Quest - A bitter farewell - a promising future

This is the first quest the player gets. You've finally decided to leave Mars for good and want to be stationed on Na Pali. You say goodbye to your mom and head to New Moscow's MRN Spaceport to travel to Na Pali, your new home and workplace.

"A bitter farewell - a promising future" is the introductory, first task you're thrown into. Life on Mars is shown, the farewell with your mother (optional) and how you fly to Na Pali. There's no fighting here, except for an optional tutorial fight in the MRN Spaceport. You can visit Mars a bit and explore New Moscow while going from the MRN Spaceport to your mom's home, before traveling to Na Pali. The MRN Spaceport has it's own Metro Station, which is 3 Metro stations away from your old neighborhood (where your mom lives).

Saying goodbye to your mother is optional, but will have consequences if you don't. This first quest is a perfect intro and tutorial for the key interaction mechanics, basic combat and gameplay. And ultimately teaches the lesson, that dealing and being in a relationship with most of the characters has consequences.
