As you proceed with the mission, you are asked to inquire about the Clear Sky in two different places: Skadovsk and Shevchenko. You can visit either of the two places to start the mission, but it is recommended to visit Skadovsk as it is located close to where you finish the Like a Moth to the Flame quest. Once you reach the location, head toward Sonya Kalyna and speak with her.
After your conversation with Sonya, you will notice Richter. Talk to him and ask about the Clear Sky. Once the discussion is over, a new task will be updated on your map, prompting you to learn about Nimble's whereabouts from Trapper, who is located south of Skadovsk.

When you reach the location, you will find Trapper looking through binoculars. Interacting with him will pop two choices: “I’m looking for Nimble” and “What are you hunting?”. Now, to quickly conclude In Search of a Guide mission, simply opt for the former option.
After a brief conversation, another option will appear: “Give me the coordinates to the cave” and “What kind of job were you doing?”. Choose the first option. A new optional objective will begin, where Trapper will ask your help to kill mutants. Make sure to be well-equipped with good weapons, as numerous mutants could give you lethal damage.

Once this task is completed, you will receive the location of Nimble, who is at the Snork Cave. As you are inside the cave, you will encounter Nimble, and a cutscene will play where Numble asks you to start running. During the cutscene, numerous enemies will appear and respawn.
At the end of the cutscene, you will be given two options: "[Spare Nimble’s life] You’re a fool, Nimble" and "[Kill Nimble] That’s no excuse". If you choose the first option, a short dialogue will appear and again you will be given three more options: “Where’s Clear Sky?”, “Tell me about Faust”, and "Tell me about Clear Sky."
Selecting any of them will conclude the In Search of a Guide mission. However, if you choose the second one, you will have to kill Nimble. Once he is dead, take the PDA and Professor Kalancha's map from his body to finish the mission.
