Enclave Remnants
The Enclave was heavily featured in previous games Fallout 2 and Fallout 3, but the group saw little more than a few passing mentions in the lore of Fallout 4. Players mostly speculated that this was because of the events of the two previous games, where the Enclave had been essentially wiped out. The assumption was that the Enclave no longer had a presence on the East Coast of the United States.
In this new quest, “Echoes of the Past,” can you stop The Enclave from spreading their dangerous ideology and gaining a foothold in the Commonwealth?
Official Bethesda Post
The new Enclave Remnants content, featured in the “Echoes of the Past” quest, suggests that may not be the case, however. How powerful the cabal actually is remains to be seen. But the fact that they are willing to take action and attempt to rise again suggests they could be a force to be reckoned with!
