## Video Walkthrough

*"Go to the village of Österhällan."*

**Father and Son** is a side mission on the DLC island Himfjäll in Generation Zero.

*Before he became the successful singer and frontman of Barb Rose and moved to Stockholm in the early 70s, Benny was born and raised on Himfjäll, more specifically in Österhällan, a village nested between mountain and sea, just opposite the small island of Djupskäret. But he and his father, Eduardo, had fallen out in recent years, leading to Benny's visits being further and further apart.

Two months before the Cataclysm, Benny started writing a letter to his father, and kept carrying it around with him, but never finished nor sent it before it was too late. Wrought with guilt and worry, he has been eager to cross the enemy lines to go back to where he grew up, and find his father at last.*

## **Walkthrough**

* Go to the village of Österhällan
* Locate Benny's father's house in Österhällan
* Find a way to get into Benny's father's house
(It's possible to open the front door, but the entrance is impassible due to a barricade on the inside. The backdoor of the house is bashed in, allowing space to crouch under some boards and enter the house)
* Search the house for clues about Benny's father.
(Pick up **Young Benny's letter to his father** in the far back right room, first floor.)

## **Mission Items**

*Spare key to Eduardo's house*

Benny's spare key to his childhood home. Although it had been over 20 years since he moved out, his gather Eduardo always insisted that Benny should keep a spare key, "just in case"..."After all, it's still your home, Benny".

*Benny's unfinished letter to his father*

Benny started writing this letter on September 18th, 1989, almost two months before the machine invasion. Several sentences were never finished.

"Papá,
Hope things are good with you. How are things back in good old Österhällan? It's hunting season now, right? Guess it's still the same old gang as before, everyone meeting up at 5 am at your place on Sundays and all... Some things don't change, and they shouldn't. Remember when -- [unfinished]

On my side, as you know, no change on the music front. On the plus side, I might be on TV in January for a celebrity show with -- [unfinished]

 Actually, I'll be at Björntunet again towards the end of October, and this time I might stay for a few weeks. I was thinking that maybe -- [unfinished]

Rock on!
Benny"

*Young Benny's letter to his father*

This is the same handwriting as the other letter, but the paper shows some signs of wear and tear. The letter was sent on May 23rd 1969.

"Papá,
Happy Birthday! I kind of miss my old room, the house, the view over to Djupskäret - but wow, so much has happened in just a couple of weeks! We might be able to find a manager, and if things work out, he wants us to record an EP.

Oh, and we're going to go on a tour in Germany! Hamburg, Frankfurt, Berlin, and a couple of others. Rock on! See, Papá, all those hours playing that "damn guitar" weren't in vain after all. You were always saying you'd sound-proof my room because you couldn't stand the noise, but you never did.

Lasse's been working on our logo. Roses are boring, if you ask me. Anyway, gotta go. I'll visit soon, I promise.

Rock on!
Your Benny"
