Mythshore is the creepiest of all of the events in LD and it's just so sad and tragic to think only two people survived due to those carelessness from Northcrest
Personally, I think the Ste's Road is much sadder as coming unprepared can be so...guilting. However, I do see what you mean. Even worse is that dying hope that the reason one of them is staying is due to the wish the other will be okay. Then you, MC, comes in and...affects their fate.
Probably affect interactions with you and Logan/Ste when it's about the Country Road I guess... Everyone survived at mine so I don't how it all goes if you failed.
I don't know how far you are, currently the most recently added story portion was for Orc's War where you had to look for Groth, met Kalghor and Nameless at Plains if Death.
Yeah the likes with B!Logan is going to be limited, But hey if you visit Ste's house between 15:00 - 20:00, there's a chance to find Logan getting pounded by Ste which is nice.
'Weird rumor' has just been added, no continuation as of right now. Gifts can be bought at the brothel (see 0.39 devlog).
It don't remember how to trigger the event but I think you need to have a heart with Ste or check for the Events Log. The Event is called "Country Road".
Just get some likes with him, 15 I guess.. maybe a bit more? And you can invite him in the morning to go to Bareshade, then later you'll get an option to make a road for him.
We don't know yet if Korg will play a bigger role in this questline, he can show up again, maybe? But if you used the love potion then he'll hate you afterwards so IF the reunion comes he might not be that happy to see you again..
You probably just need to use more lures. There isn't any special way of taming them. I can't remember exactly how many it was but a guaranteed tame takes anywhere from 10-20 lures, but usually 10 works for me.
I think you need to use atleast 5 lures for the debuff (I don't remember the name but if the stack is above 100, it means a guaranteed tame). Each lure gives 25 stacks and every turn it loses 1 stack.
If you have finished the Bandit's Attack story, you need to have the morale of the Bandit's Camp to at 25 at least. Then in the evening at the Tavern in Bareshade you can encounter Barrel there.
Adding to wildbara's comment you can also use the love potion on Harold so you don't need to pay for the sex and that doesn't change his relationship with you
How do I access the bull-guy/minotaur (can't remember his name) who lives on the farm that you access through the underground? I can't remember how to unlock him since the 0.30 update.
So, I made a choice that gave me one of Logan's black hearts. I thought I would be able to fix that, but I can't, and the old save is long gone. Is there any way to recover from them? If not, is there going to be a way in future updates?
You know as much as I find Gunnar an awful person, I got to recognise that he respects consent quite a lot, since whenever you express you're not interested he just lets you be and every scene with him you let him act the way he acts, he's still awful as a person but that's quite commendable
You need to have a positive "friendship"(if we can call it that) with him, then you need to go to Torben's house and do Gunnar's laundry(you need to have soap on you)
You the part with a lot of doors on the munbury complex? On that part go up and you'll end up in a part of it full of troglodytes then keep going up and take the other door in this part of the cave and exit the complex keep going up until you reach the wastelands
The needed gifts for the people are mention in the 0.39 update. Most of them can be bought at the Brothel in Northcrest.
The medicine for that guy was, if I remember right, Spectral Fever? ..The one you gave to Bernard, but you should still learn about the other option back at your home by studying in order to continue Mythshore.
wait do you mean the Shopkeeper? plus the cage is prolly the upgrade in the building menu when you click it in your house. needs silver powder and diabosite i think?
No it's the top right skull icon, there you'll find him.
The injured wolf is just a pet for you to take home if you want.. Sorry I can't remember where I learned of the antitoxin recipe, you can always use the guide in the menu when you start the game.
