Extras

> Dana's Custom Sachet

The item will stay in Item List > Valuables forever after Non-Guild Request: Fragrant Plant Seed Delivery is completed regardless of Cursed Wheel usage.

This means you don't have to do the request again on new runs.

> Sir Albano and Cursed Wheel

Tested on v1.1.2:

Cursed Wheel > Labyrinth Cleared > Albano's Relationship with His Uncle will not be saved when leaping with Cursed Wheel.

Albano questline progress was saved when:

I leapt to Second Major Harken > Did Albano's questline > Proceed the main quest without leaping forward:

Albano appeared during cutscene before fighting Helmut and at Edge of Town after epilogue.

Other tests:

1. I leapt to Second Major Harken > Did Albano's questline > Leapt to Warped Scene:

   Albano didn't appear during cutscene before fighting Helmut and at Edge of Town after epilogue.

2. I leapt to Labyrinth Cleared, with Albano's Relationship with His Uncle: Reconciled was set under it:

   Albano turned into a Warped One at B7F.

3. I leapt to Second Major Harken > Did Albano's questline > Proceed the main quest until Warped Scene > Leapt back to Labyrinth Cleared:

   Regardless of whatever value was set for Cursed Wheel > Labyrinth Cleared > Albano's Relationship with His Uncle, Albano will not be turned into a Warped One at B7F.

   I managed to make Albano to turn into a Warped One at B7F by:

   Leapt back to Second Major Harken > Left Albano's questline incomplete > Leapt to Labyrinth Cleared (Albano's Relationship with His Uncle: Did nothing).

> Guild Request: Cazula Root Delivery Doesn't Appear After Leapt to Warped Scene

Try to leap to Labyrinth Cleared and re-trigger King Iver's Coat cutscene.

Warning!:

If Albano turned into a Warped One after that, please do the steps under Extras: Sir Albano and Cursed Wheel.

> Stuck at Defeat Greater Warped One and Rescue King after Epilogue

Restart the game and the quest objective will disappear.
