Sepator died

When I arrived at the rookie village at one point, I saw a huge blue explosion by the house closest to the graveyard. When I went over there, Sepator and Corn were in the process of "taking a bath" in the anomaly in the broken corner of the hose and soon perished.

Question is, will this affect the game at some future point? I have already turned in the parts to Zahar and got the reward also for keeping Sepator alive up to that point.

Unfortunately that anomaly often claims the lives of hunters who seem to be attracted to that corner. You'd think they would know about it by now. Fortunately you don't need Sepator anymore once Zahar's mission is complete.

If you feel sentimental, you could try to resurrect him. (Make a save before trying this, as for some reason the first attempt usually crashes the game. If this happens, reload and try again and it will often work. Not always, though... sometimes a corpse just can't be resurrected.) You will need to drag his body clear of the anomaly first, or he will just die again. The

Spoiler:

makes this much easier if you have it! When the body is clear of danger, target it so you get the "Use" prompt, then type [ESC] and then [R].

That's great, thanks for the tip to resurrect (may come in handy at some point) but as long as he's not essential to the plot any longer I'm actually in favor of "letting the Zone take its due course"!

Before using Esc+R, I find it helps keep the returned NPCs from dying quickly if their bodies are equipped with with a firearm, plus a couple of clicks of ammo, medkit, bandage, antirad, food and drink. In one area in Levelup 1, returned NPCs have later successfully gone into action, so equipping them does seem to help.
