Get another article from Nova | Day 3 Alpha Polaris Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Before you leave the station, you need to read a second article on ancient tribes living in these areas. Therefore go to the lab where Nova was heading and try to talk with her about. But with no success.

So go the garage where you can find depressed Tully. Talk to him - also about an article. Tully will suggest breaking into the girl's room and give Rune a blank key. Now you just have to make your own master copy.

Go to the corridor with residential rooms. Take a closer look at the bulletin board on the right, and particularly at three station keys hanging at the top of it. As Tully said all rooms in the station have very similar locks. So you have to find a common element for all three keys.

Note that one pin is located in the same place on all keys. Just count all pins (also missing ones) starting from the top in order to get the correct one.

Now use you multitool on the blank key - there is also a knife there which you need now. Just break out all pins except fifth which is common for all station keys. You will get a cut station key. If you make a mistake during the process just go to Tully to get another blank key, until you make a correct one.

Use your new crafted key to open Nova's room and go inside. Look at the trunk standing next to the closet. It turns out that it is locked with a padlock with four digit combination lock. You have just to guess the correct one.

You can easily assume that Nova, like most people, used her date of birth as a combination. So you have to find it somehow. Again, the bulletin board comes with help. Investigate a postcard in the left upper corner of a board - there are birthday wishes for a girl. Note a date on a stamp (02/08/2011) and fact that content of a card shows that Nova's birthday is next day. You must also remember that the date on stamp is in format month-day-year.

Return to Nova's room and take a look at the trunk's padlock. A postcard was sent on the 8th of February, so her birthday is on 9th of February. So click on the lock and set a combination to 0-2-0-9. Now you can open a padlock.

There is an article in the center of a suitcase. Take it. Now you can prepare to leave the station.
