Detailed Walkthrough
Captain Riebel wants me to find a mercenary named Thyper on reservation D-106. Of course, no one has a clue where Thyper might be, so at first I need to check his hideout. It would also be useful to take a walk around the reservation and find out where Thyper was last seen.

It looks like I'm not the only one searching for Thyper. I saw some well-armed mercenaries near the entrance to his shelter. I need to search Thyper's place. Perhaps I'll be able to learn something regarding his whereabouts.

It seems that Thyper is actually in big trouble. I had to wipe out an entire squad of mercenaries inside his shelter. Their leader begged me to let him go, and in return he told me that they work for a man from the Committee. Having searched the "bedroom", I found a damaged infobot that belonged to Thyper. As I have no other clues, I need to try to get it to work.

When the infobot got off the ground, it turned out that its artificial intelligence module was damaged, and talking to it is like trying to have a conversation with an air conditioning unit. We need to locate the artificial intelligence module and get the bot working properly again.

Morthy turned out to be less willing to talk than I had expected. I've managed to learn from him that Dr. Onner, the owner of a pharmacy on reservation D-106, might know where Thyper is.

I've managed to find out that a man named Lumpface the Duster is helping Thyper hide. I'll have to look for Lumpface in zone B-27—a border area of undetermined status, which is known to be a very troubled place. Now the Ordinate is getting ready to purge the zone, so it's not easy to get there. I need to consult Captain Riebel on what to do next.

Captain Riebel promised to see to it that I be enrolled as a member of the military operation called Whirlpool, whose purpose is to clean up zone B-27. I need to use that chance to find Lumpface the Duster's pharmacy, where I'll have a chance to talk to Thyper.

I have managed to find Thyper. Lumpface the Duster gave him shelter and treatment at Onner's request. Thyper has agreed to cooperate and promised to come to the Nest as soon as everything settles down, and it's likely that the cheeky bastard is going to keep his word. I need to report all of this to Captain Riebel.
