Back to Wildfire4p2 chapter 2, Songs of the Past.
Mission 1 - Church of the Obsidian
Faction: AmmatarMission Type: Encounter
Space Type: Deadspace
Requires: Archeology I (for using Analyzer I)
Web/Scramble: Ammatar Navy Delta I, Ammatar Navy Gamma II
At Gate (25-50km, no aggro until within 15km of gate)
7 frigates (Ammatar Navy Delta I, Ammatar Navy Gamma II, Ammatar Navy Soldier) Web/scramble3 battleships (Ammatar Navy Armageddon, Ammatar Navy Apocolypse)
Pocket 1 (30-40K)
5 frigates (Ammatar Navy Soldier)5 cruisers (Ammatar Navy Maller)
10 battleships (Ammatar Navy Armageddon, Ammatar Navy Apocolypse)
Tips:
- The Apocolypse NPCs like to get in close (under about 6k), so you can kill everything else with long range weapons then refit for short range and murder them.
- It doesn't appear that you need to kill all the NPCs to complete the mission
Mission 2 - Heresiology
Faction: AmmatarMission Type: Encounter
Space Type: Deadspace
Requires: Archeology I (for using Analyzer I)
Initial Spawn (55-75K)
10 frigates (Ammatar Navy Delta 1 Support Frigate, Ammatar Navy Detective, Ammatar Navy Gamma II Support Frigate) Web5 cruisers (Ammatar Navy Maller)
4 battleships (Ammatar Navy Armageddon, Ammatar Navy Apocolypse)
Tips:
- There are three original relics, each of which needs to be hacked with an Analyzer
- Hacking each of the three originals creates more; each of them leads to three more, for a total of 12 relics (three groups of 4)
- Many of the relics contain ancient documents
- It can be difficult to track which relics you have checked; tackle them in groups and make sure you have opened all 4 of each group
- The Blood Obsidian seems to be in the last relic opened

Mission 5a - Revelation
Mission Type: EncounterFaction: Gallente
I dropped the book in the container and the mission completed. No next mission was suggested. I moved towards the NPC, who opened fire on me, so I killed him. I tried taking the book back out of the container but wasn't allowed to.
In response to a petition, the GM advised that I had, in fact, completed the arc. The only rewards were the standard mission completion and time bonus, totalling about 250,000 isk.
Mission 5b - Retractation
Mission Type: CourrierFaction: Defiants
I dropped the book at the Defiants Storage Facility in Todeko and got a message from a Defiant NPC that ends the mission. I went back to Hiva Shesheva in Tanoo and got a reward of 520,000 isk, and also 10 RSS Core Scanner Probe. (45 in Base sensor strenght instead of 40).
