Synopsis

The Sentient Hunhow awakens from his slumber, seeking revenge on the Tenno for their deportment during The Old War. Allying with the Stalker, they seek to destroy the "womb in the sky", afterwards revealed as the Tenno's weakness: a Reservoir on Lua that was subconscious within the Void past the Lotus to protect the Tenno from the Sentients.

The player is tasked with finding Hunhow, who infiltrated the Lotus' mind during the events of Natah. With the unexpected help of Alad V, all traces lead to a Sentient relic on Uranus, dug up past the Grineer. Interacting with the relic, the Lotus tries to define the location of Hunhow, only to be foiled by allowing Hunhow to know the location of the Reservoir. With the Stalker en route, the player chases after him to forbid him from reaching the Reservoir outset. The player follows the Stalker through a Void Gate into an Orokin Tower in the Void, realizing that this Reservoir is on Globe'south moon that was hidden within the Void. Disabling the Orokin Tower'south Void mask mechanism allows the moon, known equally Lua, to reappear in the Solar Arrangement. Successfully thwarted the Stalker's attempt to destroy the moon from a Void collapse, the just thing left to practise is to protect the Reservoir.

The truth behind the Reservoir is that in it lies the Tenno's truthful class, the Operator. In the Reservoir, the Operator directs their Void free energy to control the Warframes remotely, a process chosen Transference. The Stalker rendezvous with the role player but upon seeing the Operator, he hesitates to impale, leaving the player to bargain with hordes of Sentient fighters with their newfound power: the power to aqueduct Void energy to fight in their Operator form.

Upon the Orbiter, the player has to put their Operator into a new Transference vessel: the Somatic Link at the back of the ship. In the final clash between the actor and the Stalker, the player proves victorious and afterward encounters the Lotus in-person for first time. As the Lotus carries the Operator into the Somatic Link, the thespian regained their memories as a Tenno, remembering ane of the five great schools that they once belonged to in the Orokin Age.

This is who you actually are. A Tenno. More than than homo... but once a kid like whatsoever other.

Walkthrough

"You're non supposed to be in here! You're going to ruin the surprise!"

The post-obit article/section contains spoilers. Please finish the quest before proceeding.

The Second Dream is automatically made available upon completing the Neptune Junction. The Quest tin can exist activated in the Quests section of the Codex.

Cinematic: The Meeting

A cinematic for the quest can exist constitute on The 2nd Dream's Codex Entry before undertaking whatever missions.

The cinematic begins with the Stalker walking up to a platform, surrounded by floating Sentient fighters on all sides. As he walks up to the eye of the platform, a disembodied phonation speaks to him virtually the Stalker's vengeance and the Tenno'due south seeming immortality. As the Stalker drops the severed caput of a Loki unto the platform, the voice reveals that the Tenno "essence" has been subconscious from them by the Lotus, and tells him that he knows that it is institute in a "womb in the sky". Using its powers, the voice gives Stalker new armor and a large greatsword with which to reach its mission. The Stalker asks for the vocalisation's identity, to which it replies as Hunhow, Sentient destroyer of worlds.

Infiltrate the Grineer Archives: Umbriel, Uranus

An Archwing is required to undertake this mission.

The Lotus contacts the Tenno to warn them near the threat of the Sentient Hunhow, who has been infiltrating her mind. She also warns them about Hunhow using the Stalker to hunt downwards the Reservoir, the Tenno's weakness that the Lotus has kept hidden.

The Tenno are sent to Uranus on a Spy mission to infiltrate data from the Grineer on their cognition of Hunhow, who they released after excavating him. All iii data vaults must be successfully hacked in society to complete the mission, otherwise the mission volition neglect.

The first Information Vault hacked reveals that the Grineer had been excavating pieces of Hunhow, and that Hunhow is capable of controlling each part of him with his mind, making Lotus wonder if said machinery is how the Sentient has been invading her mind. Infiltrating the second vault reveals it to take already been accessed and corrupted, thus Lotus entreats the Tenno to discover another vault to larn more data. Hunhow contacts Lotus at this betoken, telling her of his intent to restore the Lotus. While Lotus defiantly claims that he'll never find the Tenno, Hunhow tells her that he already knows due to his infiltration of her mind.

The final vault gives Lotus the final piece of data she needs, revealing it to be a personal message to her. Lotus excuses herself, telling the Tenno that she needs to contact the person who sent the message, before telling them to head to extraction.

Find the Sentient Fragment: Cressida, Uranus

An Archwing is required to undertake this mission.

The Lotus, fearing that Hunhow tin can listen in on her, tells the Tenno that the message she received was an offering for aid. All the same Lotus does not reveal who said person is, only that she doesn't trust them. She then sends the Tenno to Cressida, Uranus to notice a fragment of a Sentient.

In one case the Tenno arrives at the mission site, the mysterious helper is revealed to be none other than Alad Five, who claims knowledge of what they are looking for. Despite their antagonistic past, he asks the Tenno to trust him due to the greater threat of the Sentients.

Upon diving underwater and reaching the site of an Orokin shipwreck, Alad V, unwilling to completely guide the Tenno in finding the fragment, urges them to search the digging site for information technology themselves, providing hints merely if the players are near the objective. (If the player takes approx 5 minutes, Alad V will say "I surrender! Hither it is! Can't you lot find anything not marked on your map??" accompanied by placing a way-point to the objective) The actual objective at this betoken is to find a tunnel closed off by rocks, which tin be destroyed to reveal a passageway leading out of the earthworks site and into a large underwater cavern with a Sentient wreck. The fragment is establish upon exiting the waters above the cavern, a Sentient relic that the Lotus says she could use to view the memories of her father.

In one case the Tenno interacts with the relic, Lotus sees a vision of the Stalker who is apparently confused, earlier realizing that she has been caught in a trap: interacting with the relic has allowed Hunhow to ascertain the location of the Reservoir, with the Stalker at present en route to it. Alad V then tells the Tenno to hurry back to extraction. The mission ends in one case the player reaches extraction.

Follow the Stalker: Neso, Neptune

Dorsum on the player'due south landing craft, Alad V asks the Lotus what "the Reservoir" is and whether it's a Tenno weakness. Lotus but tells him that he has already earned his favor from them, only for Alad V to counter that the Tenno are his investment, thus he wishes to encounter this through.

The next mission takes the Tenno to a Corpus Outpost on Neso, Neptune. The fragment apparently lead Hunhow to a path leading to the Reservoir which passes through said outpost, and that in order to attain it Hunhow needs the Stalker.

Reaching the objective marker reveals an Orokin portal room, what Alad Five calls a "Void Gate". On inbound the room, the Stalker vanishes as the void portal collapses. A Sentient Conculyst or Battalyst volition suddenly appear, a powerful enemy unit of measurement which the Tenno must defeat. Doing so will reveal the location of a Void Key the Stalker used in the portal room to Lotus' surprise. The Void Key must be inserted into the Torsion Beam Device at the center of the portal room to reopen the void portal, at which point the Lotus urges the Tenno to enter, stating that the Sentients will be unable to follow the Tenno there due to the Void being poison to them.

Upon arriving at the other side of the portal, Alad V tells the Tenno to find a nav console to figure out where they are. The nav console is located in a room with a window looking out at a sight that shocks Alad V: The Moon. Alad V explains that the Moon was thought to have been destroyed, expressing wonder at it existence in the Void all this time and at the Lotus' ability to have put information technology there. The Lotus tells the Tenno that the Reservoir is the source of their power, and must exist protected. Once the nav console is activated, the Lotus detects the Stalker leaving on a ship headed to the moon and urges the Tenno to find a way to follow him.

Alad Five realizes that the Orokin Tower the Tenno are currently in is used to hide the Moon's location in the Void, thus suggesting that the belfry should be disabled to allow Ordis to pick them upwards. To disable the tower, the Tenno must find a marked console hidden inside a retractable embrace within a generator room and hack it, which will permit iv more retractable panels in the generator room itself to get visible. These 4 panels volition reveal a blue vial each that must be destroyed, but are protected past electric arcs. One panel will exist unprotected at all time, and so the Tenno has to await for the next unprotected panel later on destroying each vial.

Once all four panels have been revealed and their vials destroyed, Ordis will contact the actor to tell them to prepare for pickup.

Protect the Moon: Plato, Lua

Ordis mentions that he recalls having been to the Moon once, and that he is concerned for the Tenno. The Lotus explains that the Reservoir is the source of the Tenno's power, and that its clandestine drove the Stalker mad. The Lotus asks the Tenno for forgiveness, telling them that they must now protect the Moon by keeping information technology within the Void.

Arriving on the Moon, the Tenno are tasked with stopping Stalker from reaching the Moon's Void Control Room, whose aim is to initiate a void collapse that will destroy the Moon, which volition destroy the Reservoir and in turn the Tenno along with information technology. Before players can reach the Void Control Room all the same, the Stalker initiates the collapse, which causes shadow versions of hostile Infested to appear throughout the complex. The Lotus decides to pull the Moon out of the Void and back into normal space to forestall its devastation, tasking the Tenno to reorient the Moon by reactivating the Void Control Room's void compasses.

