The fact that Arcadia was even in the poll sort of leads me to believe that she has some moments lined up in the near future. Elis won't be going back to the west for a long time. And unless he has a planned trip to meet his in-laws in the South or North. There's plenty of opportunities to court Arcadia. Especially when she's pretty much a neutral party.
My only worry would be making Arcadia just Valeria 2.0 (the Western lady) with red hair; what would her motivation be for becoming the emperor’s concubine? At least Valeria was a cougar, Arcadia seems devoted to her family - why would she betray her husband for MC?

To be fair, Arcadia was the original Valeria. In terms of how she could've been setup. Only difference is her son is younger and her husband hasn't been around for more than a year. Who knows, her husband might even be dead. As for the concubine stuff. That will definitely be an issue since she is the noble lady with the status, if I'm not mistaken.

Wdym an issue? She’s in the same position as Valeria, and Valeria just said fuck it and already devised a plan to make sure she could raise MC’s bastard by herself if need be. Arcadia could do the same - a lot of noble ladies preferred to bear royal bastards in hopes of being promoted Queen one day.

The issue is Arcadia doesn't really want more power or wants to be the Queen. She already has a high standing. And like you said yourself in your other post, she's devoted to her family, the kingdom and her studies, I suppose. She also wants stability and fairness, from what I recall. She has no reason, yet, to entertain Elis lust. Especially since it's unknown if her husband died in the east or not. Just that he's been gone for over a year now. She doesn't come off as the type to do such things just because a King or Emperor offered it.

Unlike with Valeria, who is off in the west and was already planning to kill her husband with drugs. Even implying that her husband isn't even the father of Valerian. So for her, she's getting a future king lover and his bastard. Valeria already thought ahead about some of this stuff. She's different from Arcadia in that sense. Since she was doing this long before Elis was born basically. She didn't love her husband like Arcadia loved hers. She was already sleeping around and continued to do it after they were married.

That's why I'm not really all that bummed or concerned by Arcadia losing to Val in that poll. Not only do I want more Val content myself. Arcadia is pretty much Elis only Council member. Depending on how you did the coup. And overall will be present for most things in the kingdom. So there's ample amounts of opportunities for Arcadia to get a scene at any point going forward. If the dev chooses to do one, of course.
I am glad we are getting more Val, apparently she is ours but has been missing for most of the time.
Wouldn't mind getting more arcadia tho, she is a fine milf too

So you are telling me you'd rather have a scene with some random ginger instead of one with a sexy elven slave with a voluptous body?
Are we talking about the elf girl from the beginning? If so I would absolutely not call her voluptuous at all esically not if Arcadia is who we are comparing her too. Val's build is fairly average compared to most female characters in this game. I'm not opposed to more Val content, but I have no real interest in her either compared to any other side chick in this game aside from the fact she hasn't been seen in forever.

Pretty much the same for me. I wouldn't say I like Val more, but I don't mind her getting more content.

By that measure, Arcadia will have to blackmailed to get into MC's bed and become his concubine. Actually, that would be more interesting than just another Valeria situation. Especially since she would be the only sidegirl that would have to be "persuaded" to become a sidegirl that way.

I don't remember Valeria ever implying that her husband wasn't Valerian's father. I went back and reread her dialogue and she they only started having marital problems 10 years ago. It's just a dead marriage it wasn't that she never ever cared about him and was cheating on him the entirety of the marriage. She also wasn't just planning to kill her husband. She only does so if you side with the rebels or in case she can't convince her husband that Elis's baby is his. I don't even think Arcadia needs to be that different. Same thing dead marriage just have Elis seduce her instead of her jumping at him like Valeria did.

Then, LM better start cooking more MC x Arcadia interactions if he's planning to have Arcadia seduced. If Arcadia got added as the Extra scene, she would've been fucked within the span of a single update - and that would be out-of-character for her unless she was forced in some manner.

I don't think I conveyed myself right previously. I 100% think Arcadia would fuck Elis, if he caught her at the right moment. Something that's obvious by the poll. I just don't think a character with her intelligence would put herself and her son at risk by becoming the King's concubine. There's a difference between fucking around and actually going all the way, putting a target on your back. Especially if she gave birth to another boy. She should reasonably be well aware of what happens by getting too involved. As well as not being too reckless without knowing if her husband is dead or not.

That said, I would say it more depends on the dev and if he wants to really dive into it. She's a side character after all. There would obviously be sex. But her deciding to be his concubine and have his child? I don't know about that. At most I could see her having his child later if her husband is in fact dead. She can fully support it without involving herself or her family. That seems more like her style, in my own view. However, openly being his concubine would cause a lot of problems for her and I don't think she'll do that with her personality.

Arcadia, as it happened with every minor character until now, will be the star of 'one' update and then will be forgotten for a long time, has it always been and always will be. Not that I complain though, its OK to sideline minor characters for the refreshment of the overall story, as long as you don't forget them entirely.

Stable news on the upcoming update every 5 days. Chill bro. If things continue at this pace, I expect the update to be released around October 15th.
Quick guess on my part if you wouldn't mind. But, is Cass your favourite character by any chance?...:unsure:
