Well, I obviously omitted that I would have a few more updates.
With this batch of updates, several new features have been added.
Enara is now recruitable at the Winterholme Inn if you have the DLC for A Short Adventure. She is a Spellsword/Spellbade class. She uses magic to enhance her martial abilities with a wooden sword.
Initially, being able to select to have both the Male and Female Briar in the party was a test feature that I left in the DLC version of the game. This eventually evolved into them getting different names to tell them apart [Ives and Maple]. It is now available in the base game [although, they both are the same class (Guardian)].
When both are picked up, you will be prompted to designate which you are a playing as [This will help going forward when new zones and quest areas are released]. If you've already found both Ives and Maple, and have them in your party, the diagnostic tool [see below] will be able to make the appropriate adjustments [Protag Select and Character Restoration].
If you haven't found it in the DLC yet, there is a box in the barracks when you enter the simulation portal in Citra's basement. This will allow you to pick up the other Briar and select their class.
If you're just attempting it without the DLC, there is a book at the end of the puzzle room [if you go the wrong way through the last maze].
What started out as a gag feature has turned into its own questline. In an attempt show to how they both came to be, Ives and Maple are now recruitable party members for Luminous Skies: The Piligrimage. This instance of time travel should be *mostly* fine [so long as they don't disrupt any major events]. Each character can swap between two classes [Ives: Spellsword and Shepherd] [Maple: Spellsword and Druid].
While you're here, please enjoy our Chirstmas Themed Holiday events. For those playing A Short Adventure, festive decorations can be activated by going to the Winterholme inn. And those who have the Pilgrimage, the same can be done at the Frostwind inn and this also activates a winter themed dungeon to explore.
Patch Notes:
