What the... I'm getting more and more pissed off. Since the □ button refused to work, now I really have no clue what I should do... is everyone else's working properly? Is it just mine!? In the Obadabi tavern there are too few beds, only two, so you have to split into two pairs, right? It bothers me a bit that there's no partition, but... ah well, there's no helping it. Bah!!
For those unfamiliar with the mechanics of the game:
You can't give the Arisen's Bond to a pawn (or any other gifts, for that matter) other than as a "here, hold this in your inventory, it's heavy" thing.
In spite of the fact that you have nigh-total control over the appearance and equipment of your pawns (and as such, 90% of pawns are tiny women, and at least half of them are going into combat in bikinis), the fact that they have by far the most spoken lines in the game, and spend the entire game at your side, you can't ever have any relationship with your pawns aside from hired muscle.
Meanwhile, ANY RANDOM NPC can become your "lover" simply by having enough affinity points - including guards, children, and that old lady that calls you "minnow" who might be your grandmother.
Also, Arisen's Bonds only raise affection to the minimum value of the highest affinity level, but your affinity scores can go way beyond that, and affinity basically means nothing to anyone but the merchants, and your highest-rated character, anyway.
Meanwhile, you gain affinity points each time you talk to someone, so you can easily end up with your "true lover" being the innkeeper or the burly blacksmith dude just because they have the services you use the most.
Let me do herrrrr!