So, everytime I try to make progress with the Caleb's route by visit him at the old barn or investigating the wasteland for clues, the game immediately crash
Just fight 2-3 random werewolves doesn't matter how the fight with them ends if you win, lose, submit or fuck them you just need those fights to lure the werewolf alpha. If you're talking about the dire wolf(normal) alpha just go to the skull at the top right you'll fight three wolves there the middle one is the alpha
I think he meant entering the door in wolves den. I think you need to encounter Logan being angry at night. After he left, check again the den. You will see that there is a mark right below the door. After that, you can enter the door and fight the beta wolf then alpha wolf. (Logan is having revenge after being converted to a werewolf)
I know he has two hearts and I know of getting it by his encounter in the temple at night. I want to know the second event that gives me his second heart.
uh first off im a little confused but i am guessing you mean start a relationship with them? because if that is what you mean yes you can have a relationship with anyone that has a relationship bar which can be found the menu thingy on the bottom of the screen.
second off, no the character is intentionally anonymous so we can imagine the character instead of having a specific base, which also makes us need to worry less about update times sometimes since the MC doesn't have a "set" design he can't have CGs meaning scenes with the MC only require the text and other person/persons to be present on screen.
also, on the change your species thing, a lot of people want it, be it a way to start off a werewolf or Lizardfolk or eventually becomes one via idk a bite (Werewolves) or like a ritual (Lizardfolk) maybe even a rite of passage (Orcs?) but it is currently not implemented, and I do not know or believe Hyao really plans on adding it in. I do not know all his choices or what he's planning so in all honesty it is a very large possibility if enough people want it. unless someone asked it and a while back, he said specifically no and I missed that, which would be the only confirmable way for us to know if Hyao plans or not to add them in.
yall someone mentioned some things about the witch and it made me remember a little theory i had, what if she has something to do with the orcs? its reaching really fucking hard but imagine she secretly is the bad guy and the nameless is just an ass about trying to be a hero because thats who he is and the witch is going to ask us to like idk help her sneak into one of the tribes and help her kill someone, but if you chose the nameless over her he can help save the person and help hide them from the witch while revealing he is a good guy and she isnt, or another fun one would be the nameless just kinda says "i told you so" and is just like the lesser of 2 evils compared to her. it would be fun to see, but also him being eviler at this point feels more natural because of how the 2 characters are built.
I wouldn't put it past her since I don't trust that woman, but I think my theory reaches a bit further than yours since my theory is that the third party involved with the orcs is actually the herbalist's master for no other reason than the red orc leader whose name I can't remember is surprised by the fact that the herbalist can fight since his informant told him that we're closer to a shaman, which may imply that the informant is not aware of our deeds throughout the continent and also the orc leader seemed to imply we have a personal connection to the informant which is not the case with the witch, our relation with her is more business, but yeah I have no proof and it would make more sense to be her sice she's the only other magic user that may do this since her motives are not clear. ( Didn't the herbalist say their teacher was interested in alchemy? and Isn't alchemy a type of magic? Honest question can't remember )
ok for the alchemy thing i think does count for magic to some people but not others, so like that's an opinion thing? I side with it being magic Tho for personal reasons. however, your theory about the teacher being it is actually really interesting! like you said it may not have much evidence, but pretty much any evidence can say towards it. like a while back before satyrs were added Hyao hinted at them with music, granted music in a forest would make sense for them it could have also been like fucking sirens or mermaids or anything else involving music. point is just hints can mean anything and something THIS massive is either going to be a major plot twist, major character reveal or introducing someone we have needed to meet since the beginning (cough cough 'the teacher' cough cough) also the teacher not knowing would make sense because of 2 things, 1. as you said he hasn't seen us in forever and prolly only has our history with him to go off and 2. who ever fucking mentions what we do outside of the people we saved? like no one knows about the lizard tribe unless we tell them, no one knows about Mythshore excluding Everett, no one knows about the entire fucking Werewolf pandemic that nearly started and no one knows about the fight between the MC and the leader of the red orcs aside from the chief and our homie in the orc village. the only thing I'm a little confused about is why he would say the MC is a shaman, MC was an apprentice when the teacher left weren't they? so wouldn't he say something more like student or well apprentice? other than that you actually kinda got me on board with thinking it's the teacher now XD
What he says is more along the lines that we were supposed to be something closer to a shaman, he doesn't outright call us a shaman he just compares what we do to the closest thing he knows so if the herbalist's master were the one that's messing with the orcs and he said that he has an apprentice then the orcs would simply associate the herbalist to a starting shaman or something similar to that, regarding 2 I would think that at least our reputation around the area the informant is from would influence the informant perception of us when giving information, but the information itself looks pretty unbiased in stark contrast to to opinion the leader has of the herbalist based on the tribe attitude towards them, hence why I mentioned the deeds. And Yeah alchemy is in such a grey area that's kinda confusing, since there's a lot of settings in which it is a form of magic but there's also a lot in which it is basically rudimentary chemistry, and there's no elaboration of what it is here like they drop it in the story and then move along, like Xeroth is a fricking alchemist but we never get a elaboration of what that entails, of course that's not at all story relevant and I would imagine it's common knowledge enough so that the herbalist wouldn't need someone explaining it to them (an inhabitant of that world).
