About
Elara comes to Port Nocturne broke and out of options, chasing the recipe for a Grand Panacea that might save her dying mother. The Alchemist Guild has rules for that sort of thing, and the city has none.
She can stay inside the lines with Justiciar Kaelen and the Guild's slow, regulated path, or take shortcuts through the Velvet Syndicate's underworld deals, illicit brews, and the kind of favors that cost more than coin. Either way, Port Nocturne expects payment, and Elara's dignity is one of the currencies on the table.
Day to day, you're running Elara's alchemy work: brewing recipes, managing what little money she has, and picking which patron or which vice she leans on to keep going. Choices accumulate into a corruption track that shifts what scenes and paths open up, so the version of Elara who survives the Guild Ball looks nothing like the one who survives the Syndicate's underbelly.
Changelog
- Spy Dust and other new recipes now show up in the Alchemy Workbench when you load an older save.
- By Tooth and Claw — fixed a crash when choosing Watch at Mirri's hideout. The option now appears correctly once Elara reaches Tainted corruption (15+).

- ### What's New
- The Rusty Anchor Tavern** — Work as a waitress: earn gold, endure harassment and propositions. First-time work gets you a "fitting" in the back room, a green dress and corset, then your first shift. Night shifts bring a rougher crowd. Walk home drunk and you might get jumped in the alley. Spend 5 gold for rumors (hidden grove, Syndicate inspections).
- Forest Lake** — A new discoverable location. Find it while foraging. What could go wrong?
- Scene Gallery** — 13 scenes to unlock from the main menu. Locked ones show hints. Unlocks stay across playthroughs.
- Android** — Play on your phone. APK is now available.
- ### New Scenes (8)
- Tavern Measurements — bartender gropes Elara during fitting
- Alley Assault — walking home drunk from the tavern
- Street Assault — sleeping on the street (homeless)
- Midnight Relief — stress relief at night when Corruption is high
- Forest Lake Tentacles — tentacle encounter at the hidden lake
- Ass Slap — tavern patron slaps Elara's rear
- Tavern Merchant BJ — blowjob in tavern waitress outfit
- Elara/Lila — seduction at Canvas Docks (Succubus Essence)
- ### Improvements

- **Brewing** — New minigame: click bubbles, manage temperature. Skip option available. First-time tutorial.
- **Stats** — Active Effects (buffs/debuffs) show on the Stats screen.
