You meet Anna. Speak with her - your wife will give you a few side quests related to slaves. Do them if you want to have a good ending in this chapter. Go back to the Aurora after you have done the side missions (or if you decided to skip them). You have a new objective - go with Damir to get some water. Replenish your supplies before you move out - you will face multiple enemies. Also, don't forget the gas mask filters.

You have to get to the northern part of the map - you can drive there in a UAZ. There, you will meet Damir - he is waiting for you near a campfire. Follow him to the cave. The path is rather linear - the only problem here are mutants attacking you from time to time. Keep following Damir. You come across slaves - Damir suggests you a stealth approach. Decide how you want to complete this part - your choice will determine the chapter's ending and Damir's fate.
Offensive approach

Reach the lever, the one near the closed gate - the lever is on the upper floor. Interact with it to open the gate and escape with Damir.
Stealth approach
Upon entering the Baron's fortress, you will encounter a large group of enemies. The majority of them is standing with their backs turned towards you - use this opportunity to eliminate them.
