Overview
Dark Academia is a world quest in The Edge of Fate on Kepler, unlocked after the story mission "Morphology" (around when you get Mattermorph). Ikora Rey guides it and Dean Rebecca receives the result. About 20-30 minutes.
Walkthrough
- In Augur's Bethel in the Exile's Accord, destroy three fuses (the first in a pipe near the small bridge, the others via Mattermorph near the Nine-touched train and Matterspark pad). This drops the shield on the Matterspark device; charge it to open the door.
- Scan the remains with Ghost, investigate the shrine, and pick up the Aionian device.
- Return the device to the Aionian encampment in the Caldera.
- Deliver the artifact to Dean Rebecca.
If objects will not interact, progress further in the campaign first.
Rewards
- 3 Fated Ciphers and an AION Renewal armor piece or Kepler weapon.
Trivia
- The device is an energy engine the Aionians built chasing functional immortality, then sealed away after fatal tests.
