When I was doing the Baron truth serum scene, after he was caught and the explanation was concluded it reset the whole thing and started the ālocking the knights outā section.

I mean, I think the code implied something like this would happen so Iām not really surprised
Is it possible to sabotage eliās rescue mission in which u rescue him yet inflicting large casualties for our team?
Also can we get more rude/menacing comments when talking with tahlia? MC is very much salty how he is resurrected without his consent and is obliged to fight for Arcadia something he hates due to him associating it to Sister and her dad (forgot both their names lol) and the fact that he still likes saine and ilya with his views on leon being the same as saine (cold yet forgiven)

I feel similarly. It annoys me when they hold leon killing me as a āwaste of my loyaltyā to him and thatās a reason why I should want to join them. But I knew what I was getting myself into. I knew killing the saintess would get me executed and frankly I would be more upset if leon didnāt kill me. Wouldnāt have made him a very good king otherwise.

Thanks for the catch! Variable pronouns will be the death of me. Fixed in my private build, will go online soon-ish!
Youāre welcome x) Hope you enjoy the update!
I donāt have the strength to trawl through the codes right now, but Iām relatively certain that that shouldnāt be the case! The best outcome is only possible through selecting the āIāll save everyone, and damn the consequencesā option, as @Valixon said.
There are no POV scenes planned right now, but the letter will definitely be relevant waaay into the future (as in, in the last book hahah). Please look forward to it!
Thanks for the catch! Iāll make sure to keep that in mind in my next round of testing. Any chance you remember which section (generally speaking)?
Any chance you remember when the instance was, specifically? i.e. before meeting the baron, during the baronās scene, after killing/sparing the baron, etc.
Couldāve sworn that Iāve fixed this one - will take another look into it!
Sorry about that one! I couldāve sworn that I fixed the infinite loading screen alreadyā¦my lack of coding skills is really biting me in the arse this update. That is indeed the end of the current demo, though!
High praise! I appreciate it, friend.
Nothingāin this specific instance, anyway. It was the mageās blood being spilled upon the runes that triggered the Lord Dynastās awakening!
This shouldnāt be a problem in the current version, but Iāll make sure to do another replay soon-ish. Sure wish that IF coded itselfā¦thank you for the catch!
Anti-Arcadian options will be relatively reserved for the time being. The idea is that mages who hate Arcadiaās guts will still tread relatively lightly, out of self-/Eli-preservation if nothing else. And while mages who prefer not to be brought back to life are certainly valid, itās really difficult for the story to accommodate them, as I need some kind of forward momentum on their part to move the plot along. As such, the story does assume to some degree that you want to live, and anti-Arcadian options are written with that consideration in mind.
But uh, you get to tell Tahlia to bite you, I guess? And there will certainly be plenty of opportunities to properly slight her nearing endgame. Hope you can bear with the limitations for now!

@Parivir i would like to report a possible bug in the game when i drug the baron with the truth serum at the end of it is we go back to the feast and assault. Is that supposed to happen?

Yea ik and understand (after all i read the description) but thinking of what my MC would do he would hate being resurrected
Edit 1: BTW Which injures/kill more of our team the spirit gate or the zephyros?

"Itās heartening to see our efforts bear fruit. Hearing such accounts makes it easier to come to terms with all that had happened.
Too many people have died due to our incompetence. To find joy in this outcome would be to dance on their corpses.
At any rate, Iām just glad itās overāfor the villagersā sake, as well as for mine."
This are the choices right before it says the cave was blown up even after using waterwynm, I tried putting the screenshot, but itās not letting me.

For your question, Iād have to say the Zephyros route.
Thereās a lot more active fighting in that route, including Razor getting poisoned pretty badly. As for party members dying? I donāt know; Eliās worth protecting them with a temporary truce.

Is there an option to just feel like you want to leave with Eli and not be bothered and retire in a cabin?

Would be a funny comedic easter-egg ending there. Jokes aside though, I donāt think you can, since Thalia pretty much has control over you.

But he did lead us there. So did he knowā¦or at least suspect something like this could happen?
My mc needs a really serious talk with Eliā¦but it needs to be away from the prying ears and eyes of the damned Arcadians.
Imho, it doesnāt matter if it is more or less toxic than the others the mc literally doesnāt have much juice to feed it. So at best its dubious benefits are 1/5th the strength of what they might have been. Way less than is needed to take on any other Arcanist, especially Thalia. And since the other four are still present using magic will likely remain excruciating torture, unless and until the bums can be expelled. But seeing as how even resurrection failed to get rid of them I doubt it is possible for the mc to reverse what Thaubal inflicted on them.
It will also ensure using magic will remain excruciating torture for the mc. 
Maybe not toxic, but the other four parasites will ensure it will be very weak indeed. Or at least very weak compared to what it would be if there werenāt four other parasites siphoning most useful magic out of it. And in general the incompatible parasites seem to make casting even ānormalā magic much more tiring and draining for the mc than it seems to be for just about any other mage.
Plus it this point my mc hates all parasites, including the new one. Unless it can get the other four to bugger off.

This new power should be cool, and assuming itās not as toxic as the other one, it should make things easier when my MC plots his revenge

Fair enough but I want to start weakening Arcadia preaty early so just oin case they have an ace in the future it would make battles easier
It would be better if itās aunt bess inn but itās understandable if not as itās probably the first place they would go to but if all problems are resolved itās retirement Leafās end would be the best choice

I actually have this feeling the new power wonāt be as weak or toxic like the rest that we have the potential to start with and actively use. for lack of a better word it will be " pure " not something like what was forced upon our MCs when they were kids.
Iām very curious to see the next bit of game for it will really define some nebulas thoughts I have right now.
As for Thalia well that confrontation is defintly coming lol exspecially for those who donāt side with the Arcadians
Yet there is this new threat that has our dear Eli in its sights so no easy retirement shall be had for us I think exspecially one that is free for the long term.

WIP is stuck. SPOILER ALERT i donāt know how to flag spoilers BE WARY.
When the MC is seeing the fall of Arcadia, we see the event from the eyes of a Arcadian Lord, who sacrifices himself, and gives his soul to have his unique powers preserved. He grants his powers to an invader knight named Augur. Then we see Augur become a saint by using the powers given to him. Then game stucks, next when i press the next button, itās just unlimited loading screen.

Thatās the end of the demo so far

I definitely was able to choose those two options, however it apparently did not result in the best possible outcome(for me), as some people definitely died, I just assumed wrongly that it was inevitable, my bad.

I finished the current demo a couple of days ago. I enjoyed it very much. I loved the budding romance between the female mc and Leon, it was adorable. But because I wanted to keep my options open I restarted the game so I can have my options open and I know I would be crush given what the opening scene is like lol
Iām kinda glad I did because I also fell in love with Yusuha and Eli lol
When Ilya came to rescue the mc I was so touched she had so much faith because she said, āYouāre the most kindest and compassionate person Iāve ever met.ā I know thatās not the exact saying but still lol
When I went to replay the game I mostly focused on talking to Saine. He felt like my little brother too besides Leonās.
Before we were being reborn I wished we had more time to level up our other abilities. Or maybe itās my fault for focusing on learning.

Thanks for answering, i thought there would be a demo over sign or something.
