She is first encountered at the start of Chapter Two, but is not initially an ally - she only joins the party in Chapter Three. Silk Fox is a possible romance option for both male and female characters. The romance will end if players choose options which contradict the philosophy she has adopted at this point.įrom this point, the romance plots of both Dawn Star and Silk Fox follow the same basic route. She will express concern about the what the player may have to do in order to pass as a Lotus Assassin, but her outlook will be different depending on whether the player has successfully converted her to the Way of the Closed Fist or not. When players have completed the steps necessary to infiltrate the Lotus Assassin Fortress, another conversation with Dawn Star can occur. The romance will end if players try to persuade her but fail the skill check, or if players express irritation at her raising the matter at all. Dawn Star is reluctant to make any definite statement of her feelings - the player can let her think about the matter (Open Palm), or can try to persuade her to be more aggressive in seeking what she wants (Closed Fist). Dawn Star and Silk Fox do not seem to like each other, and the player can suggest that one sees the other as a rival for the player's attention. The romance can continue either way, but will end if players are not interested in her concerns at all.Īfter Silk Fox joins the party, another conversation is possible. Players can either try to make her feel better, or encourage her to be more assertive, depending on whether they wish to see Dawn Star follow the Way of the Open Palm or the Way of the Closed Fist - the latter requires persuasion to make it work, with failure ending the romance.

On arrival, players can talk to Dawn Star about how the loss of her home has left her feeling overwhelmed and out of place. In Chapter Three, the romance can be continued in three further conversations around the Imperial City. The order of the conversations will depend on which areas the player visits first. The three conversations of importance correspond to the three sub-areas which can be accessed from Tien's Landing - Gao the Greater's pirate lair, the ruins of Old Tien's Landing, and the Great Southern Forest. After completing various major events of the chapter, Dawn Star will want to talk to the player about her experiences - if players ask how she is and listen to what she says, the romance plot can continue, whereas if they tell her that they are not interested, the romance plot will stop. In Chapter Two, however, the conversations become more important.

Dawn Star is the first of the romance options to be encountered in the game, although interactions with her in Chapter One are not critical to the romance plot.
