💕 Romance Guide

Full romance flow: raise hearts 2 → 4 → 6 → 8 → 9 → 10 (1.0 raises the cap to 10 hearts for everyone). At the 8-heart event you choose Romance (Dating) or Best Friends — friendship-only is fully viable with no penalty. The 9–10 heart events are the marriage track (new in 1.0), gated by commitment items. From Dating, the path runs: 10 hearts → Engagement Ring → propose → choose a wedding date → ceremony → spouse moves in → optional children via the Mystical Feather.

Heart Level Milestones

Heart events trigger at 2/4/6/8/9/10 hearts. Only marriage candidates have events.

MilestoneDetail
2 HeartsClassic story beat (EA). First of the heart-event milestones only marriage candidates have.
4 HeartsClassic story beat (EA). From 4 hearts the candidate sends a letter and a birthday gift each year, and can be invited to the Shooting Star Festival / Harvest Festival.
6 HeartsClassic story beat (EA). Most heart events play out as a Heart Quest — a letter arriving, then meeting at a specific location.
8 HeartsThe Romance / Best Friends branch. In the 8-heart event the player chooses to establish a Dating relationship or a Best Friends relationship — going the friendship route is completely viable with no penalty. Some candidates have explicit choice branches (e.g. Celine "best friend / feelings", Valen "Platonic / Romantic", Caldarus "best friends / romantic feelings").
9 HeartsMarriage track (new in 1.0). The 9-heart event is part of the marriage runway and is gated by commitment items.
10 HeartsMarriage track (new in 1.0). The 10-heart event is where the Engagement Ring can be used to propose. Some heart events have extra unlock conditions such as completing a specific Story Quest or reaching a specific goal.

💡 8-heart event: choose Romance or Best Friends. Both paths are valid — no penalty for friendship.

Dating

  • Unlocks after the 8-heart event Romantic path — you can then invite the candidate on a date.
  • Timing: dates can only be invited on Saturday or Sunday.
  • Frequency: limited to one date per person per week.
  • Multi-dating is allowed — if you are dating several people at once, you can take one out on Saturday and another on Sunday.
  • You can date more than one person, but you can only marry one.

💡 Dating significantly boosts hearts — taking your dating partner out on Saturday is the fastest way to reach 10 hearts. Kissing is available across dating, engaged, and married statuses.

Engagement Ring

Reach 10 hearts, see all heart events, and be officially Dating. Elsie then visits the farm and delivers the Engagement Ring recipe (unlocking the Forge crafting). The recipe also requires progressing the main story / mines — complete the "The Dragonsworn Tablet" Story Quest, and push the mines to level 100 to unlock the extra recipes at the level 90 Dragon Forge.

MaterialSource
Dragon-Forged CoreCrafted at the Dragon Forge on mines level 90 using a Monster Core (dropped by Enchanter / Flame Spirit enemies) + Mistril Ingot. Recipe comes from "The Dragonsworn Tablet" quest.
DiamondBuy from Balor's cart, or mine on the lava floors 61–79.
Mistril IngotMine Mistril Ore on the ancient ruins floors 81–99, then process at the Forge.
Gold IngotMine gold ore on the lava floors 61–79, then process at the Forge.

💡 Cannot be bought — it must be crafted. The materials require access to the deepest parts of the mines, so players who ignore mining to focus on friendship will get stuck.

Wedding

Exchange vows and light candles to symbolize the union. The whole town attends the ceremony, then everyone moves to the Inn for a meal and toasts. Afterward the spouse moves into your farm immediately.

  • After proposing, pick a wedding date within the next 10 days on the calendar.
  • Talk to your fiancé(e) on at least 3 different days before the wedding to progressively unlock the three choices: wedding flower color, cake flavor, and feast menu.
  • Townsfolk will react to your engagement with excited dialogue (an immersion detail).

💡 If you pick the earliest wedding date, talk to your fiancé(e) every single day beforehand so you don't miss a preparation choice — players have reported missing the feast menu selection.

Married Life

  • Spouse moves into the farm and syncs their routine — they wake with you, with a wake-up kiss prompt.
  • The day after the wedding, Elsie sends a letter with 3 pieces of furniture from the spouse's old room; placed, the spouse interacts with them.
  • You can kiss anytime — across dating, engaged, and married statuses.
  • New post-marriage dialogue and NPC routines are added (1.0 patch notes).
  • Seasonal wedding sprites, plus a spouse hold-baby alternate sprite (e.g. Juniper holding baby Rune).

Spouse Unique Items (12)

Each spouse gives a unique item at proposal. You can collect all 12 by proposing to each, then choosing.

Multiple Romance & LGBTQA+

  • LGBTQA+: any gender combination can romance and marry.
  • Dating multiple people at once is allowed — toggle before engagement to keep multi-dating going.
  • After marriage, other candidates you were dating automatically become Best Friends rather than romantic partners.
  • Best Friends route: any candidate can be taken down a pure friendship line (choose Best Friends at 8 hearts) with no penalty and still has heart events.
  • Low jealousy: raising friendship with others continues unaffected.

Secret Candidates

CandidateUnlock
Caldarus (guardian dragon, male)Complete the main story quest "Breaking The Final Seal" before you can propose. If you attempt the 10-heart proposal before that quest is done, the game notes the time isn't right and Caldarus is still bound to the Deep Woods.
Seridia (former Witch Queen / dragon, female)Complete the full Mines main storyline (The Priestess questline) — she then reveals her true identity as Seridia and becomes romanceable.
