Free Labor

 is a Fallout 3 quest and achievement that is added to the game in The Pitt DLC pack.

WARNING: SPOILERS!!

This Quest Starts by fighting your way through The Hole and Winning. As soon as you leave The Hole you are told you are free, and to go speak to Ashur in UpTown. Then you are able to retrieve your equipment from the trunk in the middle of the room and head to Ashur. When you speak to Ashur he lies to you and tells you there is no cure. He asks you to kill Werhner because he's been rallying the slaves and a riot would result in meaningless death. Here you can either decide to go and kill Werhner, Kill Ashur or wait until he is called away and investigate Haven for the cure. If you pass a speech you can tell Ashur that you never meet Werhner, and he will tell you about the cure and even ask you to speak with his wife to know more. After that you must decide either join him or refuse his offer.

Siding with Ashur
WARNING: SPOILERS!!

If you choose to leave "The Cure," or kill Werhner (both have no effect on Karma) slaves will be rioting all through the pitt, killing them will cause Karma loss, but since most are equipped with AutoAxe's or Steel Saw's they are easily avoided in small numbers. Now you want to head to Midea where through dialog or a note you learn Werhner is hiding out in the Steel Yard work you way there and head to his hideout which is easily found in the yard. You can either ask Werhner to leave forever in a speech check, or kill him for no Karma loss. Now head back to Ashur who is in his usual spot in the Haven. He will thank you for not taking "The Cure" and reward you by making you a citizen of The Pitt, and access to the Ammo Press.

Siding with Werhner
WARNING: SPOILERS!!

After you stole "The Cure" you will be engaged in combat by Ashur´s wife and every raider in Uptown. After making your way to the exit you will find a riot between Slaves and Raiders. Make your way trough Midea´s house (having the Chinese Stealth suit makes it a lot easier) where she will ask you to show her the cure, and afterwars tell you that Werhner have everything arranged and is waiting for you in his hideout inside in the Steelyard. After you talk with him and hand over the cure (and being treated like a poor bastard) he will tell you that in order to finish your mission you must find the "Floodlight control" and shutdown the floodlights of the Uptown that are preventing the Trogs to raid it in. When you finish you will exit just in the entrance to the haven´s yard where you will be confronted by Ashur who is later attacked by Trogs. You can kill Ashur and loot his body or leave him to his fate, wich randomly dies by Trogs or survive the encounter and you cannot speak to him. If you kill Ashur and return to Midea´s house you will find Werhner outside who tells you that he will be reorganizing the city and that you spread the word out of The Pitt in order to get more workers down in the Mill. He also tells you that you earned your cache of the Ammo Press, and that if you want you can gather Steel Ingots and give them to the foreman in exchange of gear (works same as Everett) and in adittion Werhner and Midea tells you that "The Cure" is very handful and ask you to bring them Teddy Bears and pays you 30 caps each (no speech or barter included).
