Cyprian Io

After talking to Derek Chinara, go to a nearby tradepost and fast travel to Arrakeen. Cyprian Io is located on the top floor of the Salusan Bull, where you will talk about you and Derek being tricked.

Cyprian Io reveals the ploy was to lure you away so Derek could be taken out by a group of mercenaries. After the conversation, the first objective will be cleared.
