Finale: There Can Be Only One.

Briefing

Jones wants you to report back to him. He's got orders for you, probably from Tub Ci Tang.

  • Report to Jones

Everything we've dug up about Tang says that he was the leader of the Tsoo, the asian gang that absorbed the remnants of both the Triad and Yakuza after the Hamidon Wars.

Tang and the Tsoo were, reportedly, completely obliterated fifteen years ago. All reports said that Tang had died in the fighting, but if he's resurfaced in the Syndicate, then there is no telling how many of his old comrades might have found solace there as well.

From what you've told me, he appears to have gained immense personal insight from his master. That means his psychic potential was unlocked by the mysterious master of the Syndicate. Whoever his master is, they must be an immensely powerful psychic... and the fact that Praetor Tilman has not discovered them worries me, frankly. I don't know if the Seers will be able to shield you from such a person's attempts to read your mind.

Be very careful.

Talk to Richard Jones

Unnecessary Solicitation

Jones said it was important.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Richard Jones

Briefing

Master Tang has informed me that you will have the honor of slaying Octavian.

Tang has offered Octavian a chance to die with honor, but the coward refused, and instead has chosen to sacrifice more of his men by hiding behind them. Finish Octavian off yourself, he will not be given the honor to die at the hands of Master Tang.

Members of the Resistance working undercover for Calvin Scott should inform him of what is happening.


Restore the Syndicate

Unnecessary Solicitation

So, Tang is to have you take out Octavian. Be careful, Character. If they've discovered your true loyalties then they may be trying to kill two birds with one stone here.

Mission Objective(s)

Map: P_OFFICE_45_LAYOUT_01_06

The Syndicate are ready for you. Octavian is nowhere to be seen.

  • Restore the Syndicate
    • Defeat Octavian

You eliminated Octavian and discovered not only the reason for the Syndicate Corp Wars, but also who the leader of the Syndicate really is.

Notable NPCs

Octavian Mensk has an immense following within the Syndicate. He is charismatic and intelligent, making him the perfect candidate to lead the Syndicate when the old leadership is dead.

Briefing

I... I underestimated... him.

  • Tang offerred you the chance to die with honor, why did you refuse?

There was more at stake than my honor. I was fighting for the beliefs that the Syndicate was founded on. The beliefs that were cast aside when Yin threw his lot in with your kind!

  • Yin?

Octavian laughs at the unexpected revelation.

So you didn't even know who you were truly working for. Priceless. Well done Master Yin, well done.

  • Mr. Yin is the head of the Syndicate!?

Is it so hard to believe, Character, that the CEO of Yin Corp, the largest mega corporation in the world is also the head of the world spanning Syndicate crime organization?

Unfortunately the Syndicate's days are numbered. Now that Yin has won the Syndicate will be torn down in the war between Cole and the Resistance.

  • What are you talking about?

Yin has allied the Syndicate with the Resistance. That's why I aligned myself against Yin.

  • Why did Yin ally with the Resistance if it caused so much strife?

For his daughter.

Penelope Yin is Missing
Octavian Mengsk, the last of the rogue Syndicate bosses arrayed against Mr. Wu Yin's true Syndicate, revealed that Mr. Yin's daughter, Penelope Yin, went missing, thus starting the Syndicate's Corp Wars.

She's what started this whole war in the first place. Well, she didn't do it specifically.

She disappeared, Character, and when that happened everyone started pointing fingers. Even Yin was convinced that one of us had taken his daughter.

The other bosses, like myself, knew it was only a matter of time before Yin accused us of the heinous crime, so we split off.

Then Yin turned to the Resistance for aid, and that changed everything.

  • So Penelope is still missing?

I don't know if she ever actually was, to be honest.

All I know is that the Syndicate as we built it has been destroyed, and all that remains is the Yin family and his few remaining allies.

For my part I wish I had kidnapped Ms. Yin... at least then I'd know before I die that she is safe.

  • "Good bye Octavian." (Finish him!)

You render Octavian unconscious.

  • Leave


Report back to Jones

Unnecessary Solicitation

Jones wanted to know if I saw you. Report to him, then fill me in on everything.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Report back to Jones

Briefing

Octavian is dead, order has been restored and the Syndicate is once more whole again.

As an outsider to our organization, Character, you may not be able to fully appreciate what you have done, but Master Tang sends you his heartfelt thanks for the assistance you and the Resistance have provided us thus far.

Soon it will be time for the Syndicate to repay our debt to you.

  • Leave


Debriefing

Mr. Wu Yin...

The CEO of the largest mega corp in the world. A global spanning economic super power. Of course, it all makes perfect sense.

If Yin plans on uniting the Syndicate with the Resistance then we have very little time to act, Character. Before Yin can consolidate his strength after this conflict we will have to strike.

Talk to me when you are ready to move against him.
