The Waverider

The Waverider is a solo-only side Quest, released in Update 30.5 (2021-07-06). The Tenno are tasked with unlocking a comic Graphica featuring , a Warframe that originated K-Driving and inspired the Ventkids. 
==Synopsis==
Roky finds a comic Graphica called Waverider #1, featuring who inspired K-Driving, but is fatally injured trying to unlock it. Boon implores the Tenno to unlock it in her stead. As they unravel the Graphica's pages, which depict Yareli fighting against a slave-driver named Vulgran, Nef Anyo reveals that he brokered a deal with Roky to release the Ventkids debt to him in exchange for the completed Graphica for a buyer he has on Deimos.
The Tenno complete the Graphica, but Nef Anyo claims the buyer no longer wants the Graphica and is now useless to him. Boon discovered that the buyer was Grandmother who received the completed Graphica from the Ventkids in exchange for an elixir to heal Roky. She also bought out the vents where they live, removing their debts to Nef Anyo. Grandmother reveals to the Tenno that a blueprint of Yareli was hidden inside the Waverider #1 Graphica.
==Walkthrough==
This quest can be accessed directly from the Codex, after completing the Vox Solaris and being Mastery Rank 3.
===View Roky's Inbox Message===
After starting the quest, the player will receive another inbox message from Roky, informing them about , the original inspiration for K-Driving, and had found something. She urges them to meet her in Fortuna.
===Visit Roky in Fortuna===
Upon arrival, the Tenno find Roky lying down and Boon beside her with the prompt "What happened?". He explains that they found Roky in comatose having broken her neuro-conduit and on her possession was a Graphica dubbed Waverider #1, featuring a comic illustration of Yareli, but it is locked and believes Roky injured herself trying to unravel its secrets. Knowing there is zero chance Nef Anyo's augmentors will repair Roky, Boon only hopes that she will awaken on her own, explaining that when he was injured in the past Roky would stay by his side and tell him stories of Yareli, and urges the Tenno to unlock the Graphica so he can give Roky a story to return to.

Nef Anyo grows impatient and demands the completed Graphica. However, Boon invites the Tenno to return to the Ventkids.
===Return to Fortuna===
Nef Anyo suddenly calls off the deal, claiming the buyer was spooked and the Graphica is now worthless to him. Instead, the buyer agreed to purchase the ventilation shafts where the Ventkids live in.
In the vents, Roky awakens, with the prompt "Roky's awake!" While she was asleep, she dreamed of Yareli riding with her all across the Orb Vallis. Boon fills her in on the completed Graphica, revealing that he found out the Deimos buyer is Grandmother, who received the Graphica from the Ventkids in exchange for an elixir to heal Roky and bought out their home which effectively removes all their debts.
Back on the Orbiter, Grandmother sends an inbox message to the Tenno. She expresses disappointment at Nef Anyo's greed, but required the Graphica to revive Yareli. She delivers the blueprint for the Warframe, Noggle Statue - Yareli, K-Drive Booster, and Yareli Prex Orbiter Decorations. The Tenno will also keep the Waverider #1 which can also be used as an Orbiter Decoration.
