Overview

Terra is the botanist at the Future Prime Sector's Mutated Botanical Preserve. Her current route includes ordinary Talk and Flowers, Material Science instruction, ten automatic personal scenes, three heart-to-hearts, two dates, a medicinal specimen gift and optional Fortress army recruitment.
This guide gives the practical gates and best replies while leaving the broader archive discoveries and story outcomes to the game.

Quick Stats and Availability

Detail Value
Age / era / alignment 28 / Future / Good
Home portrait Mutated Botanical Preserve, Prime Sector
Schedule 6 AM–6 PM every day
Favorite stats Intelligence80; Perception80; Creativity70
Special relationship skill Material Science
Favorite gift Flowers
Some later automatic events occur at the Processing Zone or Archive Facility. Their own listed windows apply there, rather than the ordinary home portrait's hours.
Listed relationship rewards are base values. Favorite stats add bonuses when their thresholds are met, and the special relationship skill doubles the adjusted base before the shared random roll. Equipment, buffs and alignment can further change the final reward. Raising affection does not replace quest flags or earlier heart-to-hearts.
Read Plant Stress is the fixed direct affection award marked below. Learning Material Science also supplies Terra's special relationship bonus for later ordinary calculated rewards.

Ordinary Actions and Lessons

Action Requirements Cost Actual result
Talk to Terra Stranger 15 minutes 1 actual base; three daily
Give Flowers Known; one Flowers 10 minutes; consumes one Flowers 5 base; five daily
Living Substrates Known; Intelligence19; Material Science not already learned 180 minutes; $200; 50 Energy; 25 Calm Learn Material Science and 10 base; once because learned skill hides it
Read Plant Stress Friend; Intelligence35 45 minutes; 12 Energy; 5 Calm Perception +1 and 8 direct affection; once
Living Substrates has no paid-version gate. Its 10 base is recorded after the skill is learned; it is not a second lesson reward on top of another generic 10. Flowers use a fixed 5 base at all eligible stages.
  1. Visit the Preserve during 6 AM–6 PM for Unnatural Selection, then use daily Talk to build the early stages.
  2. At Known, use Flowers and learn Material Science if needed. Claim Read Plant Stress at Friend with Intelligence35.
  3. Follow the automatic route table below. The Seed She Named opens after One Unapproved Seed; Beauty Without a Metric follows One Living Thing and the first heart-to-heart.
  4. At Crush, visit the Processing Zone for Beneath the Processing Zone, then return to Terra for After the Survey. This third heart-to-heart unlocks both optional dates.
  5. Continue at the Archive Facility after completing recovered archive entry 6, then finish the later story/relationship gates for The First Unmeasured Plot and What We Keep.
  6. After The First Unmeasured Plot, select Help Defend the Fortress if you want her army unit. At In Love after What We Keep, accept A Familiar Scent for Willow's medicine research.

Automatic Personal Route

Each scene occurs once when you enter its location with all listed conditions met. No separate action money, Energy or time cost is configured. The totals combine completion and best-choice base affection.
Scene in order Place / window Gate Best reply Base reward
Unnatural Selection Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM No affection or earlier-scene gate Flirty 3 +3 =6
Forty Percent More Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM Acknowledged; Unnatural Selection completed Caring 4 +4 =8
Genetic Reference Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM Known; preceding scene completed Flirty 5 +5 =10
One Unapproved Seed Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM Acquaintance; preceding scene completed Caring 6 +6 =12
The Missing Half Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM Friend; preceding scene completed Caring 7 +6 =13
One Living Thing Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM Close Friend; preceding scene completed Funny 8 +6 =14
Beneath the Processing Zone Industrial Waste Processing Zone, 8 AM–6 PM Crush; One Living Thing completed Caring 9 +7 =16
The Forest in the File Modified Historical Archive Facility, 8 AM–8 PM Romantic; Beneath the Processing Zone, After the Survey and recovered archive entry 6 completed Caring 10 +7 =17
The First Unmeasured Plot Industrial Waste Processing Zone, 8 AM–6 PM Intimate; The Forest in the File and Story Beat 35 completed; Terra and Ghost home Flirty 12 +9 =21 Terra; Ghost2 completion
What We Keep Botanical Preserve, 6 AM–6 PM In Love; The First Unmeasured Plot completed Caring 15 +10 =25


