How to start the Aqueuse serious quest
First and foremost, you will have to become a member of the black fraternity by completing the quest for a knife in the darkness that we describe in our guide How to Rewing. By killing an innocent and ending this associated quest for registration, you will be invited to the sanctuary of their fraternity, capable of concluding contracts to track down various targets.

After joining, you will want to search for vicente Valdieri which can be found inside the Sanctuary of the brotherhood in Cheydinhal. You will access it via the abandoned basement which can be found inside the Abandoned house.
After entering a disturbing door, he will be at the other end. The images below show Cheydinhal cards, and in the sanctuary of the black fraternity of the region, with more details in the legend.


Once you have found a vicent, talk to him and choose the “contract” option and he will give you an overview of the first black fraternity contract so that you can finish.

This first mission will make you track down and assassinate the captain of a ship in the imperial city.
As Vicente mentions, do not hesitate to speak to some of the other members while you are in their sanctuary because they have practical advice which could help in various ways of approaching. We will pass some of these in the next section.


Whenever you are ready, travel to the bank district in the imperial city.

Where to find the location of Marie Elena explained and how to enter
You will undoubtedly have seen Marie Elena's ship if you have crossed the seafront district in the past.
Keeped by the pirate patrol, it is your work to sneak in the ship without being seen, eliminating Captain Gaston Tussaud.

There are some options at your disposal for how to enter, and you are free to try your own approaches, using a backup backup to try new methods. Whatever choice, it is better to wait until night.
However, if you talked to the members of the Fraternity – like Vicente, Antoinetta or Teinava – before leaving, you can use the information provided by them to have the upper hand.
The path I followed was to follow the Vicente note on the Balcony in the stern of the ship. If you go backwards, you can see the balcony – you can jump the gap and find a locked door that you can pierce with a locking. However, it is classified as very difficult, so it is sort of a Finnicky option.
Taking this path, however, will take you directly to the captain's neighborhoods where your target is located.


Alternatively, while you move on the path near patrollers, you will notice a box with an prompt which will seem to call the recommendation of vicente to hide inside.
Adopting this approach will rather charge you on the ship in the lower bridge of Marie Elena, and you will have to make your way through the ship to the districts of the captain. Along the way, you will have to hide from hackers, patient when they finish conversations, and more.
It is more difficult than the Lockpick solution, but allows you to avoid the locking of a door which – certainly – is an attractive solution!


However, whether you take these suggested routes or your own approach, your goal remains the same and you will have to bolt once the captain is eliminated to avoid getting caught.
Where to find Captain Gaston TUSSAUD Location explained
Once you are on the ship, Gaston Tussaud will be located in the captain's neighborhoods. We entered the night of the night and found him sleeping, but you are free to choose another period of the day.

This location can be more or less embarrassing depending on where you have entered, but forcing you to keep stealth at the front of your mind, to win a sneaky attack multiplied by damage and to defeat it should not be too difficult.
Since we described two approaches in the previous section, here are some explanators for these recommended approaches.
Via the soup balcony door (fast road)
The most challenge for this option comes with your needs to have to choose a very difficult lock of difficulty.
Otherwise, it is relatively simple beyond that since you enter exactly where you should be. Simply enter the room in which the captain sleeps and run a sneaky attack – and other monitoring movements – until he broke.
Once he is dead, simply turn around the way you have entered and the pirates will not be wiser when it comes to your presicish, although they are investigating just after the captain dies, so make sure to make a quick exit.
Pass Enbout on the ship via the cargo (Longer Road)
Adopting this approach is generally more difficult, because you must make your way through the lower bridges of the ship and to the place where the captain's districts are located. As I will enter shortly, it might be better to keep a backup backup before entering the ship, just in case too.
The route itself consists in avoiding hackers, staying hidden and sneaking without being detected, which is mainly difficult due to closed spaces.

That said, it is a fairly linear path, and therefore apart from enemies in the average bridge, obtaining where you have to go should not be too difficult.


The reason why I suggested keeping a backup backup before trying this path is that, unless you can find a way to distract them both, you could meet a situation like me – while one of the pirates walked away to sleep in the corridor, the other remained stationary outside the Captain's neighborhoods and did not seem to be moving.
Due to their presence, it also means that you cannot wait or sleep here to see if it corrects something.

According to other online reports, the suggestion is that these hackers are supposed to move, but that did not happen for me, and therefore in this spirit, the only option I had was to kill the two pirates, then to move to the Captain's neighborhoods.
It seems that this approach has worked well, but it is not ideal. However, it is worth keeping this in mind if you end up encountering the same problem. Do not hesitate to try other bypass solutions, such as recharging savings, accelerated backups and again, etc. To see if something changes.

Anyway, once you have crossed and in the captain's neighborhoods, you can do a quick job of him and be out – be sure to loot his body for the Captain's keywhich allows you to go out through the door of the balcony in the neighboring room, where you can escape with little or no problem.

Once you escape, keep yourself away from the region and return to the sanctuary of black fraternity in Cheydinhal.
How to complete an aqueous tomb and receive your reward
Once you are back safely in the sanctuary of the Black Fraternity, find Vicente Valdieri and report to him with the “Contract” option.
He will congratulate you for work and reward you with the Black band Ring which provides three points to your light armor, your safety and your magic statistics.

Once you have finished this quest, you can then go to the next one, accidents occur, which you will also receive vicente.
