A Friend in Need is the fourth mission of Thief.
Description[]
Basso's in trouble and needs help. Seems the Baron wanted that book as much as Orion so his General came to visit. He didn't find it but dragged Basso off with a beating and worse to come. Orion says the book will help him and his Graven save The City but right now infiltrating the Keep and getting Basso out is priority.

Story Recap[]
|
Thanks to the General, that was a narrow escape from the Keep; my hand is evidence of that. Still, finding the Primal Stone piece in the great safe was a surprise. Not thought about that since the accident. Between ghosts and Graven it's getting hard to think straight. What did Erin say in the vision? Go to Moira Asylum. Away from the crazies on the street and off to the crazies on the island. |