The automatic chain does not require the first two heart-to-hearts as additional plot gates; the third is explicitly required for The Forest in the File. The first two are nevertheless prerequisites for that third heart-to-heart.
For the archive gate, successfully Hack Archive Terminal, then read the recovered version of entry 6, Component Lifecycle Management. The ordinary pre-hack version is a separate plot and does not satisfy this requirement. This identifies the menu action without repeating its revelations.

Heart-to-Heart Requirements and Answers

All three are one-time actions at Terra's home portrait, 6 AM–6 PM, with no paid-version or higher-power gate. Calm restoration respects the current cap.
Conversation Requirements Cost / restoration Maximum base
The Seed She Named Friend; One Unapproved Seed completed 75 minutes; 15 Energy; Calm +8 73
Beauty Without a Metric Close Friend; One Living Thing and The Seed She Named completed 90 minutes; 20 Energy; Calm +10 84
After the Survey Crush; Beneath the Processing Zone and Beauty Without a Metric completed 90 minutes; 20 Energy; Calm +15 101

The Seed She Named

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 You are allowed to care beyond what the criteria can defend. 11
2 Then Mara is the first seed here someone chose to know. 13
3 Caring makes the risk heavier, not less rational. 15
4 Trust me with the reason. I will keep it with you. 17
5 Stay with her until the first check is complete. 17


Beauty Without a Metric

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 Beauty can matter without pretending to be medicine. 13
2 Then tonight someone gets to see it exactly as it is. 15
3 I want the parts of you that no report can explain. 18
4 Then come closer and stop trying to list me. 19
5 Share the quiet with her. 19


After the Survey

Round Highest base-point choice Base points
1 You trusted me with this before the report. I like being the person you wanted beside you. 17
2 Then this moment belongs to us before it belongs to the fight. 18
3 What grows between us is ours because we both keep choosing it. 21
4 Then choose the imperfect kiss with me. 22
5 Hold the moment gently with her. 23


Heart-to-heart choice points accumulate and use the shared relationship calculation at completion. The listed points are base values, not guaranteed final affection gains.
Highest choice totals are 11 +13 +15 +17 +17 =73, 13 +15 +18 +19 +19 =84, and 17 +18 +21 +22 +23 =101 base, with no extra completion base. The player's Romantic skill adds a fixed 25 final affection after the normal calculation. None configures NPC intimacy or player Erotic experience, including the kisses in the later conversations.

Optional Higher-Point Answers

These special answers appear when their listed skill or stat requirement is met. Choose the unlocked special answer in that round for the higher base reward below. The ordinary answers still complete the conversation; these points enter the same affection calculation as other H2H choices.
Heart-to-heart Round Special-answer requirement Base points
The Seed She Named 2 Perception 35+ 15 instead of 13
Beauty Without a Metric 2 Empathy skill 17 instead of 15
After the Survey 2 Empathy skill 20 instead of 18


Optional Dates

Both dates require Crush and After the Survey completed, occur once, and have no explicit paid-version or higher-power gate. Invite Terra from the Preserve portrait.
Date Other gate / invitation window Cost / restoration Maximum base
Skygarden Date 8 AM–4 PM 120 minutes; $80; 30 Energy; Calm +15 15 choices +8 completion =23
Memory Arcade Date Beneath the Processing Zone completed; noon–6 PM 120 minutes; $100; 35 Energy; Calm +10 15 choices +10 completion =25
For each date, Caring or Flirty is best for question1, Caring or Funny for question2, and Funny or Flirty for question3. Each best reply gives5 base. These are ordinary plot rewards, without the heart-to-heart Romantic completion bonus; no NPC intimacy or player Erotic experience is configured.

