There is a Storm Gate somewhere in East Gate. The Freelancer is tasked to enter it and stop anything inside it from coming out into Bastion.
Hints and Suggestions
- The dialog exchange between the characters will change depending on whether single player or multiplayer mode is played.
- Remember to perform Feats to obtain XP for increasing Pilot Level and receiving Alliance bonus.
- This particular expedition may have a video walkthrough after the Cortex Entry section for documentation.
- The Conjunction is a respawn restricted area. If a Freelancer is downed, they need to be revived by allies, otherwise, if they force respawn, they will be thrown out of the conjunction and back into Freeplay.
- This Conjunction has 3 tiers. At the completion of each tier, a Treasure Chest will be unlocked.
- There are enough Legendary Enemies in this conjunction to receive the gold Legendary Slayer Feat.
- Since this is a Shaper Structure based location, there are several Shaper Nodes around that can zap javelin thrusters and prevent flight.
- See individual pages for enemies in the Encounters section for details on how to combat with them.
- Crystal structures are tough to destroy. The smaller crystal projections on the structures must be destroyed to completely break the larger crystal. Multi-Target damage dealing weapons (for example, Jarra's Wrath) or Blast Damage dealing weapons or gears are the most effective, as time is limited.
- Bristleback is one of the toughest enemies in Anthem. All Bristlebacks are Legendary Enemies. Look into the strategy section of its page to see how to combat this enemy.

Trivia (May Contain Spoilers)
- This conjunction also used to give crystal rewards in the treasure chests during the original run of Echoes of Reality in 2019. When the Cataclysm ended, the crystal rewards stopped unless they are a part of daily challenges.
- This conjunction takes place in a Hidden Place anomaly called Silent Path Anomaly.
- This Conjunction has 3 tiers.
- The conversation during this conjunction is taken from a pool of dialogs.
- During the original run of Echoes of Reality, a large crystal mound would appear under the storm gate and crystals would grow around it. These crystals could be harvested.
- Although Faye says that the Bristleback is a Brute chimera, it is an Ursix chimera. This fact is known from a Cortex entry on it through the weapon Shard Storm.
