How to Increase Companion Affinity

Sarah will ask for your help in uncovering the fate of a ship she once commanded. Head to New Atlantis and find Admiral Logan inside the Central Command of the MAST building.
After speaking with him, he’ll provide you with the coordinates of the crash site on Cassiopeia I.

Set a course for Cassiopeia I in the Eta Cassiopeia System and land at the marked crash site.
From there, head toward the location of Sarah’s old campsite - the place she sheltered before being rescued by the UC.

Sarah once used an Emergency Power Cell to set up a rescue beacon. That same beacon, located on a nearby plateau, can now be salvaged to power the ship’s systems.
Climb to the plateau, recover the power cell, and return to the crashed ship module beside the campsite. Install the cell to restore power, then access the onboard computer to review the Telemetry Data.

You have discovered the location of the other shuttle that has crashed along with Sarah. Proceed to the other crash site by traveling with your ship.
Continue following the path through the lush forest until you discover a treehouse made from salvaged ship parts.

Inside the treehouse, you'll encounter Sona, a cautious young girl and the sole survivor of the second shuttle crash. During the conversation, you’ll learn she is the daughter of Sarah’s fallen crewmates.
After meeting her, Sarah will ask you to recover her colleagues’ UC Genetags from a nearby graveyard to honor their memory.

Leave the treehouse and head up to the nearby graveyard - a small burial site marking the fallen crew of the UC Dauntless. Locate and collect the nine genetags placed atop the makeshift tombstones.
Once you’ve picked up the nine, be prepared - soon after, a Greater Silverfish will appear. Defeat it and loot its remains to obtain the 10th genetag, completing the set.
These areas can be hostile - keep an eye out for Coralbug Scavengers on the path up and be ready for the Silverfish’s powerful attacks.

When you return to the treehouse, you’ll find Sarah and Sona in a heated discussion about whether Sona should remain on Cassiopeia I or leave with you. Sarah isn't certain what's best and defers to your judgment.
Before speaking with Sona, make a manual save — this allows you to explore both dialogue branches. You can either:

While you let Sona pack her stuff or leave her in the treehouse, Sarah will invite you to talk with her on a nearby outlook. She will express her feelings about you and Sona's decision.

| Bug Warning: Players may encounter a bug where they cannot initiate a conversation with Sona. You will have to finish the Funeral Quest to fix this bug. |
Return the genetags to Admiral Logan back in the MAST in New Atlantis.
If you brought Sona, you can speak to her in The Lodge and initiate her as the newest member of The Constellation.

Escort Sarah into the Colony War Memorial. After paying respects to her fallen colleagues, she invites you to meet her in New Atlantis' waterfall.
In this conversation near the waterfall, you can finish the quest by choosing the Romance or Friendship dialogue options.
