Something is really borked with yours, as there is no code like that in my game.
Also there is no file path "a8/3tavern_fest.rpy" in my game.
I'm curious what it looks like inside the game folder for yours.
To get that menu, you
must have had sex with April.

There was a different bug that you helped uncover though, as you should be able to get there without the darkpath.
will be corrected next version.
Actually.. after looking at the way it's coded, I think I see how you got this bug.
You were on Aprils path, then you had sex with her, then you disabled her path from the Path menu.
So your save would unlock the ap7v var while not having her path enabled.
I'll add an 'and' to that 'if' statement.
From what I can tell..
You were on Emily's path, you had fun with her and Jasmin noticed, then you disabled Emily's path in the Path menu.
But then you went backwards.. (with either a load or a path jump), so now you're not on Emily's path but you have the jasknows var on.
Or.. you're using a mod that sets all vars to true and then you turned off the paths in the Path menu.
damn.. that would break the game so much.
Thanks, will be fixed next version
