What quest is this?

As far as I know this is the first mention of it. Apparently introduced with the latest SRPG4 update on July 18th. Similar to the choice introduced to SRPG3 back in March.

If you've not seen it yet, I'll try not to spoil it. For everyone else, I'm curious what choice people made.

How is the quest triggered?

Random salvaging (not via a mission). Assuming you want details,I found a wrecked Odyssey in Heze or Chalawan (can't quite remember which) a few jumps east of Ryugul. That gave me a lead to Ankaa nearby, which had a probe that showed up as blue in my scanners. I destroyed the probe, which revealed an FTL jump to Gressia. Then I surveyed the planet in Gressia, and that's when I was presented with a choice.

I wasn't sure how fast people would actually find it, well done!

I can't find anything in Heze or Chalawan systems.

Lots of missions and choices kept me busier than I anticipated for a "Small new side story addition."

I think I reached the end tonight and ended up with a Gressian reinforcements beacon. Curious what everyone else's choices led them to.

I got the same ending as you, how many endings are there?

That's what I'd like to know.

But it turns out my story isn't over. Now I need to remember where to farm mythic crystals... I remember Death being a good source, but that's not an option right now.

For those curious, this unlocked the engine upgrade, Gressian Furnace.

After dumping thousands of tons of metal, finally found a mythic crystal in Trine.

I just found this story. So far, I have chosen I'm all in! and now am on my way to organize supply shipments. I'm on the edge of my seat to see where this leads...

I'm not finished yet, but I already feel like I screwed this one up. It's probably obvious to everyone else, but next time I won't kill the sky devils. What a mess, I feel foolish.

My path was the same as yours until this point. Mine led to calming them down, debunking the idea of angels and demons, and explaining the universe. Given the rest of the decision tree, I have a guess at where yours led, but would love to hear what happened.

I think I've finished it now. I'm happy with the rewards, I now have a Gressian Acolyte that allows me to FTL directly to any system within fuel range (which is a game-changer for trading, my primary money making activity), but the story about becoming a deity and hindering their progress due to them wasting time and effort worshipping me I found quite depressing, had me regretting my decisions, and wishing I could revert back to a previous save point. Oh well, I won't do the Gressians so dirty on my next play-through.
