After speaking with Nimbus, the quest will be complete and the Unfinished Business Exotic Quest will begin.
Lightfall Quest Rewards
During the events of the Lightfall quest, you will be able to obtain a lot of Neomuna Rank, which should get you a lot of reputation after it has ended.
You will encounter several missions that have chests at certain parts that will reward you with Glimmer, gear, and more.
At the end of the Lightfall quest, you will be able to use the Strand Subclass, which later can be upgraded by purchasing aspects and fragments.
