Short Stories

Short Stories is a quest in Fallout 4.

Quick walkthrough

 * 1) Talk to Katy (the Teacher) in Vault 81
 * 2) Go to the classroom in Vault 81
 * 3) Tell the children a story

Detailed walkthrough
You have to talk to Katy, and she will ask you to tell the children a story about the Commonwealth. You will need to wait for the next class to start (around 9AM) unless there is one already in session. When the class starts, you have to talk to Katy again and confirm that you're ready (if asked, Katy will say to stay away from overly-violent topics, but it does not seem to change the reward you receive). Instantly, one of the children will ask you if you've ever fought a deathclaw. From here, you can tell the straight truth about the deathclaw in Concord, say you fought it off with three shots from a pistol, or redirect the conversation elsewhere. At the end of the story, the children will thank you and you shall receive a Grognak the Barbarian comic.

 * This quest will become stuck if you have failed the Hole in the Wall quest, it can be forced to progress by using the console command "setstage VT81_04 200".

School starts at 9 AM. Save Austin first.
