If you are booting up A King's Bane -Ongoing- - Version- 0.3 Part 2 for the first time, here is how to navigate the opening of the new chapter:
Starting Point: Load a save from the end of Version 0.3 Part 1 (where you flee Tor's Fall via the sewers). If you don't have a save, the game now offers a "Chapter Recap Quiz" that lets you reconstruct critical choices.
The Verdantwood Dilemma (First 30 minutes): Upon entering the forest, you meet a merchant named Elara who offers a deal: a safe passage in exchange for a "piece of your shadow." Accepting gives you +2 Stealth but locks you out of the "Pure Light" ending. Refusing triggers a survival check.
The Tribunal (The Centerpiece): For best results: Have at least 25 points in "Cunning" before this scene. Also, ensure your relationship with the druid character "Thorn" is above 10. Without these, the Tribunal will default to a combat encounter, which is significantly harder in 0.3 Part 2.
