon, this will start the mission “Life on the edge”.
Mission: Life on the Edge
Island Edge Neighborhood
Click on the new location Island Edge Neighborhood.
Go through the conversation with Nellie about the houses and the area. There is an Impossible Gumshoe check. Check inside the house regardless. You will find the shotgun soon. It will update the mission. As you try to leave the house you will hear a cough, you can choose to leave or shake your head and stay. Either way, you will end up meeting a aether patient. Nellie will want to help with the Wasting. Let her.
This will update the mission. The man will give you a Jumping Repulsors set. Outside, have a conversation with Nellie. This will complete the mission.