Also here's something extra to add to trust issues have you ever toyed with the idea that the third party is actually Feliar? Like who knows what nefarious secrets he keeps locked behind that door? I certainly don't! What is it that he hides?!
YO NO FUCKING JOKE I WAS THINKING ABOUT FELIAR BEING THE TRAITOR THE NAMELESS WARNED US OF!!!!.. WAIT OML WHAT IF FELIAR IS INVOLVED IN THE ORC SITUATION AND ITS THE TEACHER BUT FELIAR, HE IS SOMEONE WE KNOW WHO WE ALSO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHOSE HISTORY IS HIDDEN AND HAPPENS TO BE CLOSE THE HERBALIST AND ALSO CLOSE TO THIS SITUATION WE INVOLVED HIM IN! AND HE WOULDNT KNOW ANYTHING WE DIDNT DIRECTLY TELL HIM AND SINCE WE MOSTLY ARE CHILL AND DONT DO MUCH FIGHTING HE WOULD ASSUME WE DO MORE HERBOLOGY AND SUCH INSTEAD! (also i thought about Feliar being the traitor from the nameless warning not this you just completely brought up a whole new idea that is plausible to an INCREDIBLY fun extent.) then the locked door thing, I'm betting its either coffee or secretly the real jester, also on this thing I just stated I have a weird suspicion that jester might not be the original jester, I don't even know why I feel that way I just do. no evidence so far either so like if that's true I'm saying all my feelings and seeing how many are correct at the end of this lol. but back on track, I feel like we now have like an absolute on 4 suspects involving this now because of you mentioning Feliar. First being the teacher, Second being The Witch, Third being Feliar and Fourth being the only option we know exactly zilch about, the possibility it's a completely new character and they will be introduced eventually. (Or fifth none of these and it's the fucking nameless or the weird rabbit demon from Ste's place.)
Regarding Jester, I also think he's a shape-shifter but to me the original Jester is, the Jester we got, like he's some kind of hybrid and the secret organisation on Northcrest wants him back for research purposes or just so they can integrate him in their society, for me the most likely person to not be the original would be Ruben with what evidence do I think that, you ask? Well feelings... So none at all. The demon rabbit to me seems like a off-shoot from the nameless like a little branch from him since I think what gift you choose from the nameless changes the rabbit dialogue, not sure, I'm one of those people who chooses a path and sticks with it all subsequent play throughs, so like the rabbit is not the nameless but it's somehow connected to him, like with the witches being opposite reflections of each other, they're the same being in essence but also different facets of one another, I think the rabbit is something like that but with less interrelation with the nameless.
Also the list of suspects is a lot smaller than I thought it would be, also I totally agree with it.

How do I trigger the Country road quest??? Someone please help me
Finish Bareshade Expansion
I did! what do i do
oh hmm... what about The Lizard's Curse?
Nope didn't do that one yet lol okay thanks!
Okay I finished the curst of lust How do I do the country road now?
How Do I fill the talismen with energy??
wasn't that at Othra's?
How much like does he have
does he have promt to go to bareshade?
Mythshore is the creepiest of all of the events in LD and it's just so sad and tragic to think only two people survived due to those carelessness from Northcrest
Personally, I think the Ste's Road is much sadder as coming unprepared can be so...guilting. However, I do see what you mean. Even worse is that dying hope that the reason one of them is staying is due to the wish the other will be okay. Then you, MC, comes in and...affects their fate.
in the brothel questline
in the third quest, how do you find the guy to pay his debt back
certain days go to the residential district at night/past 20:00 in game. i cant remember the certain days sorry,
Exactly what it says, someone died during your building process. You didn't had the required potions..