Upon reaching the Void Control Room, players must first hack a console at the center of the room, and and so reactivate iii void compasses located in 3 towers in the room by getting shut enough to the devices to drain the Warframe's shields. The void compasses can merely be reactivated one at a time, and merely after one of them has been activated tin can the next one be worked on. Hacking the central console will make the Shadow Stalker appear, the improved version of Stalker with new weapons and abilities. Simply like a normal assassination by Stalker, if the Tenno is able to lower the Stalker'due south health far enough, he'll disappear, though this will be much harder than earlier due to Shadow Stalker featuring similar resilience equally the Sentients. When the compasses are reactivated, Hunhow threatens Alad V for being Orokin, causing Alad V to bid farewell to the Tenno as he has apparently been found by Hunhow, while reminding Lotus of their deal.

With all compasses reactivated, Lotus tells the Tenno to go to the Pendula, which are devices that maintain the Moon's stability in the Void, and deactivate them. There are iv such Pendula located in four pillars in the eye of the room they are located in, protected by a floating and teleporting Security Middle that volition shoot waves of slow-moving subversive free energy at players. Every bit both the Pendula and the Security Centre are allowed to whatsoever form of attacks, in society to destroy the Pendula the Tenno must trick the Security Middle into attacking the pillars past making the Security Eye shoot into the Pendula'south direction. Intendance must exist taken after the first Pendula is destroyed, as the Security Centre will brainstorm to perform wide scale expanse-of-issue attacks after its standard beam assault. Note that these AoE attacks cannot destroy the Pendula and become more frequent with every Pendula destroyed.

After all the Pendula are destroyed, the Lotus orders the Tenno to become to extraction every bit soon equally possible. Forth the style, disembodied voices belonging to a man named Ballas and a woman named Margulis conversing to each other tin be heard, arguing about the fate of "devils".

With the Moon now dorsum in the orbit of World, a solitary Conculyst tin can exist encountered before the Tenno reaches extraction, though information technology is not necessary to fight information technology to consummate the mission.

Save the Reservoir: Grimaldi, Lua

This mission cannot be performed with a group, and must be done solo.

The Lotus informs the Tenno that they will have to deed fast, as the Moon is now exposed and the Stalker is already en route to destroy the Reservoir. One time again, the Tenno arrives on the Moon. Equally the Tenno gain through the level, more disembodied voices similar to the previous mission will be heard, revealing more of Margulis and her work, along with the Orokin'southward reactions to it.

At the finish of the level is the Reservoir, a identify with h2o falling into a small pond below. A cinematic then plays, where the Tenno is walking towards the Reservoir as it observes a golden flower-shaped pod emerging from the waters. The pod opens upwardly, revealing a person wearing a black bodysuit, which the pod then carries out on a chair. The person is dumped in front of the Tenno, resulting in the screen flickering and breaking up, with the Warframe of a sudden falling limp, before the view blacks out. The vocalisation of Margulis was heard:

Dream... not of what y'all are, but of what you want to be.

—Margulis

At this message, the person in the bodysuit crawls over to the Warframe, and so touches it. The act reactivates the Warframe, and makes information technology conduct the person in its arms. The Stalker appears afterwards seemingly ready to impale them, only hesitates, earning the ire of Hunhow who proclaims that Stalker's hate is weak, before sending the Stalker away to permit Sentient fighters to stop the job. The Lotus then orders the Tenno back to their transport, referring to them as the Operator.

At this point, the role player must at present carry the person to the extraction betoken while being followed by Sentient boxing drones. The Warframe's mobility is profoundly reduced while carrying them, walking much slower and being unable to use any parkour moves, including sprinting or jumping. Although they have no access to their weapons or offensive Warframe abilities, the Warframes tin still use defensive abilities like Iron Skin , and the person can fire an energy beam powerful enough to destroy the Sentients to hold off any enemies while the Tenno moves to extraction. During this stage information technology is impossible to actually die, as the player'southward wellness tin can never drib below one. Defeating the Sentient drones is not necessary to extract, only it is recommended because the requirement for the Sedna Junction requires killing 5 Sentient enemies on Lua, who are very hard to kill outside of this mission.

Dorsum aboard the thespian's ship, the Warframe still carries the person in its arms, and the Lotus tells them to head deep inside the Orbiter department to find the Somatic Link, located inside a room at the very bottom rear of the Orbiter. Unbeknownst to them, the Stalker has infiltrated the spacecraft and is ordered by Hunhow to kill the Tenno earlier they reach the Somatic Link, which is the device at the very rear of the room. The Stalker volition then proceed to attack the Tenno, firing cherry-red energy waves that tin can button back the players a meaning distance abroad. The player must dodge the Stalker'south attacks and/or destroy them with their energy beam attack to accomplish the Link. Once the thespian reaches the Link, they must utilise the energy beam to feed free energy into the Link via a blue energy sphere at the top of the Link. When the Link has received enough free energy, an energy blast from the Somatic Link will button the Tenno back, forcing the Tenno to repeat the procedure of going past the Stalker and refilling the Somatic Link. This must be done iii times.

