Hello,
are there actually RO’s?
Here I am!
Sorry, everyone, to keep you waiting.
@Nexus_Knight, thank you again for your advice. I did my best to fix the issues. I hope it works now.
@Brainb, thank you for your support. I am doing my best as a “non-professional” author to deliver the best possible product asap. So glad you appreciate my efforts 
@Nathan_Verou welcome! Yes, I planned at least one RO. If I have time and the community asks for them, I could implement more (I already envisioned them, I just need time to develop those branches in the story). How did you like the story so far? Which ROs would you want me to create? Let us know
As always, thank you, everyone, for your support. It really matters.

I love the story! I had lot of fun, though I am a big sucker for romance so waiting excited!
Maybe make gender locked Ro’s? I noticed that when a RO is a selectable gender there’s no much change in how they act and etc, I prefer when they’re gender locked as its a lot more … idk, personality? (Personally I am a sucker for hot cold RO who only warms to you heh, especially a prince 
)
Also, will this story turn nsfw later on or it will stay all ages?
Anyways thank you for your BIG work, I have been sad recently and your story has helped me a lot to stay happy.

Hi @Nathan_Verou
Thank you for your hints. I will think it over and see what I can do to improve the story and romances.
I guess for now I’ll keep the story “all ages”, but I am open to changes.
I am particularly happy to know my little work helped your mood. Stay happy, life is beautiful. And for the little moments when life sucks, there’s always fantasy

Hello, made an account just for this game! So I liked a lot the first chapter, but then I noticed that there may not be much romance right now, as it was said up there… Can you keep us updated about the romance routes (and also if you will add adult content later on?). I hope I am not bothering!

Hi @Deirdre_Lilin ! I am honored to know it was my game to bring you into this fantastic community! Browse around; you’ll find a lot of great games here, way better than mine 
When I started writing, I planned way more romances. The more the story developed, the more I decided to focus on the fantasy/mystery/philosophical aspect. This limited the romance options a bit.
Currently, romance options are as follows [SPOILER AHEAD!]
-You can romance the Theurge you will escort on the pilgrimage (you have to wait until chapter 3 to meet them)
-You can romance one of the main antagonists, Moanna (you have to wait more to meet them).
- You can romance no one.
As for the “adult content”, I didn’t put any so far in the story. If you would like more “adult content,” please let me know. So far, nobody has asked for it, so I guess people were ok with the story the way it is.
I am open to suggestions/improvements/hints, so please keep them coming!
As always, thank you, everyone, for playing my game. Having such a great community to interact with is a great pleasure and honor.

Ohh we can romance an antagonist?! I already know who’s going to be my goal hehe (if they’re gender is selectable)
And don’t worry about the adult content! It’s just me who should go to the horny jail I guess, sorry, kinda excited to start the game and have fun :3

Hi @stan_loona ! Welcome and thank you for playing!
First of all, congratulations for arriving in Shangri-la!
The game wants to simulate the frustration of Samsara, the eternal cycle of rebirths, that’s why some situations may seem frustrating.
But never despair, there is always a way out!
Little hint: did you see Maya’ s face behind the mask? If so, you have a chance to escape Samsara when the dream begins anew.
When asked, choose the right ‘name’ and you’re out!
Let me know if this little hint is enough. If you need more assistance just ask.

Hi @Damien 
Thank you for playing!
Here’s a (hopefully!) complete walkthrough on how to exit Samsara.
SPOILERS AHEAD!
Step 1: Reach Chapter 20 with the following stats (at least two must apply)
-Low Orthodox / High Divergent
-High Egocentric / Low selfless
-Low Visionary/High Pragmatist
Step 2: If you have the right stats, this option will be available when you talk with Maya:
Choose it. The option that says you will look for a 'different way to defeat Karma.
You will see Maya’s face as a Gorgon /Medusa.
Step 3: The ‘dream’ will apparently start again, BUT you will have the chance to escape it from now on.
When asked for the “curious name resounding in your head”, select the name that will appear under Kannon and before Moanna.
In this case, the right option would be “Skyball Playershiva”, but I’m sure YOUR option will be different 
Step 4: Congratulations, you now became an Arhat, an ‘awakened one’. Beware not fall into the sleeping prison again
I hope everything is clear.
If anyone needs further assistance, please ask.
By the way, I ask this question to everyone: was it too difficult to figure out how to ‘exit’ the loop? Do we need to make it easier? How would you suggest we make it?
Sorry for keeping you all waiting.