I'm hoping you have a savefile prior the building process so you can take your time to get the potions.
Will this affect the further events?
And what other events I can unlock?
Probably affect interactions with you and Logan/Ste when it's about the Country Road I guess... Everyone survived at mine so I don't how it all goes if you failed.
I don't know how far you are, currently the most recently added story portion was for Orc's War where you had to look for Groth, met Kalghor and Nameless at Plains if Death.
I can't even obtain likes from logan since I choose the bottom logan route.
And I'm really having trouble about creating a "weird rumor" and giving gifts to the characters
Yeah the likes with B!Logan is going to be limited, But hey if you visit Ste's house between 15:00 - 20:00, there's a chance to find Logan getting pounded by Ste which is nice.
'Weird rumor' has just been added, no continuation as of right now. Gifts can be bought at the brothel (see 0.39 devlog).
Oof My neck hurts after seeing this pic.
LMAOOOOOOO😭😭😭😭
what pic?
what gifts can i give logan and gunnar ?
You can give both of them flower arrangements, you can buy them at the Brothel in Northcrest. All gifts are listed at the 0.39 devlog btw.
You can also gift Logan a tank top and that is not listed on the devlog. His reaction to recieving a shirt is so cute that I have no words to describe
Wait really? Gonna do that soon!
Edit;
Yes, yes it was adorable indeed. Blushing Logan is the best.
somehow giving logan a flower arrangement made a certain "julian" get mad at how you're giving flowers to logan
i cant even access the brothel in northcrest it always says "Under renovation", how do i fix that? i also updated the game to 0.3
you wait one in game week after going the first time, also it needs to be past i believe day 70?
hey bros I just rescued Ste after Bareshade Expansion, can I still trigger country road event and if I can, how?
It don't remember how to trigger the event but I think you need to have a heart with Ste or check for the Events Log. The Event is called "Country Road".
Just get some likes with him, 15 I guess.. maybe a bit more? And you can invite him in the morning to go to Bareshade, then later you'll get an option to make a road for him.
Edit;
I misremembered, it's likely around 35 likes.
Do y'all know where can I get more Cleansing Water?
Talk to Othra in Ruins (daily)
if you use a love potion on Korg and you haven't completed the war quest line, will he ever come up again so you can finish the quest?
We don't know yet if Korg will play a bigger role in this questline, he can show up again, maybe? But if you used the love potion then he'll hate you afterwards so IF the reunion comes he might not be that happy to see you again..
ok. thank you very much for the info and yeah, i used it on him so he hates me. Gunnar hates me too though lol
Oh no, lol.. rip. Oh well when 0.40 drops soon we probably gonna have to start anew because of the new build. So you can get Korg back again :)
Hyao warns us when the save resets happen, and he has not said anything about a reset so i dont think we will have to reset lol
Oh I didn't know.. then again I only started with 0.37..
Well.. crap.. if we don't have to reset, lol.. Oh well, gonna restart soon tho, I missed out on Ste's second heart.
I think you will talk to a messenger instead if that happens
How Do I Tame A wolbauk I used my lures But he didn't get tamed Can someone help me?
You probably just need to use more lures. There isn't any special way of taming them. I can't remember exactly how many it was but a guaranteed tame takes anywhere from 10-20 lures, but usually 10 works for me.
You only need to use 5 for a guarantee, at least in my experience
I think you need to use atleast 5 lures for the debuff (I don't remember the name but if the stack is above 100, it means a guaranteed tame). Each lure gives 25 stacks and every turn it loses 1 stack.
So guys who do you think is Nameless?for me it's either Feliar or the Teacher himself.
What will happen if you gave Blake a love potion? Will the good relationship between him and us will be broke?
nothing happens
Who are the other characters you can give Love Potion?
Bernard (Dislikes you a lil' bit)
Barrel
Feliar (Likes you more)
Korg (Hates you)
Xeroth (Likes you more I think)
If you have finished the Bandit's Attack story, you need to have the morale of the Bandit's Camp to at 25 at least. Then in the evening at the Tavern in Bareshade you can encounter Barrel there.
