The second chapter of Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, titled Felons, drops Sophia and her companion Leni into a night-time heist during a city carnival. You slip through canals, disguise yourselves in the crowd, scale a church, and signal your crew, only to learn that the whole job was a setup. By the end you retrieve a hidden chest and flee the burning docks by boat.
Quick answer: Regroup with the crew, open the canal gate, don a carnival mask to reach the church, signal with the mirror on the roof, survive the ambush at the arsenal, open the chest for Alec’s Pendant, then escape across the collapsing docks to Leni’s sailboat.
Chapter 2: Felons objectives in order
The chapter tracks a fixed list of objectives on screen. Following them in sequence keeps you on the critical path from the canal entrance to the final escape.
The chapter opens with Faro laying out the plan on a city map, marking the carnival, the routes, and the church. Watch the briefing to learn where the crew will strike while you handle the infiltration.

Ride the canal by gondola with Leni. The pair talk about Faro and Sophia’s father during the trip. When you dock, disembark and climb onto the rooftops.
Sneak past the guards along the roofline. When you drop into the courtyard, you are forced into a fight against several guards. Clear them out to continue.
With the courtyard clear, move to the gate mechanism. Sophia and Leni each pull a lever to raise the canal gate so the rest of the crew can bring their boats into the city.

Once the gate is open, grab masks from a nearby barrel. Wearing them lets you and Leni blend into the carnival crowd instead of being spotted as intruders.
Partway through, guards demand that you remove your masks. That closes the direct route, so cut through a back alley to bypass the checkpoint and keep heading for the church.

From the rooftop you overlook the city. Hold R1 to raise the mirror, then aim it at the signal points. Reflecting the light alerts the crew and triggers an explosion below.

After the signal, cross the rooftops to leave the carnival. During the descent it becomes clear the heist was a trap, which pushes you straight toward the arsenal to help your crew.
Push onto the docks and fight through the remaining guards to reach the chest.