Skygarden Best Replies

Question Best reply(s) Base bonus
1 “Maybe designed spaces can still leave room for living choices.” / “I already brought the most beautiful thing in the garden.” 5
2 “You are allowed to want something before proving it is useful.” / “Careful. Today a drink, tomorrow an unauthorized pastry.” 5
3 “I stop controlling things constantly. Usually by accident.” / “I trust you most when you stop controlling how much you want me.” 5


Memory Arcade Best Replies

Question Best reply(s) Base bonus
1 “You can mourn what was lost without accepting the replacement.” / “Whatever they show us, I am here for the real woman beside me.” 5
2 “A perfect memory is still a poor substitute for a living future.” / “Add one furious goose. Every honest meadow needs a tyrant.” 5
3 “The future also has us, which gives it an unfair advantage.” / “I prefer every future that ends with you coming home with me.” 5


Help Defend the Fortress

After The First Unmeasured Plot completed, choose Help Defend the Fortress at Terra's home portrait. This opens Something Worth Defending and occurs once. It has zero configured time, no recruitment fee, no extra item or affection-stage requirement beyond that earlier milestone, and no extra ordinary affection or NPC intimacy reward.
The completed plot acquires Terra as a Fortress army hero. Its replies converge on the recruitment completion. This is separate from a brothel-worker recruitment route and separate from What We Keep; the In Love finale is not an additional requirement.
Army deployment uses the Fortress system's own resources; her current base deployment cost is 40 Command and 10 Ammo. Those are deployment costs, not a fee charged by the recruitment conversation.

A Familiar Scent and Willow's Medicine Research

At In Love, after What We Keep, choose A Familiar Scent at the Preserve 6 AM–6 PM, while Terra is home. It takes 20 minutes, once, with no extra money, Energy or gift consumption.
You must not already hold or have delivered the Memorymint Runners specimen. Completing the scene grants the specimen key item, rather than directly increasing Medicine. Caring and Flirty give 3 choice base; Funny gives2. No fixed completion affection or NPC intimacy/player experience reward is configured.
Deliver the specimen to Willow through her medicine-research hand-in to receive that system's reward. Receiving Terra's gift and delivering it are separate steps. Once obtained or handed in, her gift is not a repeatable source of duplicates.

Troubleshooting and Current Scope

  • Terra is missing: visit the Prime Sector Preserve between 6 AM and 6 PM.
  • Living Substrates is missing: check Known, Intelligence19 and whether Material Science is already learned.
  • The route stops at One Living Thing: go to the Processing Zone at Crush, 8 AM–6 PM.
  • After the Survey is missing: complete Beneath the Processing Zone and Beauty Without a Metric, with Crush.
  • The archive scene is missing: reach Romantic, complete After the Survey, and read recovered entry6 after a successful archive hack.
  • The First Unmeasured Plot is missing: finish The Forest in the File and Story Beat35, reach Intimate and keep Terra/Ghost home, then visit the Processing Zone in its window.
  • The army action is missing: complete The First Unmeasured Plot and return to Terra's home portrait; completed recruitment disappears.
  • The medicine gift is missing: reach In Love, complete What We Keep, and check you neither hold nor delivered Memorymint Runners.
  • Affection rose but no intimacy gallery unlocked: Terra currently has no NPC intimacy gallery assets; her listed conversations do not configure that experience. No apartment/video romance or brothel-worker training route is registered.

Credits and Current Scope

Verified against current Terra handlers, dynamic army registration, personal plot and archive gates, heart-to-hearts, dates, medicine-source installation and completed-plot army acquisition. Existing portrait and house style are preserved; major archive findings and later story outcomes are omitted.