Adding to wildbara's comment you can also use the love potion on Harold so you don't need to pay for the sex and that doesn't change his relationship with you
I knew I forgot someone, lol..
How do I access the bull-guy/minotaur (can't remember his name) who lives on the farm that you access through the underground? I can't remember how to unlock him since the 0.30 update.
Rescue Ste from Vicoria, you can get to her cave from River's Bank, the spot where you can visit Feliar.
If you haven't met Vicoria yet then you'll run into Korg first, the second prisoner is Ste.
How do I rescue Ste from Victoria?I can't see him anywhere the shaft
Either you fight Vicora (tease her) or please her. I don't remember it comepletely.
Bring Arion to her
The cell is empty
If it's empty then you have already met him before... have you met him again at Farmstead? Keep looking around until you find his house
Farmstea? In the Barshade?
No, Farmstead. Might have been a while ago but Ste mentioned it? It's his farm where you can get to by cave from Forest Path
Is it able to put bandits in your jail back home? And how?
Sadly it's not.
So, I'm having trouble giving gifts to Caleb. I can't seem to find the items he want. (He just eats the flowers I give him)
I was in the same problem, and it was that I never got the battle harness with Barrel that is obtained in the camp at the beginning
You can still get it when you spar with him in the bandit camp
I think you can gift him the leash after doing the Walk event
Hello! Is it possible to get 2 or more hearts with xeroth? If so, how? Thanks!!!
So, I made a choice that gave me one of Logan's black hearts. I thought I would be able to fix that, but I can't, and the old save is long gone. Is there any way to recover from them? If not, is there going to be a way in future updates?
Since there is no way to recover from black hearts, then it'll prolly not going to happen to Logan as well, so I guess you're really unlucky.. :/
Yeah, you need to reset from the last save or restart the whole game.
You know as much as I find Gunnar an awful person, I got to recognise that he respects consent quite a lot, since whenever you express you're not interested he just lets you be and every scene with him you let him act the way he acts, he's still awful as a person but that's quite commendable
how do i get gunnar cum's rag i don't know how
You need to have a positive "friendship"(if we can call it that) with him, then you need to go to Torben's house and do Gunnar's laundry(you need to have soap on you)
You need to finish the Bareshade's Expansion and choose more houses as the upgrade.
After getting his cum rag, you can also use it to relieve yourself at home then admit it to him that you used it.
HOW DO I EXPLORE THE MUNBURY COMPLEX AND FIND THE WAY TO REACH THE NORTHERN EXIT
YEAA i'm tryna get to the northern exit too!
You just need to go up for the northern exit
I don't get it, state more details?
You the part with a lot of doors on the munbury complex? On that part go up and you'll end up in a part of it full of troglodytes then keep going up and take the other door in this part of the cave and exit the complex keep going up until you reach the wastelands
Is there any more continuation?it stop when I finish the "ask Orgram on how you can gain his trust"
Just wait for some days then come back to him to continue the quest line
cn you show the picture of that area ? because i am on that quest as well
If you still need help getting out of the complex here you go:
What does a wolbauk eats?
Driondra bulbs found in the wasteland
How do we craft the gifts? And how do we do thw medexib for the guy at the zombie city????
The needed gifts for the people are mention in the 0.39 update. Most of them can be bought at the Brothel in Northcrest.
The medicine for that guy was, if I remember right, Spectral Fever? ..The one you gave to Bernard, but you should still learn about the other option back at your home by studying in order to continue Mythshore.
Does anyone know what I do with the crypt??
nothing for right now.
How do I build cage ?
More like does anyone know how to get cage for bartender
cage for what. this sounds interesting but also a little scary for our homie Harold XD
o when u lure him... it says something about a cage when u get the werewolf lure u need a cage or something
wait do you mean the Shopkeeper? plus the cage is prolly the upgrade in the building menu when you click it in your house. needs silver powder and diabosite i think?
o thanks
How do I find the witch? i keep trying the pond and can't find her
she's at the swamp actually
Thanks
specifically, the dark swamp, I should've mention that..
o yea thanks I got it now 😊
How to get back Korg's Heart? I lost it accidentally after clicking the Love Potion option. (I don't have any previous save file to reset)
Unfortunately you can't get it back
Thank you for replying :)
I decided to restart because I don't want to lose my beloved orc.
