The Investigation

The Investigation or The Boneyard is one of the Logos quests in The Long Journey Home.

Description
The Logos Antaeusus intercepts the player and reports about a Raxact, who repeatedly visits a nearby asteroid belt. Since the Logos would attract too much attention, the player is asked to investigate this case. If the player accepts, Antaeusus will ask the player to give whatever findings he will get to any other Logos.

At the asteroid field, the player has to collect three pieces of evidence. They are all pretty close to each other and the tiniest one is indicated by an arrow. Some of your crew members can investigate the items. If your crew is unable to get all the clues, you can show the pieces of evidence to aliens to get further information.

The pieces of evidence are:

The pieces of evidence can be returned to a Logos individually. If the player did not find a clue connected to a piece of evidence, the Logos will ask, whether the player doesn't want to investigate further instead. In some seeds it is not possible to find all the clues, so you can end the quest that way. With all the clues you get approximately 380 and the Logos respect increases. The Logos realizes that the Raxact are hunting space whales and orders his brother Draco to hunt them down and confiscate the blessed ambergris. If one or two clues are missing, the player will receive a medium reward and the Logos respect increases. If no clue is found, the player will receive a small reward.

If you decide not to help, the Logos respect will be increased, since you stay out of Raxact business. The Logos decide to just blow up the asteroid belt including the Raxact ship.

Trivia
While the quest giver is called "Antaeusus", the Logos refer to him as "Draco" later on during the quest.
