Once again the update doesn't disappoint, kudos to the dev.

About the cliffhanger at the end and the elves in general

The apparent death of Finnabair is such a pity (maybe she's not dead but it is long shot at the moment). I really like her, even at the beginning. To good to be a side girl, her character growth was very enjoyable and the sex scene was great. I could see something bad happening to her coming but killing her off is painful.

I feel like the dev got a bit stuck, because of the choice to kill or spare her at the beginning which is a shame because canonically I can't see MC killing her off in that situation, even if you shaped his personality to be confrontational and impulsive.

A good alternative could have been to replace the choice to kill her with just knocking her out. That way you can still have a bad reaction from the Elves.

I know that having Finnabair allegedly killed by the Templars is a good way to rise the stakes and create conflict in MC but her father (Allill?) could have filled the role too, once MC starts to train with Finnabair, he almost disappear which is a shame. He is the first Elve to be friendly or at least not hostile to MC, he seems to be on the older side and antiwar.

You could have some dinner scenes with him teaching MC about Elve history (stick Medb to language duty). You could also quickly having MC to have huge respect for him for his values, his pacifism, being upfront and honest with his daughter (unlike MC father) etc. Him getting killed by Templars would also convince elves to start war, create conflict and anger into MC and even a rift between Finnabair and MC.

Doing that to Finnabair was fucked up. :cry:

I want to go have another chat with Nimue now and see if she can toss Excalibur our way since it's the sword made for aggression and war, and clearly some bitches need seeing to. Should bring Lugh along, too.

Speaking of Nimue though, damn, she's gorgeous.

Drink mead. Drink more mead with her. Be cocky. Already have thanked her before. That's all I recall, but it's do-able. Bit of a revelation on that path as well.

Haven't had a chance to play the latest yet but find myself wondering when I finally plant my seed deep in Medb's vagina will she give birth to one hybrid baby or will she have a whole litter like some animals? :unsure:

I don't know if all of these steps are strictly necessary, but here's what I did:

- resist the succubus
- thank her when you see her at Templar HQ
- drink mead
- thank her for her advice at the bar
- ask if she can stay for another drink
- ask if she wants to come home with you

You know, the thing... at the end... that would be a spoiler if I said it. (Fin) :)
That's what the spoiler box and in-line spoilers are for.

Like so : I'm afraid it is true, since you attend her funeral and her corpse is shown. If you didn't get that scene you may not have had enough points.

I was thinking the same thing until I played through it again hoping for a different outcome but the boat she's in still burns at the end no matter which route I follow

This game tried to connect internet at launch and didn't launch at all when I prevented connection.
Previous version didn't do that shit. Game deleted.

I play these games only offline, especially since month or two ago some of them managed to install cryptominer into my computer (replacing browser's add-on).

I'm still holding out hope Nimue and her time-travelling lake portal might be able to help us out...but it's probably in vain.

Great update!
Bro but still hope for Finnabair great character, her development is amanzing during the chapter, but her fate is bad so far. ( no body = no death)
maybe this is a lie , maybe she got ambushed and not returned and the Alfar think she is dead.

Well, that sucks. If wanted to be sad I'll just go watch world news.

Also, killing off one of the most interesting love interests (imo) as a cliffhanger is probably not the greatest strategy to grab those patreon subs either. I was totally invested and now I'm like... well, not. heh
