The only houses are in the village you spotted during your descent.

Another message appears in the top left.
SATLINK UPDATE: CURRENT OBJECTIVE.
It appears your current objective has been updated, it points you in the direction of the town nearby.

Start recording if not already doing so.

Head toward current objective, but be wary.

Observe surroundings closely.

Start recording if not already doing so.
Your SATLINK unit automatically records all functions and relays the records to a satellite that then relays the information to the nearest Sovern military structure or ship to then be relayed back to the operation's origin, in this case, Soverus.
Head toward current objective, but be wary.
Observe surroundings closely.
You begin to walk towards your objective, the cold and snow are relentless, causing a cliche vignette of ice to form around your vision.  You continue to look back and forth, remaining completely aware of your surroundings and movement within a ten meter radius.

After a good hour or so, you arrive at the outskirts of town.  The town's people begin to notice you almost immediately, some rush into their homes and some come from other directions, armed with rifles and pistols, presumably local militia or law enforcement.  You keep your weapon ready.  You proceed to enter the town, as its people keep a close watch on you, staring at you almost menacingly.  It appears that the majority of the towns people are Draddi. 
You soon reach about the center of town, where your objective marker points you.
SATLINK UPDATE: CURRENT OBJECTIVE
Your objective has been updated again.  It appears you must find the Fidgen residence.

Speak in the Draddi language and ask for the location of the resistance, even though you already know where, and if no response threaten to call an airstrike.


omfg misread as... you know

ask for the location of the place thingy

You approach an elderly Draddi woman wrapped in an old Eskimo styled parka jacket.  She eyes you with a fearful expression.  "UPUTITE ME NA FIDGEN BORAVKA."
She nods, and points you down the street, "Morate uključiti u tu ulicu. To je treći kuće na desnoj strani." she replies.
Your database automatically translates the words for you, she has told you to go down the street that she is pointing at, it is the third home on the right.

You can try to lie that you are a rebel robot or something.

In any case, go to house.

As swat said, go to the house. However, be somewhat cautious as these aliens are most likely creeping about and preparing to forget your stuff up. And elderly women are evil.

Fair is foul and foul is fair, eh grunter?

Operation:  Jolly Rancher

ho ho ho, green giant

You proceed to walk in the specified direction, keeping your scanners on the surrounding aliens.  You spot the house and approach it and, without knocking, open the door and step inside.  "Hello?" an elderly sounding woman shouts.
From the back of the house, presumably the kitchen, enters a hunched over human woman, who stands around five feet.  You tower almost three feet above her, and she eyes you up and down in shock, obviously surprised by your unannounced entrance.  "HUMAN, IDENTIFY."
"What?  Identify what?"
"HUMAN, IDENTIFY."
"Identify what, I said."
"HUMAN, IDENTIFY OR BE ERADICATED FOR NONCOMPLIANCE."
"Oh, gosh.  My name is Maria Fidgen."
"ACKNOWLEDGED.  PLEASE SPECIFY WHEREABOUTS OF ONE FIDGEN, KARL J."
"Karl?  What business do you have with Karl?"
"FIDGEN, KARL J. IS CURRENTLY WANTED BY THE SOVERUS EMPIRE FOR MULTIPLE FELONIES."
"Oh, my Karl, what could he have done?"
"PLEASE SPECIFY WHEREABOUTS OF ONE FIDGEN, KARL J."
The woman sighs, shaking her head and taking a seat in a chair in the room, which appears to be the living room.  "My Karl ran away years and years ago, when he was only sixteen years old.  He said he was going to Yarka Station and he... he never came back.  Oh, I bet it was those pirates... he always dreamed of being a pirate... it breaks my heart."
"HUMAN, ARE YOU IN NEED OF PHYSICAL ASSISTANCE?  SCANS INDICATE YOUR INTERNAL ORGANS ARE ENTIRELY INTACT."
"Oh, no... it's an expression.  I'm just sad, is all."
"ACKNOWLEDGED." with that you turn to continue your search, placing a hand on the door handle before the woman speaks again.  "Wait."
"Please, if you do find my Karl, tell him that it's time to come home.  Tell him I love him, please, don't let him get hurt."
You scan the woman for an extended period of time, her eyes proceed to water and a tear rolls down the side of her nose, she sucks her lips in as the tear passes over them.
"ACKNOWLEDGED," you reply, as you step out of the home to a small group of men armed with conventional firearms.  All or most of them are Draddian.  One of them speaks, "Vi ste uplašio ljude našeg grada i zaprijetio našu sigurnost. Molim te, idi."
Your database again translates the speech to english.  They say that you threaten their safety and that you must go.

Just walk out.  You shouldn't have more business here.

Also is this the XM-present Soverinian Empire or the conventional one.

This takes place in IT canon, so conventional.  (Hence the current year)
