Part Four: Thicker Than Blood
Briefing
Connection to family makes people weak, Character. It clouds their judgment, allows them to be controlled by outside circumstances. Gorgon was controlled by his desire to be with his family in the Syndicate. Cockatrice, the man we lost track of in the tunnels, went through all the effort to hide from us, only to reveal his position by trying to track down his sister, who has become a seer. He joined Project Phoenix with the promise that he would be close to his sister, a promise that I kept. You can, as in your case, give it to them - for a price. Or you can cut them down, if what they want conflicts with your own plans. In Belladonna's case it will be the latter. I allowed him to see his sister in the times that I deemed fit. Eventually, his visits to her stopped, once he realized she was not his sister anymore; she was a seer, emotionless, attached to nothing but her job. The perfect human being, you could say.
It appears now that Cockatrice wishes to free his sister, to try to return her back to normal. This is something that will never happen, but yet he still clings to this hope, this faith that it somehow will happen. It will be the end of him. Here is the location of the lab. The Resistance are raiding it as we speak.
- And what will you be doing?
I have appeased Praetor Tilman, for now. While you are out dealing with Cockatrice, I will be narrowing down the location of Belladonna. Her time is going to come to an end soon, Character. This, I swear.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Cockatrice is weak, Character. It is time to show him what happens when you falter.
Mission Objective(s)

You've put down Cockatrice, preventing him from reuniting with his sister.
Enemies

- Seer 0871 (Seers Tracker) (Minion) (Ally)
- Seer 6789 (Seers Tracker) (Minion) (Ally)
- Seer 3871 (Seers Visionary) (Boss) (Ally)

Cockatrice's Final Gasp | |
Cockatrice gasped for air in his final moments, turning to you...
Sinclair... he knew that my sister... would become just another tool for Praetoria... yet he led me to become this... I thought... I thought I could save her. I just... I just... Cockatrice's eyes shut. |
Debriefing
Welcome back, Character. TPN is once again reporting on your efforts to combat this new threat, just as we planned. Cockatrice's fate is a sad one. It is something that I hope you can avoid. You should not become attached to anything that you cannot control, Character. Cockatrice, Gorgon, they were attached to people, free people. Human beings who, when given the chance, would let them down. It is the way of life, as you have seen with Belladonna; given freedom, those you place trust in will ultimately fail your expectations. It is a lesson hard learned, but learned nonetheless. But come, we should not dwell on somber matters. I have excellent news. I have tracked down a possible location of Belladonna and the two remaining members of Project Phoenix.
