Follow Arjay further and go up some stairs. After that, you will find some enemies. Kill them all, then enter the control room after.

Inside the control room, turn right and loot the chest.

Then turn around and press the button on the other side of the room to open the cell doors.

Follow Arjay

After opening the cell doors, follow Arjay to the rooftop. On the way, you will face small enemy groups.

Clear roof

Once you reach the rooftop, kill all enemies here

Follow Arjay

Talk to Arjay near the wall in the southwest part of the rooftop area.

Take Grapple-Grabber

Just pick up the grapple-grabber from Arjay.

Grapple to safety

After picking up the grabber, look up the wall behind Arjay until you see the grapple symbol and press it to pull yourself up.

Slide down

Now follow Arjay and slide down the building into the water.

Swim to shore

Just follow the marker to the shore on the right side.

Meet up with Arjay

Go through the nearby cave now. It’s a small cave with a straight path.

After the cave, turn right and go up the hill under the big tree.

Then follow the path and go over the big tree to meet Arjay.

Escape with Arjay

Follow Arjay and kill enemies when they attack him.

Clear Order plant

After jumping down two waterfalls, you will reach a big open area with enemies. Kill them all to proceed.

Find Crimson Resistance stash

Go to the door where Arjay is, then turn right and use the grappling hook and pull yourself up.

Follow the path to the backside and use your grappling hook again.

Follow the path and go over a tree to reach an area with a waterfall.

Once you reach the area, turn around and use your grappling hook again, open the chest up there, and pick up one of the shields to finish this objective.

Meet up with Arjay

Now return to Arjay near the door.

Reach Arjay’s ride

Follow Arjay through some doors and jump down a hole, then move forward to trigger a cutscene.

Kill Warden Scathe

After the cutscene, a fight against the warden will start. This is an easy and simple boss fight.

Revive Arjay

Once you defeat the warden, go to Arjay and revive him, which triggers a cutscene
