Mission Index
Help Doc Delilah
My Dad and I were both kidnapped from the store. I got away because the Clockwork helped me, but the Lost, they still have my Dad. I'm so worried about him, it hurts. I tried looking on my own, but if it weren't for the Clockwork, the Lost would have caught me. So I've been asking for help. I just got a call from Doctor Delilah Stein that she may have found something, but her call got cut off, and I know she's in trouble. Could you help her Red Tomax?
You are so awesome! Doc Delilah used to be a hero, too, but she's like, an archaeologist now. he's digging all around here looking for stuff, so she's been everywhere and talked to a lot of people. I asked her to keep an eye out for anything about my Dad, just in case. So of course, she gets cornered by some Vahzilok somewhere without cell reception. She's okay right now, but those Vahzilok guys are really scary. You better get her out of there.
Many old hero bases were lost when Faultline destroyed Overbrook. If Penelope's right, Dr. Stein was investigating one when the Vahzilok arrived.
Doc Delilah found this? Weird. I remember this. I remember all of this. I remember my dad working with heroes, I remember being in hero bases. I don't remember him ever building an earthquake machine, and without Mom around I was almost always with him. This is how I remember it. But how can that be?
Oh, wait, that's my phone.
Hey, Penny.
Yeah.
Sure.
Yeah, Ann and I will be by later. Ok, bye.
That was Penelope. She Says that Doc Delilah told her something major. She wants to see you.
Hey, Red Tomax! I totally owe you for all this, but it was really worth it. Doc Delilah had some big news. But I think I'm going to have to ask for your help again, if that's ok?
You're the best! I know you'll find my dad!
Hit the streets to get info from the Lost.
What Doc Dellilah found out was that those smell guys with the weird minds, the Lost? Well, she's talked to some of them, and she asked about what happened to my dad. They told her that they went after Dad and me on purpose. One of their big chiefs wanted us captured for something weird, I'm sure. Anyway, the guy they ordered to do it was one of their own named 'Muxley.' Doc said that Muxley's still in Faultline, but she doesn't know where. If you can find him, that's sure to lead to my Dad, right?
Thank you sooooo much! You are totally the best! I think the way you do this kind of thing is by 'Hitting the streets,' right?
This would be so much easier if those Lost guys were normal. But then, if there weren't so many of those weirdos around Dad, I could just talk to him. It's driving me crazy! I can toalk to my friend Imani in Kenya, and my friend Yuki in Japan, and we can all hear each other fine, but my Dad's somewhere in the city and I can't talk to him because those Lost guys mess everything up with their crazy! It's so unfair!
One of the Lost you were fighting cracked, and told you where to find Muxley.
Mission Complete: One of the Lost you were fighting cracked and told you where to find Muxley.
One of the defeated Lost told you the location of Muxley, one of their leaders. He's hiding out in an abandoned floor of an old office building. He didn't know the address, but you can figure out where to go.
This building will probably be destroyed soon, but in the meantime strange things fester in the ruins.
Objective: After you defeated Muxley, you learned where they were holding Mr. Yin, and more.
After you defeated Muxley, he told you where you might be able to find Mr. Yin. He also told you why the Lost had tried to abduct the Yins in the first place:
'We came to the ruins first because the time is near, and we feel it in the waters here. But then it called to us. It wants to be used again. The ones marked by the Spider-Lord seek it for their master, and for their own desires. The pirates of the air seek it only because they know it is valuable. And we seek it to help bring about the new world. And when it comes to light, it will need a new master, a new source of power. The old man is only for control over the girl. There is a reason the Brain-in-Brass protects her.'
Mission Complete: You learned where to find Mr. Yin!
Yes! You found Muxley! Well, I know Dad wasn't there, but he did tell where to find him right?
Don't worry, Daddy, Red Tomax we're gonna bring you home soon!
You're the coolest! Hey, do you need a side-kick? No, forget it. My Dad would totally flip out.
Rescue Mr. Yin
Now that we know where Dad is, the only thing left is to get him. This may be kinda rough, though. You will be careful, right? Or get, like a super-team or something?
I think it's going to be pretty tough in there. Just, like, be careful, okay? I wouldn't want to be all sad because I got Dad back but you got killed and stuff.
Oh, hey! That's an idea! Give me a second...
Okay, I asked the Clockwork King really nicely, and he's agreed to let you borrow some of the solders he has protecting me. It's really big step for him. I mean, he's kinda paranoid, sure, but deep down I think he's an okay guy.
Penelope hands you a fistful of clockwork parts.
Whatever use this place once had, now it's a vast nest of the Lost. And somewhere inside, Penelope's father Wu Yin is held against his will.
Mission Complete: You rescued Penelope's father Wu Yin from the Lost.
Awarded for rescuing Mr. Yin.
YOU DID IT!
YoudiditYoudiditYoudidit!
Dad's home and safe and everything! You saved him, Red Tomax! He's already getting the shop open, can you believe it? Oh, that's right, he wanted me to tell you that you can go in any time you want. But that's not important. Dad's home and he's safe, and it's all because of you.
Thank you, Red Tomax. Thank you.
