■ Path Actions
Path Actions let you perform various actions on people you meet during your journey.
In this game, the actions that can be taken will vary based on your influence and peoples’ values: Wealth, Power, or Fame.
For those who value wealth, you can “Purchase” from or “Hire” them with money.
For those who value power, you can “Contend” against or “Impress” them through combat.
For those who value fame, the success rates of “Entreat” and “Recruit” change based on your influence.
If someone wishes to relocate, you can also “Invite” them to welcome them to your town.

■ Amity Levels
Once you develop the town to a certain level, amity levels become unlocked.
Amity levels indicate the level of closeness between the protagonist and their companions. You can raise them by using the “Inquire Further” Path Action in Wishvale.
Raising amity levels allows you to obtain more valuable items and enhances the capabilities of Resident Skills.
Sometimes special items like a character’s favorite food will be needed, so make full use of your travel knowledge.
■ Party Chat
Party Chat refers to conversation events that occur between your companions based on story progression and various situations.
You can enjoy exchanges that offer glimpses into the bonds and personalities of the characters, as well as the sentiments between them.
If you miss any, you can still view them from the main menu, so take a look whenever you’re curious.
■ Adventure at Sea
Once aboard the ship, you can freely sail the vast ocean.
Discover the mystical Middlesea and the dangerous Outersea.
There, you may encounter uncharted islands and unknown creatures.
Where you set sail is entirely up to you.
Set forth on an adventure at sea to experience a journey unlike any on land.
