Grace — Complete Walkthrough

Character RoutesSimplified Chinese availableV0.9.6.0
Guide noticeThis page contains gameplay and story spoilers and may describe mature systems.

Overview

Grace is the curious 23-year-old novice nun of the Kings Demesne monastery — left as an orphan on the doorstep at birth, raised entirely within the cloister walls, and now quietly questioning whether her "inner light" was meant to stay locked inside. Her arc is the most narratively integrated of any romance character in the medieval era: a multi-plot path from doubt-filled novice to liberated brothel worker, with three heart-to-heart conversations that form a continuous spiritual journey.

When the liberation H2H completes, Grace leaves the monastery and joins your brothel as a worker. After that, her monastery actions disable and she takes on her brothel worker role — assigned to her own room, working 2 PM – 10 PM, with the Missionary special skill.

Where to Find Her (Pre-Liberation)

Grace has the most scattered schedule of any monastery NPC, with four different locations across her day:

1. Scriptorium Lobby (Primary)

  • Hours: 7 AM – 10 AM and 11 AM – 2 PM, every day
  • Note: 10 AM – 11 AM gap to avoid conflict with the monk's prayers
  • Most of her main actions live here

2. Illuminated Manuscript Room

  • Hours: 2 PM – 6 PM, even days only
  • Quiet workplace where she copies religious texts

3. Underground Catacombs

  • Hours: 6 PM – 10 PM, every day
  • Where Grace explores the ancient catacombs (and where her secret meeting plot triggers)

4. Mystic's Meditation Grove

  • Hours: 2 PM – 6 PM on odd days, 8 PM – 12 AM on even days
  • The most narratively important location — where her H2Hs happen
  • Where Grace becomes liberated and joins your brothel

Once she becomes a brothel worker, she disappears from all monastery locations automatically.

  • Give Flowers — 15 min, 1 Flowers item. Known+. Daily limit 2.
  • A Flickering Light (H2H 2) — 30 min. Friend+. Daily limit 1.
  • Where My Light Belongs (H2H 3 — Liberation) — 60 min. Requires 500+ relationship points + Whispers Among the Dead plot completed, 8 PM – 12 AM. Daily limit 1. This activates her as a brothel worker.

Post-Liberation Brothel Conversations

After Grace becomes worker #5, Talk with Grace is also available in the Brothel Kitchen, Worker Rooms, Garden, and Bar. Each version costs 15 minutes and shares the standard five-talk daily limit through the same talk_grace action type.


Relationship Point Values (Per Action)

Action Base Points
Talk +0 (dialogue only)
Give Flowers +5
Spiritual Awareness (one-time) +8
H2H rounds (Beyond Walls) +2 to +4 per choice
H2H rounds (Flickering Light) +1 to +4 per choice
H2H rounds (Liberation) +2 to +5 per choice
Plot rewards +7 to +58 (see below)

Bonus Math (Exact Calculation Order)

The relationship point formula runs in this order:

  1. Start with base points from the action
  2. +1 per favorite stat met (Charm 35, Rogue 40, Perception 35 — up to +3)
  3. × 2 if the player has Seduction skill (her special/favorite skill)
  4. +1 if player owns the "1 Ring" key item
  5. +1 if Cologne buff is active
  6. +1 if Buffer Optimization level is active
  7. +1 chance roll based on Attractiveness (capped at 50%, or 60% with Ornate Locket)

Worked example: Flowers (base 5), all 3 favorite stats met, Seduction learned: (5 + 3) × 2 = 16 points — plus possible +1s from Ring/Cologne/Buffer/Attractiveness.

Min-max tip: Rogue 40 is the unusual stat here — this is the only major NPC favorite-stat that requires Rogue. Worth pushing if you want maximum point efficiency on Grace.


The Plot Chain — Her Liberation Story

Grace's narrative is one of the most layered in the medieval era. Six auto-triggered plots and three H2Hs build to her liberation.

Step 1 — "A Gentle Reminder"

  • Auto-triggers: Scriptorium Lobby, 7 AM – 2 PM, Known stage+
  • The monk (her superior) gently reminds her about her duties
  • Rewards: +4 Monk, +7 Grace, plus choice bonus

Step 2 — "Lost in Translation"

  • Auto-triggers: Manuscript Room, 2-6 PM, even days, Acquaintance+
  • Grace's manuscript work surfaces questions about the outside world
  • Rewards: +4 Monk, +9 Grace, plus choice bonus

Step 3 — "A Mystic's Curiosity"

  • Auto-triggers: Scriptorium Lobby, 7 AM – 2 PM, Friend stage+, Brothel reputation 5+
  • Sashina (the mystic) takes notice of Grace's restlessness
  • Rewards: +14 Grace, +5 Sashina

Step 4 — "A Different Kind of Light"

  • Auto-triggers: Meditation Grove, 1-6 PM, after Step 3
  • Sashina meets Grace in the grove and shares a different perspective on her "inner light" — one where connection with people doesn't dim it but feeds it
  • Rewards: +19 Grace, +10 Sashina (large reward — meaningful turning point)
  • Gates the Liberation H2H

Step 5 — "Whispers Among the Dead"

  • Auto-triggers: Underground Catacombs, 6-10 PM, Crush stage, after Step 4
  • Grace asks you to meet her in secret — she's been thinking deeply
  • Rewards: +58 Grace (the largest single auto-trigger reward in her arc)
  • Gates the Liberation H2H

Step 6 — "Where My Light Belongs" (Liberation H2H — manual)

  • Trigger: Meditation Grove action, 8 PM – 12 AM, requires 500+ rel + Whispers Among the Dead completed
  • An 8-round cinematic H2H — see "Heart-to-Heart Conversations" below
  • Activates Grace as a brothel worker before the H2H even begins
  • After completion, her monastery schedule disables and she takes on her brothel role

Heart-to-Heart Conversations

Grace has three H2Hs that form a connected emotional arc.

