Does anyone know how to romance the empress

Can someone explain how to get the laqcur, jade and emerald tablets.
I don’t think you can romance the Empress in Labyrinth. IIRC, you CAN flirt with her during the banquet. I have a vague recollection of hearing she’ll be romanceable in the sequel, the Unconquerable Scorpion, but don’t quote me on that.

I managed to get all the tablets except the last one, lacquer (but when I played the game was bugged and the Condor representative acted as if I had gotten it, dunno if it’s been fixed by now, but probably not because I have the game installed and I don’t think I got any updates), so I might be able to help here, but I need to know what’s your difficulty in getting them. Do you not get contacted by the Condors, or is it something else?

Who exactly are the Condors of Patabesh? They don’t have a codex entry unlike the gardeners. Can you still join them despite refusing to perform their tasks and what might that entail…
From what I understood, the Condors are the thieves’ guild of Patabesh (a wretched hive of scum and villainy) and devotees of Amri/Amiri in her aspect of the patron of thieves. I have a VAGUE recollection that they’re thought extinct?
I don’t think you can join them if you refuse to perform the tasks (namely, acquiring or, at least, TRYING to acquire tablets inscribed with powerful secrets, though getting in while just trying might be a bug). It wouldn’t make much sense; if you refuse to work with them, why would they let you join? If you don’t want to work with them, why would you WANT to join?
Weird. I never got THAT option. Mine was to stay in the city and work with the Condors, and by “work with the Condors” I mean take over the local chapter via a metric crapton of fake identities so that people think there’s like 50 criminal masterminds and not, well, just me. Though, to be fair, I’m pretty sure I ran into a bug, because I failed to get the last tablet but I still somehow handed that tablet I never got over to the Condor representative after keeping it with me all through the events of the the SS Cockblocker worldship.
Why it seemed especially weird to me was because I performed non of their tasks and actually fought them so a surprise to see that pathway still on.

Hm, looks like a bug of some kind. Or maybe 2-3 overlapping bugs. I’m going to recheck the tablets/Condors material in the first game as I wait for copy edits on the second.
Aha, yes! I see both of the problems here. Bad *gotos for one, and a missing variable for another. We should have a revised version in time for everyone’s Great Southern Labyrinth to Unconquerable Scorpion bridge-game.

Bad gotos are the worst, I once ate one that I found at the back of the fridge and got code poisoning.

Anyone tell me to how to ro or start the ro with the empress? I got the she thinks I’m useful but nothing more ranking 
You can’t RO the empress in Labyrinth, only in Scorpion. If you want to raise her relationship score, I’d wager you need to spend time with her during the banquet.

I have been wondering with the next sequel coming when is the save feature going to be added to pon para
The save feature has been in for months, though? It was already there the first time I played.
EDIT: Does anyone know what the second-time bonus from Amiri gives? Specifically, is one of the options (Veil of Nethara, I think) + Bearing OR + Bearing and + Diplomat?
EDIT 2: I’ve found at least ONE thing the patch fixed! The game no longer thinks I’ve gotten the Lacquer Tablet even if I haven’t!

I can’t purchase Love and Shadows in the COG Android app. I tap “Buy It Now for $0.99 USD” and nothing happens.
I was finally able to get it by restoring my purchase of the game in my browser, purchasing the IAP in the browser, then restoring my purchases in the app.
