Rescue Initiate from the Hub

Rescue Initiate from the Hub is a side quest in Fallout.

Detailed walkthrough
Brother Jonathan, an initiate from the Brotherhood of Steel, has gotten himself captured in the Hub by Decker, and is imprisoned in Old Town. He's located in a building directly to the right of Old Town entry point, guarded by several rough guards who carry the equivalent of a platoon's worth of firepower. They will shoot on sight and can easily take out a low-level character with minimal effort.

There are a total of four guards inside, one of which carries a combat shotgun. The guards can either be attacked through the front door of the house or shot at through a window on the northern wall of the building.

The initiate is held behind a locked door, which must be lockpicked, in the rear of the building, protecting him from friendly fire. After the initiate is spoken to, return to Lost Hills and speak with Talus to be rewarded.
