The Atlas Path

What does the Atlas Path give? At its last Atlas Interface you choose: birth a new star and receive the Star Seed, or walk away and receive the Mark of the Denier, both exosuit modules. The way there is 11 parts, from one Atlas Station to the next.

How it starts

The path opens after The Space Anomaly, the first mission aboard the Anomaly: its first step is to locate an Atlas Interface.

The steps

Each part is one entry of the log, and the next opens when it ends: locate the next Atlas Station, explore the universe, and return to its interface, station after station. The last part is Atlas Eternal, which asks for a wonder to show the Atlas after you birth a star. The table gives every step as the log names it, with the hint the game shows under it; the choice at the last interface is one row, its options as A and B, each with what it gives.

Every step in the order the log shows it, with the hint under it; a choice gives an item by its option.

What the items do

The modules the choice gives, with the description the game gives each.

Item	What it does
Star Seed	The smallest of sparks, housed within a containment field of unknown origins.
Mark of the Denier	A tiny mote of stardust, no more than a speck. On closer examination, its surface is all crystalline shards and distorted crimson geometry.

Every item the quest gives, in the order it comes, with the game's own description.

What each adds to the exosuit is in the exosuit modules guide; the story the Atlas runs beside is The Artemis Path.
