[Spoilers for Zubmariner]

After completing either side of the quest in Hideaway, the Sprightly Visionary (Arik) requests that you unmask the Governor of Wisdom (wiki link), and order him to report to Hideaway. However, I don't see any associated storylet associated with this request at Wisdom (or the three Khanate ports, or even Visage).

My only idea is that there has always been a storylet at Widom to get an audience with the Governor in order to ransom a prisoner (wiki link). You need a Searing Enigma and Pages 175. Now before I undergo the extremely annoying task of raising Pages to 175, I'd like to know: is this actually the way to advance 'The Sprightly Visionary's Request'? Or have I completely missed some other obvious way to advance the quest?

I've done some poking around in the game files and found the issue. There should be two options at Wisdom - one to convey the message and one to reject it. Both options are unlocked with The Sprightly Visionary's Request 1. The issue is that receiving the request sets that quality to 2 for Hideaway: Together and to 3 for Hideaway: Alone. (There's an option to recieve the request in regular Hideaway which sets the quality to 1; this is only possible if you murder the Investigator.) As I sided with Arik, when I just checked my qualities it listed The Sprightly Visionary's Request at 2, indicating I had rejected it.

In other words a patch will fix this issue for future captains but the only way to fix it for a captain who's already completed the story is to edit your save. If you want to do so, search for quality 126177 in the save file and set it to 1. See the spoiler, where I've highlighted where the code shows the current value and the quality ID.

{"Name":null,"EquippedPossession":null,"Relationships":[],"XP":0,"EffectiveLevelModifier":0,"TargetQuality":null,"TargetLevel":null,"CompletionMessage":null,"Level":1,"AssociatedQuality":null,"AssociatedQualityId":126177,"QualityName":null,"QualityDescription":null,"QualityImage":null,"QualityNature":null,"QualityCategory":null,"QualityAllowedOn":null,"Id":0}

The two options to meet the Governor and ransom a prisoner (for a Searing Enigma or echoes) are unrelated. There should be an option specifically to unmask the governor. There were some issues with that option during the beta, so if it isn't visible you should contact support.

Done. Thanks for saving me the trouble of getting Pages up to 175, only to be met with disappointment!
