The 'Salvager in the Sky' quest is an engaging side mission that takes you to the orbital station Byzantium, where you'll uncover a story of desperation and resourcefulness. This guide will help you navigate the station's complex social strata and complete your objectives efficiently.

To initiate 'Salvager in the Sky,' you'll need to speak with a character named Udom Bedford on Byzantium.

If you choose to help Cass, you might need to find specific components for her, negotiate with Udom Bedford on her behalf, or even find a way to provide her with legitimate resources. If you choose to side with Udom, you may have to fight Cass or persuade her to surrender. The outcome will depend on your investigation and your moral compass.

The rewards for completing 'Salvager in the Sky' vary depending on your choices. You'll receive experience points and Bit, but the most sificant reward might be the positive reputation you gain with certain factions or individuals, or the unique item you might acquire through a compassionate resolution.
