Guide to completing the 'Aeldari in Distress' quest in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. Discover the locations of Forgotten Twins, Odaenathus XI, and Tenebris Aquae star systems.
Alright, let's get you through the 'Aeldari in Distress' quest in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. This one's all about hopping between a few specific star systems to find out what's going on with some Aeldari ships. Don't worry, I'll walk you through exactly where to go and what to expect.
- 1Forgotten Twins Location:
Start from the Janus system. Look towards the bottom right of your star map. You'll want to head right, towards Langrenn's Belt, and then down to the Forgotten Twins system. Once you arrive, interact with the derelict ship. It's not super eventful, mostly just giving you some insight from Yrliet about its Aeldari origins.
- 2Odaenathus XI Location:
This system is located towards the very top of your star map in Chapter 2. To get there from the Forgotten Twins, you'll need to navigate through a few systems: Mu-Rho 79, Mundus Nulius, Mundus Valancius, and Narmer IV, before heading right to Odaenathus XI. Heads up: This system is crawling with Drukhari. There are four Drukhari vessels guarding points of interest. If you get too close to them or the planets they're guarding, you'll trigger a space battle. These guys call for backup, so it can get really tough. Your best bet is to carefully navigate through the gaps between them, avoiding the planets entirely, to reach the Aeldari vessel. You can then scavenge and loot the ship for more information.
- 3Tenebris Aquae Location:
This is the final system and it's located on the far left of the star map, so it's a bit of a trek. A good way to get there is to head back to Telikos Epsilon (Janus). From there, go to Orsellio Prophecy, then navigate left to Adermatt II. From Adermatt II, move down one system to reach Tenebris Aquae. When you arrive, you'll find the Imperial Fleet fighting an Aeldari ship. You have a choice here: you can either help the Aeldari by attacking the two Imperial vessels, which lets the Aeldari ship escape, or you can tell the Imperial vessel to stand down. If you do the latter, the Aeldari ship will try to flee, but its engines will go into overdrive and destroy the ship when you catch up. Sadly, you can't actually make contact with the Aeldari vessel here, but this is the last objective for the mission. Don't stress too much about the outcome here; you'll get more context for Yrliet's questline later in Chapter 3.
- When navigating to Odaenathus XI, prioritize stealth and avoiding combat. The Drukhari reinforcements can quickly overwhelm you if you engage them carelessly.
- At Tenebris Aquae, understand that regardless of your choice, you won't be able to establish contact with the Aeldari ship in this particular encounter. The mission primarily serves to advance Yrliet's personal story.
Completing this mission progresses Yrliet's personal questline and provides narrative insights into her past and the Aeldari situation. Specific loot will depend on your actions and scavenging within the systems.
