Introduction:
Fallout 76 has a fair share of quests some of which even need to be replayed in order to experience all the different scenarios. Other quests are dailies and events. Among all of them some are considered to be critically acclaimed by the community and we will be delving into the most interesting quest called the Mistress of Mystery. This quest is part of the Faction quests for the Order of Mysteries and is the last quest of the entire chain. The questline can be activated upon discovering the dead corpse of a young women on whom we find a damaged Holotape and a Worn Veil belonging to the Order of Mysteries. The corpse is part of randomly encountered events and can be found at various locations across Appalachia.
The Mission
After successfully completing Seeker of Mysteries the player is finally able to access the Headmistress’ office. It’s finally time for some clarity on this whole mess of events that occurred. Going back to a cryptos terminal you will finally get to access it as Olivia and authorize access to the Headmistress’ office. A hand scan terminal outside the office grants the player access to her cabin and upon accessing the terminal and reading the message sent by Olivia we finally find out that she came across members of the order gossiping about how they knew they were suspicious about her. She confesses to killing them and how she then wanted to get rid of the entire order, with a final message to her mother suggesting that meet at the usual spot they used to meet on the day of her birthday.
The Final Events:
At this point you will unlock the optional quest to search for clues regarding the meeting place, which can be found on Olivia’s terminal using her credentials. A new location marker appears on the map just north of your current location known as Seneca Rocks. Once you reach the place you will find the dead bodies of Olivia and her mother, the headmistress Shannon Rivers. Upon interacting with them you find the Holotape that has the recording of the final moments between the two of them. You can initially hear Shannon requesting disclosure and her daughter explaining how she was tired of the way they were operating. Olivia ends up killing her mother with the help of Brody, a raider who was assigned the task of doing away with the entire order. At the end he betrays Olivia finally putting an end to the entire Order of Mysteries.
Conclusion:
Now if we go back to the cryptos terminal we can finally login as Headmistress Shannon Rivers. You can access a few new things and promote yourself to the rank of Mistress of Mystery. The Holotape that you receive has an entry of Shannon delivering her final message, welcoming you as a full fledged member of the Order and briefly describing her reasons for the order. Apparently she had high hopes for Olivia and could not stand what her daughter had turned into at the end.
