The Echoes of the Past mission in Starfield represents a crucial turning point in the Crimson Fleet storyline. Players must travel to the frozen planet of Suvorov to explore The Lock, an abandoned supermax prison filled with deadly alien creatures. Successfully navigating this facility reveals essential clues regarding Jasper Kryx's legendary lost treasure.
Infiltrating The Lock and Meeting Delgado
Your journey begins by touching down on Suvorov to meet Delgado and the rest of the Crimson Fleet crew. As you approach the entrance of The Lock, swarms of aggressive Grylloba creatures attack the team. Clearing out these threats allows Delgado to unlock the outer security doors and lead the squad inside.
Once deep inside the deteriorating structure, structural damage separates you and a fellow recruit named Mathis from the rest of the group. Left isolated, you must work together to find an alternative route through the cell blocks. During this trek, Mathis proposes a secret scheme to betray Delgado and claim the loot for yourselves.
Searching Kryx's Cell for Evidence
Navigating through Cellblock D requires overriding security terminals to unlock restricted sections. After gaining access to Section 3, locate cell D-03-118, which belonged to the Crimson Fleet founder. Inspecting an innocent-looking desk lamp inside the cell reveals a hidden audio slate.
The recording details Kryx's escape route and points toward a hidden cache in the shower area. Following these clues leads to a locker containing an additional audio recording that provides crucial security codes. With these codes, you can unlock a maintenance tunnel that serves as the ultimate path out of the prison complex.
Defeating the Queen and Escaping Suvorov
The final leg of the walkthrough takes you into the facility's shuttle bay, where a massive Grylloba Queen blocks your exit. Defeating this powerful alien boss requires heavy firepower and strategic positioning to avoid its crushing attacks. Once the area is clear, board the abandoned shuttle and pilot it back to The Key.
Back on the space station, reporting your findings to Delgado earns you significant recognition within the fleet. You can choose whether to endorse Mathis or report his lack of cooperation, directly deciding his future with the faction. Delgado rewards your bravery with the powerful Keelhauler legendary pistol alongside thousands of credits.