H2H 1 — "Life Beyond the Walls"

  • Requires: Acknowledged stage
  • 4 rounds: she asks why you keep visiting → opens up about Keeper teachings of the "inner light" → asks you to describe something real about the outside world → admits her light flickers differently than the others
  • Special choices: Reading People (round 1), Empathy (round 2 + 4), Storytelling (round 3)
  • Theme: First curiosity. The seeds of doubt about isolation.

H2H 2 — "A Flickering Light"

  • Requires: Friend stage
  • 5 rounds: found crying alone in the grove → the elders gave her until the new moon to take final vows → she describes her flickering inner light → fears both choices → genuine gratitude for being heard
  • Special choices: Empathy (rounds 1, 3, 4), Reading People (round 2)
  • Theme: The crisis. She has a deadline. The pressure is real.

H2H 3 — "Where My Light Belongs" (Liberation)

  • Requires: 500+ relationship points + Whispers Among the Dead completed
  • Time: 8 PM – 12 AM at Meditation Grove
  • 8 rounds: stargazing meeting → her decision → she asks to join your brothel → first kiss → her request to learn passion → the beginning → the climax → aftermath where she vows to come to you
  • Mechanically: Activates her as a brothel worker (the H2H starts after recruitment runs)
  • Theme: Liberation. She joins your establishment willingly. The Keeper teachings reframed: connection nurtures the inner light rather than dimming it.

Why this is unique: Most NPCs who become brothel workers do so via a recruitment plot. Grace's recruitment plays out as an 8-round intimate H2H where she gives you her first time. It's both a romance climax and her liberation from the monastery — narratively the same moment.


The Date — Nature Walk

Esperanza, Mindy, and others have polished date plots; Grace's is more intimate and grounded.

Nature Walk Date

  • Acquaintance+ stage, 120 min, −40 energy, 8 AM – 2 PM
  • Available at Scriptorium Lobby
  • One-time
  • Take Grace on a walk outside the monastery walls — for her, this is a major step

Grace appears in three notable cross-character plots:

Plot Trigger Co-Stars Notes

Phase 6: Crush → 500+ Points

  • Working hours: 2 PM – 10 PM
  • Starting skill: Meditation (already known)
  • Special skill: Missionary
  • Her brothel actions are governed by the standard worker management system

Relationship Stages & Dialogue Tone

Grace's dialogue arc traces the full novice-to-liberated journey. She begins formal and curious, becomes vulnerable and self-doubting, then arrives at certainty after Sashina's intervention.

Stage Tone Highlights
Stranger Formal, curious, "Peace be with you"
Acknowledged Real curiosity surfaces, asks about the world
Known Begins to share doubts
Acquaintance Trusts the player with deeper questions
Friend Crying alone in the grove, vulnerable
Close Friend Speaks of her flickering light
Crush Decision point — the secret meeting, Sashina's wisdom
Romantic / Intimate Liberation imminent / completed

Brothel Worker Profile (Post-Liberation)

Once Grace becomes a brothel worker, her stats are:

  • Stamina: 18, Intelligence: 25, Dexterity: 14, Ability: 8
  • Appearance: 20, Charisma: 16
  • Special skill: Missionary
  • Starting skill: Meditation
  • Clothing level: 2
  • Working hours: 2 PM – 10 PM
  • Base wage: 110g
  • Fame: 6
  • Loyalty: 50 (starting)
  • Assigned to her own room (requires minimum room level 2)

The "monastery novice with earthly desires" archetype shapes her brothel worker dialogue and reactions.


Tips & Optimal Play

  • Her daily Talk gives 0 base points — Talk pushes the stage progression but isn't a grind action. Use Flowers (Known+) for actual point gain.
  • Her 4 locations are not simultaneous — she moves through them on a strict schedule. Plan your visits accordingly to maximize daily Talk + Flowers across them.
  • Spiritual Awareness gives free +1 Perception permanent — needs Comm 40 and Known stage. Don't miss it; Perception 35 is also her favorite stat.
  • Brothel reputation 5 is a soft gate — without it, the Sashina arc never starts. Push brothel reputation in parallel.
  • Rogue 40 is her unusual favorite stat — most NPCs use Charm/Strength/Stamina. Worth investing in Rogue for her bonuses.
  • The Liberation H2H is a one-way door — once you run it, Grace leaves the monastery permanently. Don't trigger it until you're ready to convert her to brothel worker mode.
  • Plot rewards stack massively — her 6-plot auto-trigger chain awards +7+9+14+19+58 = +107 relationship points just from plots, before any gifts or H2Hs.
  • Seduction skill doubles all her points — uniquely fitting for a former nun discovering passion. Keep it learned.
  • The +500 point Liberation gate is achievable with chained plot rewards + daily gifts + H2H 1/2 completions.

Content Status

  • Development Priority: Sufficient (High development tier)
  • Pre-Liberation Romance: ✓ Complete (3 H2Hs + 1 date + 6 auto-plots)
  • Brothel Conversion: ✓ Active worker after Liberation H2H
  • Animations: None as monastery NPC; brothel worker animations through standard worker system
  • Skill Teaching: None directly (Spiritual Awareness gives +1 Perception)
  • Cross-Character Integration: Sashina (recruitment), Monk (warning), Esperanza + Aziza (magic plot), Blinky, Fernando

Grace is feature-complete as of the current build, with the most narratively integrated romance-to-worker conversion arc in the game.

  • Sirena Isle: She can join a resort vacation (paid content) and is available for the repeatable evening Sunset Walk H2H on the resort beach (5-8 PM).