How do I get the wolf fang and defeat the pack leader??
The wolf fang is the question mark at the very top right corner of the wolves den. He is also the pack leader.
The injured wolf? It said it needs 1 health potion,strength potion and Antitoxin. I don't know how to make or where to find an antitoxin
No it's the top right skull icon, there you'll find him.
The injured wolf is just a pet for you to take home if you want.. Sorry I can't remember where I learned of the antitoxin recipe, you can always use the guide in the menu when you start the game.
NO WAY NO WAY, I WAS SO SHOCKED AND IT WAS TRUE. OR PERHAPS I WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION :>
What are the ways to make Ste like you more? I'm currently stuck at 56 points and nothing seems to increase it anymore.
You need to sleep at home. Ste can visit at your home at some times.
how do i check around my house?
so how do i get the second arion heart?
Going on a date with him
how???
Buy a tulip
i have a question, how many times do you need to have sex in order to raise the sexual experience to master?
i have some save problems for Android
So, everytime I try to make progress with the Caleb's route by visit him at the old barn or investigating the wasteland for clues, the game immediately crash
How do I progress my relationship with Logan? And is there a bottom Logan route yet?
I see in an earlier post you were already at the Werewolf attack story?
In order to gain your first heart with him is to check on him after the attack instead of going after Bernard.
Yes, the bottom route is to have him encouraged to go to the Bandit's Camp. But you won't gain many more likes, let alone your first heart.
I can't get into the inner wolf den to kill the alpha. It keeps saying I'm not ready. What do I need to do?
Just fight 2-3 random werewolves doesn't matter how the fight with them ends if you win, lose, submit or fuck them you just need those fights to lure the werewolf alpha. If you're talking about the dire wolf(normal) alpha just go to the skull at the top right you'll fight three wolves there the middle one is the alpha
I think he meant entering the door in wolves den. I think you need to encounter Logan being angry at night. After he left, check again the den. You will see that there is a mark right below the door. After that, you can enter the door and fight the beta wolf then alpha wolf. (Logan is having revenge after being converted to a werewolf)
Either submit or tease them to the maximum that would would better their attitude towards you, you need a high positive attitude to break that wall
give them love potions for faster result
What are the ways to get Rhot's two hearts?
Rhot has 2 hearts?
I know he has two hearts and I know of getting it by his encounter in the temple at night. I want to know the second event that gives me his second heart.
oh. brb gonna be stalking Rhot for a couple hours to figure this out
is there a way to be in a relationship with anyone? like Caleb or Bernard?(those 2 are just examples)
PS. is there a way to actually show the players pic and is there a way to create a new character like a werewolf or other species?
uh first off im a little confused but i am guessing you mean start a relationship with them? because if that is what you mean yes you can have a relationship with anyone that has a relationship bar which can be found the menu thingy on the bottom of the screen.
second off, no the character is intentionally anonymous so we can imagine the character instead of having a specific base, which also makes us need to worry less about update times sometimes since the MC doesn't have a "set" design he can't have CGs meaning scenes with the MC only require the text and other person/persons to be present on screen.
also, on the change your species thing, a lot of people want it, be it a way to start off a werewolf or Lizardfolk or eventually becomes one via idk a bite (Werewolves) or like a ritual (Lizardfolk) maybe even a rite of passage (Orcs?) but it is currently not implemented, and I do not know or believe Hyao really plans on adding it in. I do not know all his choices or what he's planning so in all honesty it is a very large possibility if enough people want it. unless someone asked it and a while back, he said specifically no and I missed that, which would be the only confirmable way for us to know if Hyao plans or not to add them in.
alright i just wanted to know is all. thanks anyway
Is something going to happen with the weird gauntlet that Bernard is wearing? It looks like it has a crazy gem in it and it's bugging me.
