The strange man you met upon arriving at Kepler, Lodi, has promised to help you navigate the Exile's Accord and retrieve the Aionian's lost strangelet capsule from the Archon. First, he needs your help conducting some preliminary investigations of the region. He shares what he does know: the Accord is segmented by temporal distortions, but he's seen Eliksni commanders use particles like keys to phase through them. They're called Accelerons.
