All Endings

To quote the devel­op­er (Win­ter Wolves) from Steam:

A lit­tle more help for the end­ings! There are three events that deter­mine all the end­ings:
- if you trust tobias or not
- if you tell your love inter­est about “the plan” or not
- if Apolimesho is present or not

Start at the dia­logue between Nes­sa and Tobias in Chap­ter 10: Answers (once you made it this far, no pri­or deci­sions mat­ter).

These are the 3 deci­sion points

Don’t Believe

Home Sweet Home = Don’t Believe + Tell + Tell Apolimesho

Home Sweet Home = Don’t Believe + Lie + Tell Apolimesho

Final Illu­sion = Don’t Believe + Lie + Don’t Tell Apolimesho

Secret Agents = Don’t Believe + Tell + Don’t Tell Apolimesho

Believe

Sweet Revenge = Believe + Tell + Tell Apolimesho

Sweet Revenge = Believe + Lie + Tell Apolimesho

Last Stand = Believe + Lie + Don’t Tell Apolimesho

For Eter­ni­ty = Believe + Tell + Don’t Tell Apolimesho

The All-See­ing God Achieve­ment = Unlock all oth­er end­ings

Nadja’s Poledance
A New Beautiful Day
Evelyn at the Window
Under the Cloak, Nothing
Nice Day at the Lake
Warm Waters

**GAME SPOILERS** Mysteries Uncovered

All found through var­i­ous dia­logues with char­ac­ters

Who killed the 3 stu­dents?

Answer: Thomas (aka Bhorg). Samael had caught up to the 3 teenagers as they tried to reach the tem­ple, but they aggres­sive­ly con­demned him for keep­ing such a dan­ger­ous crea­ture in his base­ment, threat­en­ing him. Gilas the male want­ed to attack Bhorg and kill him, but Samael tried to stop them say­ing that Bhorg is not a dan­ger. Gilas cast a spell which Samael blocked with his armor, but it made Bhorg mad that Samael was attacked, so Bhorg killed all 3 teenagers. Samael was tak­en aback by this vicious reac­tion. Even if he meant it in defense of Samael, Bhorg was, at his core, a beast capa­ble of inflict­ing much harm. The 3 bod­ies were nev­er found because Samael tossed them into the riv­er.

Who killed Here­boros?

Answer: Gus, Tara’s broth­er, but by acci­dent. He had heard a com­mo­tion while out­side the city walls, and rode towards it think­ing it was ban­dits. Instead, it was Samael being attacked by Here­boros, Gilas’s father and a pow­er­ful mage. Gus jumped in to help his Cap­tain who gave Gus his enchant­ed shield (a wed­ding gift from Martha, Samael’s elf wife). Just as the mage sent a spell, Gus raised the shield which deflect­ed the spell right back at the cast­er. He died, and they threw the body in the water. That’s why Gus had not been so well. It was an acci­dent, but he’d still killed a very impor­tant and pow­er­ful man.

Who killed Gron­imir the mer­chant?

Answer: Nad­ja the dancer, Cyn­thi­a’s moth­er. In order to buy the The House of Hands, Nad­ja had to take out a large loan from sev­er­al investors the biggest of whom was Gron­imir who was very influ­en­tial with the ear of the town assem­bly… and under the table, too. He start­ed black­mail­ing Nad­ja, demand­ing the mon­ey back. The night he died, he raped Nad­ja, but did­n’t intend to stop there because he want­ed Cyn­thia, too. Nad­ja killed him with a spe­cial spell called Invis­i­ble Dag­gers and staged the blood out­side the win­dow.

Who and what is Bhorg?

Answer: Bhorg (aka Thomas) is Eve­lyn’s half-broth­er. Martha, Eve­lyn’s elven moth­er had dis­obeyed her hus­band Samael dur­ing the Orc War and gone out­side the city gates to gath­er herbs. Samael raced out to find her, but it was too late as she’d been raped by an Orc. While nor­mal­ly Elves and Orcs should not pro­duce viable off­spring, for some rea­son she became preg­nant. Despite the preg­nan­cy being dan­ger­ous, both elven moth­er and elven-orc child sur­vived.

Want­ed Mon­ster Loca­tions

In order to catch the mon­ster, you have to use your Seal after whit­tling down its health (ZL but­ton)

Orc Archer

It’s in the cave on the side of the riv­er away from town

Slime

The slime appears with oth­er mon­sters. The bridge there is a great place to fish!

Fairy

Anoth­er great place to fish!

Big Muck

Chip­squeak

Ignis

Ele­men­tal­ist

Guardian

Hell Ghost

Mer­maid, Lit­tle Drag­on, and Ice Grif­fin

These 3 mon­sters become avail­able after com­plet­ing the main list. The rewards and loca­tions are ran­dom and change dai­ly. You are allowed to under­take each 1x a day.

Mon­ster Tam­ing

  • Use your Seal Spell (ZL but­ton) to catch the mon­ster and then feed it items until it gets the heart with flow­ers.
  • If it gets a heart with a skull after, then keep try­ing sim­i­lar items until it becomes a heart with flow­ers
  • If you get all skulls and no hearts at all, you like­ly have no space in the barn. Either build a new one, an addi­tion­al room, or clear a mon­ster
  • Every mon­ster has favorite items, but gen­er­al­ly, you can use any­thing pro­vid­ed your lev­el is high enough
  • Mon­ster’s favorite items are usu­al­ly items they drop
  • You can only use spe­cif­ic items on Boss mon­sters which is usu­al­ly the items they drop them­selves plus oth­er par­tic­u­lar items accord­ing to oth­er guides.

Star­fall Crops

The day after a mete­or show­er (total­ly ran­dom event denot­ed by the day’s icon) some­where in the world (Phoros Wood­lands, Kelve Vol­canic Region, Lake Yumi­na, Gadeus Grass­lands, etc) there will be a mete­or crashed into the ground. Appar­ent­ly, they are in cer­tain loca­tions, but it’s still ran­dom. My first one was in Phoros Wood­lands in the desert.

You smash it with your ham­mer and get Star­fall Seeds. The seed is huge and takes up a 2x2 area. Depend­ing on what sea­son you plant it in, you’ll get a par­tic­u­lar crop. It takes sev­er­al days before it can be har­vest­ed (I end­ed up using growth for­mu­lae because I’m impa­tient).

Mine was plant­ed in the sum­mer so I got Star­fall Corn.

You can save it to cook with (or maybe enter the Har­vest Fes­ti­val with) or sell it for lots of moolas.

Creep­er Screen­shots

There’s a Badge you can use to sneak into every­one’s homes when they’re sleep­ing for “inves­tiga­tive pur­pos­es”. I found it both creepy and hilar­i­ous, so here are the screen­shots for each char­ac­ter.

Note: Doug, Mar­garet, and Radea stay at the Hotel and have no option to choose to inves­ti­gate. Every char­ac­ter DOES say some­thing in an aside the first time you approach them in their beds.
