I had a fun few ideas centered around the idea of having more women in the wild. Just want to write them down.
1. QUEST: Someone(female) starts stealing from the shop. You drug them and drag them to the wilds and tie them up(or just leave them) letting monsters fuck them. You get some essence and then you can send them to an area each week/day to get some extra essence. Maybe the thief steals from shop 3 times and you drag her to each area before she eventually goes of her own will and sometimes gives you essence.
2: QUEST: Someone(female) follows you to forest for some reason and you find them getting fucked. After the monster leaves or you help them, they find they too like fucking monsters and show up occasionally in the wilds giving you free essence.
3: RANDOM ENCOUNTERS: every once in a will you come across a villager getting fucked in the wilds and you can help them for some extra essence.
4: QUEST: you can come across new(or just villagers) characters in various situations in the wilds and help them out to get various rewards. Maybe a Missing Person board outside the shop to indicate the are.
