Major Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→A Deal with the Devil Choices
Hearing Brencis out keeps the deal available. Marking the Manumit hideout is the later betrayal commitment; rejecting him leads toward a hostile route.
Quest Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→Force-Feed Esme or Refuse
Helping Pieter or refusing changes the opening scene. Both branches lead to getting herbs from Anca; the later medicine recipe is the important survival decision.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Burn Leonica's Notes or Give Them to Anca
Both decisions keep Anca’s next quest available. Let her continue for the reported convent cure, or burn the notes to reject another pact.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Let Anca Finish Leonica's Ritual?
Letting Anca use Leonica's research continues the attempted cure for the nuns. It does not block Between the Words, Anca's broader questline, or the ability to romance her. Refusing and burning the notes also preserves those major paths.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Help Father Florin or Refuse
Agreeing to work with Father Florin opens A Hero's End and gives a route to Greifberg Castle's side entrance. Refusing is reversible: Coen can return and accept later while Florin lives. Killing Florin permanently closes his alliance route, though the Ancient Key can be looted and the ruins/armor content can still be accessed.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Ocha Choices and Outcomes
1. Retrieve Andrei's memento: the ring is correct. 2. Decide whether to follow the ritual or attack. 3. Resolve Nora's danger; a hidden/inaction option can enter Nora's death outcome. 4. Meet Ocha by the river and advise what she should do next.
Character Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→Should You Invite Ambrus In?
Invite Ambrus if you want his voice and commentary during the rest of the game plus limited help in the final fight. Refuse if Coen would condemn him to Anachora for his crimes. The choice does not change abilities or Corruption.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Kill Andrei or Follow Ocha's Plan
There is no confirmed branch where Andrei remains alive at the end of the documented quest. Coen can attack him, use the wrong memento and fight him, or use the correct ring so Ocha's spell causes him to kill himself.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Stay Silent or Say “No! Stop!”
Say “No! Stop!” for the safe, explicit intervention that keeps Catalin alive at this decision. Staying silent is conditional on an earlier Marat state and can result in Marat or Catalin dying.
Verified September 6, 2026
→Save Marat or Catalin
The throne-room result depends on Coen's response and an earlier Marat condition. The safest documented action is “No! Stop!”, which preserves Catalin at this moment and avoids relying on the hidden silent branch.
Romance Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→Stay With Anca or Go
Stay for the optional Page-Turner quest and its reported 100 XP if you can spare one extra time segment. Leave if preserving that segment matters more.

→Anca Romance Choices — Checklist
Useful flirt/context choices include staying to study Latin, insisting on the red-cover Catullus book, choosing “kisses” and “grains of sand,” helping with her wound, and choosing warm lines in Between the Words and Where Old Devils Lie.
Ending Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→Mark the Hideout or Leave
Marking the Manumit hideout commits the Brencis deal sequence and leads toward the Turncoat route. Leaving does not commit the deal at that point and preserves flexibility.

Plan the seven named outcomes, their route requirements, and the world states reflected in each epilogue.
Missable Choices
Verified September 6, 2026
→Ring, Cleaver, or Pendant?
Give Ocha Andrei's Ring. It is the correct memento for the amnesia ritual. The cleaver and pendant are wrong.
