Rogue Trader Astray Walkthrough
On Footfall travel to the Atrium. After descending all stairs you will find a group of refugees and instigators and beyond them Hieronymus Doloroso. If you get near them you will find the instigators want to kill the refugees and Hieronymus Doloroso is trying to stop them. If you do not intervene the instigators will kill the refugees. You can intervene and save them via either a Coercion test or the Commissar origin. If you save the refugees you can speak to them on Void Dock Alpha-Rho in front of your shuttle and make a conviction choice.
After the argument Hieronymus Doloroso will leave for an elevated platform to the left where you can talk with him. Talking with him and going through all dialogue options will give you various chances to obtain conviction points as well as The Naviica, Lost in the Void and Xenos on the Rampage rumors. According to him, there is a heretic den dwelling in the Shadow Quarters area of Footfall. He wants you to deal with the heretics. Finally, you can tell him you want to trade to unlock the Drusians merchant.
Once you reach the Cultist's Lair, you will encounter 3 traps along the way. The only door present will take you to the cultists performing a ritual. The member in the middle will transform into a Pink Horror and Argenta then shoot one of the cultists. From here you will enter combat.
After the battle you will have a talk with one final cultist before ultimately allowing Argenta to end him. Before exiting, there is one more room with a locked chest on the left.
The quest doesn't tell you but after killing the cultists you can return to Hieronymus Doloroso and inform him. He will give you some experience and 200 Reputation with Drussians.
Back on the voidship ask Argenta to explain to you her past. Argenta will ask that she does this in the chamber with the Warrant of Trade and you will go together there. Argenta will pray and then tell you of her past.
Major choice: How you reply to Argenta's story will count towards one of her three character development paths.
- "Your actions were driven by hubris, Argenta. It's as if you wanted to keep your discovery all to yourself." - pushes Argenta towards the Repentia path
- "That's understandable. Searching for your destiny, for your place in the world, is a special matter, a personal one. You either succeed at it, or you don't." - pushes Argenta towards the Order path
- "That was irresponsible of you. If you had gotten yourself killed on the planet, no one would have learned about its existence, and the holy relic would have been lost." - pushes Argenta towards the Repentia path
- "If you were the only one who realised what you were dealing with once the planet had been described to you, then this secret was yours and no one else's. As is the decision of what to do about it." - pushes Argenta towards the Zealot path
The quest will end. If you speak with Argenta again on the voidship bridge you will have new dialogue options.