....why did you mention this now I wanna know if he has some family secret involving the gem or if it's just a regular stone he got for his gauntlet.
yall someone mentioned some things about the witch and it made me remember a little theory i had, what if she has something to do with the orcs? its reaching really fucking hard but imagine she secretly is the bad guy and the nameless is just an ass about trying to be a hero because thats who he is and the witch is going to ask us to like idk help her sneak into one of the tribes and help her kill someone, but if you chose the nameless over her he can help save the person and help hide them from the witch while revealing he is a good guy and she isnt, or another fun one would be the nameless just kinda says "i told you so" and is just like the lesser of 2 evils compared to her. it would be fun to see, but also him being eviler at this point feels more natural because of how the 2 characters are built.

What he says is more along the lines that we were supposed to be something closer to a shaman, he doesn't outright call us a shaman he just compares what we do to the closest thing he knows so if the herbalist's master were the one that's messing with the orcs and he said that he has an apprentice then the orcs would simply associate the herbalist to a starting shaman or something similar to that, regarding 2 I would think that at least our reputation around the area the informant is from would influence the informant perception of us when giving information, but the information itself looks pretty unbiased in stark contrast to to opinion the leader has of the herbalist based on the tribe attitude towards them, hence why I mentioned the deeds. And Yeah alchemy is in such a grey area that's kinda confusing, since there's a lot of settings in which it is a form of magic but there's also a lot in which it is basically rudimentary chemistry, and there's no elaboration of what it is here like they drop it in the story and then move along, like Xeroth is a fricking alchemist but we never get a elaboration of what that entails, of course that's not at all story relevant and I would imagine it's common knowledge enough so that the herbalist wouldn't need someone explaining it to them (an inhabitant of that world).
Also here's something extra to add to trust issues have you ever toyed with the idea that the third party is actually Feliar? Like who knows what nefarious secrets he keeps locked behind that door? I certainly don't! What is it that he hides?!
YO NO FUCKING JOKE I WAS THINKING ABOUT FELIAR BEING THE TRAITOR THE NAMELESS WARNED US OF!!!!.. WAIT OML WHAT IF FELIAR IS INVOLVED IN THE ORC SITUATION AND ITS THE TEACHER BUT FELIAR, HE IS SOMEONE WE KNOW WHO WE ALSO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHOSE HISTORY IS HIDDEN AND HAPPENS TO BE CLOSE THE HERBALIST AND ALSO CLOSE TO THIS SITUATION WE INVOLVED HIM IN! AND HE WOULDNT KNOW ANYTHING WE DIDNT DIRECTLY TELL HIM AND SINCE WE MOSTLY ARE CHILL AND DONT DO MUCH FIGHTING HE WOULD ASSUME WE DO MORE HERBOLOGY AND SUCH INSTEAD! (also i thought about Feliar being the traitor from the nameless warning not this you just completely brought up a whole new idea that is plausible to an INCREDIBLY fun extent.) then the locked door thing, I'm betting its either coffee or secretly the real jester, also on this thing I just stated I have a weird suspicion that jester might not be the original jester, I don't even know why I feel that way I just do. no evidence so far either so like if that's true I'm saying all my feelings and seeing how many are correct at the end of this lol. but back on track, I feel like we now have like an absolute on 4 suspects involving this now because of you mentioning Feliar. First being the teacher, Second being The Witch, Third being Feliar and Fourth being the only option we know exactly zilch about, the possibility it's a completely new character and they will be introduced eventually. (Or fifth none of these and it's the fucking nameless or the weird rabbit demon from Ste's place.)
Regarding Jester, I also think he's a shape-shifter but to me the original Jester is, the Jester we got, like he's some kind of hybrid and the secret organisation on Northcrest wants him back for research purposes or just so they can integrate him in their society, for me the most likely person to not be the original would be Ruben with what evidence do I think that, you ask? Well feelings... So none at all. The demon rabbit to me seems like a off-shoot from the nameless like a little branch from him since I think what gift you choose from the nameless changes the rabbit dialogue, not sure, I'm one of those people who chooses a path and sticks with it all subsequent play throughs, so like the rabbit is not the nameless but it's somehow connected to him, like with the witches being opposite reflections of each other, they're the same being in essence but also different facets of one another, I think the rabbit is something like that but with less interrelation with the nameless.
Also the list of suspects is a lot smaller than I thought it would be, also I totally agree with it.
