After escorting a caravan to a member of the VDNKh Commonwealth, Artyom meets a man: Bourbon. In exchange for a hefty amount of cartridges and an assault rifle, Artyom promises to help Bourbon getting through several tunnels. However, Artyom's travels with Bourbon come to a tragic end, when his companion seemingly slips into insanity and dies. Luckily for Artyom, a mysterious stranger arrives; Khan. Helping Khan retrieve Bourbon's equipment, Artyom discovers that Bourbon may have never planned to pay him at all, and probably planned on killing him. After this, Khan and Artyom plan a route to Artyom's ultimate goal, Polis. They first need to gather supplies for traveling through a strange tunnel. Eventually, Artyom reaches a fork in his path. He could keep traveling with Khan, or he could begin traveling with the rest of the people, relying purely on numbers to fend off the tunnel's monsters. Reluctantly, he opts to go with Khan and ends up making the right decision. After making their way through the perilous tunnel, Khan and Artyom reached Kitai Gorod, where they become separated during an attack by an infamous enemy, the Fourth Reich.
