Lead Up To The Choice
Click to enlargeDying Light 2's The Raid quest is a main story mission, so it will automatically be activated after you finish The Arrival beforehand. It directs you to meet Sophie on a rooftop nearby to a large bandit camp where she discusses the plan to liberate the camp from Jack and Joe (the brotherly bandits) and free Carl. You'll meet with Aitor secretly afterwards, and he'll ask you to keep him updated at all times.
The majority of the quest is rather linear, and you'll eventually take over the bandit camp to create a new safe zone and free Carl. After rescuing him, he will direct you to go meet Sophie at the Tango Motel, which is her hideout in this region of the map. As you approach, Hakon will contact you via radio and try to convince you to go meet Aitor instead, and as you reach the door of the motel the choice sequence will begin.
Your two options are to go meet Aitor back at the Metro Station, or go into the Tango Motel for the next phase of the plan with Sophie to liberate the Water Tower. Your choice will completely lock off the option to do the other, and Dying Light 2 has no manual saving, so it can be annoying if you want to revert your choice.

Meet Aitor
Click to enlargeIf you choose the option to meet Aitor, you will have to travel back toward the Metro Station in Quarry End. Aitor will inform you that Jack and Joe have left the Water Tower, and asks you to sneak in to defuse the charges inside and take it over for the Peacemakers. He believes it will give them leverage against the Survivors in the Bazaar to find out who killed Commander Lucas. Once the conversation with Aitor is over, the quest will be finished. It will also begin the following quest, called Water Tower.

Meet Sophie
Click to enlargeIf you decide to go after Sophie instead in the Dying Light 2 The Raid quest, you will enter the Tango Motel and find dead Survivors and Peacekeepers.

The Survivors turn on you as you are revealed to be working for the Peacekeepers, and you must fight your way through them all. However, you will then be forced to fight and kill Hermann, Sophie's deaf family bodyguard. Eventually, you'll lose both Barney and Sophie, and must report back to Aitor at the Metro Station, before beginning the Dying Light 2 Water Tower quest.
