Features
- Performance: Another huge performance improvement - one that should herald the end of the black box forever (Tosk).

- Dynamic: Young Malice spends some quality time with her cosmic godmother (Dreamweaver request, collab with Mattrex).

- Dynamic: if Malagar appears while Darja is unhappy or gifted to a horde, you will have an opportunity to correct your prior misjudgement.
- Dynamic: Issa finds an ancient treasure (collab with Maya Fae and Julia).

Tweaks
- Roost redecoration scenes will always trigger if you change consort during Act IV. As a side effect, this means they will trigger a second time if you reload midway through an old save.
- Asking Marie-Anne for shelter in Act II will allow you to peacefully recruit her in Act III.
- Malice's last night will play out differently if Valzira is her mother, or the words of power have not been encountered.
- Sprites for Issa, Malagar, Mother, and Zizeryx have been tweaked so that they are in proportion with other characters (Painted artstyle only, for now).
- Maelys's animated battle poses have been converted to the more modern 'stripped' state.
- Malice can be given a complimentary name when Heloise asks for it.
- Chanwe no longer takes her robes off when visiting her at the convent.
- All character images are reset to their default state at the start of the character AMA.
- Darja's Infernal Fate has been renamed as 'The Dragon Princess'.
- Splitting The Winnings and Shift Change have been added to the gallery.
- Numerous improvements to visual and audio direction.
Fixes
- Fixed a rare error that would unlock all achievements.
- Sabetha's oral animations are properly proportioned.
- It is no longer possible to 'escape' the replay from Valzira's vaginal scene.
- Resolved a fringe inconsistency with gifting Heloise to the Infernals before her pregnancy is confirmed.
- Broodmother's gallery entry has been fixed and should unlock properly.
- Petruk will stop appearing if he is dead.
- Petruk's successor will no longer occasionally inherit his name.
- Time will pass when capturing Chanwe, Cooch, and Mina.
- You will gain Strength if you eat Issa after his encounter with Naho.
- You will gain Potency if you pursue the new option with Valzira.
- Cooch will remember to visit the beach during your Last Night with her.
- Several lines have been split to prevent overlapping the textbox.
- And everything found in the playtest! Thank you, playtesters!
