Objectives:

- Locate the Fault
- Reach the Oldest House Fault
- Complete the Ritual
Meet Zoe at Executive Research in the Oldest House
Make your way back to the Oldest House to meet with Zoe. You’ll need to go into the elevator in the lobby above where Pope normally stands to get back inside.
When you reach the large room after the elevator you will be attacked by a large group of Hiss, defeat them to progress.
When they are defeated, go through the elevator on the south lower floor toward Executive Research.
Continue through the area and you can speak with Zoe at the Prime Candidate Testing door.
Locate the Fault
Follow the path ahead and in the room with the video, go to the Main Observation door and interact with Zoe to have her open it.
Reach the Oldest House Fault
At this point you’ll need to have completed Jesse Sightings: The Underpass Fault if you haven’t already, as it is required to be complete to progress this mission.
Speak with Zoe, then continue along the path. You will first need to go through the door to Classrooms.
In the next main room you need to move Charges around to power the area. First, on the east side of the room, grab the Charge from the power core and move it up to the south side of the room, where you can charge the core that opens the door.
Go inside and hit one of the cores, you’ll then be locked in the room. To get out, you need to look at the white screens on the sides that show the pattern you must replicate with the cores on the wall. When you activate the wall cores in this correct pattern the screens will change to the next pattern to replicate. There are 3 patterns total that must be solved to open the door.
For the first pattern, take the Charges from the side of the room, activate the cores on the wall in an inverted triangle (top left, top right, and middle bottom).
For the second pattern move the charges to make a square, meaning one in each of the 4 corners.
For the third pattern make a cross shape, so the entire middle row, and middle top and bottom.
After this the door on the room will unlock again, and you can take two charges back to the room where Zoe is now standing to power up the area.
Once the power is back on you can go into the High Risk Chamber door on the west side of the room. Make sure to grab the Power Upgrade crate in the room just beside the unmarked room on the way by.
When you reach the large room, go over and speak with Zoe at the door labelled Director Training.
In the next room you will be attacked by more Hiss, defeat them to progress.
After they are dealt with, go through the door to the north to the Main Test Chamber.
Enter the room and interact with the TV to enter the Fault.
Complete the Ritual
Follow the platforming path until you reach Jesse.
After speaking with her turn to the right where there is a TV to interact with to progress.
Continue following the platforming path, in this section watch out as some surfaces will break when you approach them, revealing different paths. When you reach Jesse, interact with her to complete the mission.
This finishes The House in Distress in Control Resonant.