Once the Somatic Link has been filled 3 times, the person and the Warframe are both blown back from the energy dispersion, separating them. The Stalker stands before the Warframe, lifeless once more after existence separated from the Operator's affect. The person cowers in fear, as Hunhow monologues how the Warframe (up to this point thought to be the Tenno) is a "metal puppet" to the existent Tenno, who is actually the helpless person from the Reservoir. After stabbing the Warframe with his greatsword State of war , the Stalker approaches the Tenno and gain to asphyxiate them. Inexplicably, the Warframe revitalizes and breaks War in half, dispelling Hunhow'southward control, causing the Stalker to be overcome with immense pain. The Stalker flees, releasing a blinding flash that knocks the real Tenno unconscious.

Aftermath

The Lotus so appears, personally carrying the Operator into the Somatic Link. A customization screen will then appear, revealing the Operator's true face up, which players can edit to their desire.

After the player's customization is complete, the Lotus reveals the Operator is the Tenno themselves, their true form. The Lotus begins asking questions to see how much the Tenno remembers, and helps him or her recover some of their memories. She explains how one of the Orokin, Margulis, helped save them from their uncontrollable powers by creating a dream-country for them to live in. The Lotus further explains that Margulis was killed past the Orokin Executors and her ideas were used by them to create "Transference", which allows the Tenno to control their powers through a remote "surrogate", the Warframe.

The Lotus continues to explain some of the Tenno'southward history and the five swell schools they founded, all based on different principles of combat. The actor is then given a choice between one of the 5 schools – Madurai , Vazarin , Naramon , Unairu , and Zenurik . The choices leading upwardly to the 5 smashing schools have no bodily gameplay effect but instead reorders the choices of the Tenno School, with the schoolhouse most suited to the Operator actualization on the left and choice to the right being the least suited.

After confirming their schoolhouse, the Lotus tells the Tenno that this volition be their principal Focus, rewarding the player with a Focus Lens of the called school. This completes the quest and Ordis volition transport the actor an inbox bulletin expressing his relief that the Operator is live and well, besides as delivering the remaining piece of the State of war greatsword that was broken off from the weapon, as well as a Scar sigil. Meanwhile, the Shadow Stalker, nonetheless hellbent on executing the Tenno for their crimes, volition continue to chase the thespian downward in his upgraded Sentient form.

Tips

In the final battle confronting Stalker in the Orbiter, the Tenno'south beam attack tin be used to directly destroy Stalker'south energy moving ridge assail, preventing it from striking the histrion.
- Firing the beam in bursts is more than effective than firing it continuously, as the beam is powerful enough to destroy both Stalker and his attack with only a second of shooting, and it allows the player to conserve free energy to burn down more shots to intercept Stalker's attacks.
- Exist reminded that it is non necessary to defeat the Stalker equally the main objective is to fill up the Somatic Link.
Stalker will take a different Codex entry and will also be stronger after completing the quest. If the player is attempting to fill the codex, it would be recommended to complete the entry earlier starting the concluding "Save the Reservoir" mission.
- After completing The Second Dream, Stalker will permanently remain in his Sentient-upgraded course. Prior to completion of the quest, Stalker will remain un-upgraded when performing an Assassination on the player.
- Information technology may nevertheless be possible to complete this entry by scanning Stalker while he attacks other players who take not completed the quest.

Trivia

The 2d Dream was first hinted at past Ordis following Update 14.0 (2014-07-18), when he occasionally says "Do not split the dream" equally role of his recurring lines.
- After this quest was released, Ordis no longer quotes said recurring lines.
- It was afterward directly mentioned by the Lotus during the Natah Quest in reference to how she protected the Tenno, maxim she "hid them away in the second dream".
While the replies that the player chooses during the Operator'southward chat with the Lotus has no gameplay effect, the choice of replies are used to reorder the choices of Tenno Schools once the pick screen appears, with the school most suited to the Operator appearing on the extreme left, and choice to the extreme right being the least suited, ex. choosing the conversation options "I remember studying" and "Nosotros sought knowledge" will put Naramon to the leftmost side equally the well-nigh desirable selection. Players are still able to cull which school they desire however.
Certain elements of the Second Dream appear in previous lore entries in the game:
According to Keith Power, one of the soundtrack exclusive to this quest had its choir voiced by Jen McMillan.
When running Inaros or Nidus , the void compasses will drain health instead of shields.
The results screen upon completing the final mission of the quest will say that information technology's an Assassination mission, despite killing Shadow Stalker is not necessary.
