The Love Path with the queen is so bad that I couldn't help it and replayed it without her, and it was by far my best playthrough. (Lust Path isn't worth it either.)
My playthrough was basically Bookworm > Aurora > White > Lords.
Without any sexual/romantic relationships with Seraphina, Lia, or Cassandra, I intended to avoid Elin as well, but I failed.
I also avoided many sex scenes that seemed unimportant; I don't want the elves capturing every woman I sleep with.
I went after Sona because Bookworm is incapable of defending himself, and Josephine, but simply because I loved her, but I don't know if I'll see her again, I helped kill her husband, and the elves will probably capture her, since she's most likely pregnant with my child. (But what I'd really like is for her to come after me in the capital and agree to be my lover; after all, she's already accepted that she's a "bad girl.")
The reason I chose Bookworm was, first, because Magic Weaver, which seemed more interesting, was abandoned by LM; second, all my other gameplay was with the Warrior perk; and third, I was thinking that I'll have to deal with elves soon, and I'll need to understand what they're saying to avoid being tricked.
Now I'll try to do a similar playthrough, but choosing Warrior and Isis.
