Update 24.08.27

Update 24.08.27 changes:

- The main story now advances when you talk with Varea in Manastyr or the sleeping chambers.
It'll give you the connection from the present time to the time skip area, which isn't fully done yet, but has some new content.
- New dialog in act 1 with the vanguard forces.
- New dialog in act 1 with Flaire near Thremten (when she is on her good route)
- New dialog in act 1 with the Orchel elves after the racism quest is done.
- New dialog in act 1 with Sparky near The Black Twin Towers of Honor when you finished her riddle and brawl battle with Brad.
- New dialog in act 1 with Demoness at the Spire of Courage when you finished her events with Naevy.
- New dialog in act 1 with the raiders at the Spire of Courage when you defeated the fire raid at least once.
- New dialog in act 1 with Libelle in Aldlyn when you have her CG scene done.
- New dialog in act 1 with Aiyana in the forest south of Red Keep (if you returned Eagle and had the scene with Flora)
- New dialog in act 1 with Mozaik and Pandora at Tabsy's big farm. Requires their previous events.
- New dialog in act 1 with Cassedy in Witton after finishing the good or bad route with the Luminous Order.
- New dialog in act 1 with Ziki at Ironholm Prison when the events with her and Shanna are done.
- New dialog in act 1 with Lucilla in the forest in the north of Dorgania, west of Havaria Port. This dialog will unlock a new event in the same spot in act 2.

In the new area in act 2, Thiro's dungeon, you can currently do 5 challenges with:
- The original 6 vanguard leaders.
- Sparky. (After the challenge of Sparky is done, talk with her again for a CG scene.)
- Lady Akira, Kurohime, and Citrinne.
- Shanna, Naomi, and Ziki.
- Jackie, Lexi, Jenny, and Flaire when she is on her good route.
[Once all challenges are done, you can get a battle and CG scene with Thiro.]

- A new accessory was added, which gives the character who equips it triple experience from battles. (Experience gained from events or quests is not affected.)
You can get one on the first map of the easy dungeon in the Spire of Courage, and Aiyana can give you three more in act 1 of the time skip events. For Aiyana's dialog to appear in act 1, you need to be on her good path and finish her scene with Flora first.

- The lore about races in Ellanore's dialog was changed, and a few images were added to show and explain the new categories and the life spans of the different races better.

- Fixed a problem with Alcena's squad's ability to attack twice per turn.
- Fixed a bug with Akai's "Steam Gun" quest, which prevented the quest to finish and advance properly sometimes. If you encountered the bug, going back into Akai's workshop will automatically fix the issue and set the quest to complete when entering the building through the door.

 Planned for the next update:
- A new character for the brothel.
- Act 1 event to get the support of the Thanka oni family and hellhound village.
- An event with full body CGs for the farmers Amara and Tabsy, which might also include some goblins.
