InStarfield, scientific advancements and discoveries have spread far past known flora and fauna to alien worlds with plants and animals that behave differently than what we humans knew on Earth. While a tree on Earth may only need oxygen and sunshine to thrive, trees on an alien planet may need something entirely different.

Such is the case for the large tree in New Atlantis that Kelton Frush has been studying. His studies lead you to the conclusion of this chain of quests in New Atlantis: Late Bloomer. This time, your job is to find the tree a mate.

How To Start The Late Bloomer Quest

After finishingOut On A Limb, you must wait 24 in-game hours, thencome back to Kelton to start the next quest.

He has learned what it all means; the liquefying and vibrating is because thetree is trying to reproduce! The tree is sending out vibrations,looking for another tree to return its call.

Without a response, however, the vibrations will only increase in strength and frequency,which could be dangerous to itself and everyone else in New Atlantis.

Your job is to go to theCoe Heritage Museum on Akilato get the branch from a tree that’s just as old as this one.

Should you fail the persuasion,you can also sneak behind her in Stealth modeand steal the branch from the safe.

The safe is locked with aMaster level lock, so unless you have yourSecurity skill maxed out, persuasion will be your best option.Make sure to save before talking to Leah so you’re able to reload if necessary.

Listen to him talk for a bit, then he tells you he was able to obtain an adequate response from the branch.It just needs to be played.
