Legends of Savvarah: Time of Pariah: 100% Achievement Guide + Plot Flowchart

Time of Pariah is a sprawling and somewhat nonlinear VN, its playthroughs short but widely variable. Each scene affects and is affected by others in turn, leading to an amount of possibilities that makes some of its depths hard to discover – which can be frustrating when some of those more intricate paths have unique endings and achievements that would otherwise go unfound.

First and foremost, the novel’s internal logic has been compiled into a flowchart viewable on and downloadable from Google Drive here[drive.google.com].
(Drive’s native PDF viewer is a bit odd with files of this size – downloading and viewing locally may be required to get it at a reasonable level of zoom.)
This chart maps out each choice in a scene, the variables set by each choice, and the conditions checked at each branch, allowing one to plot their own route through the novel in order to see particular scenes or predict the effects a choice might have.

For those who are just looking for the achievement-marked bits of the story, however, each one’s context is described broadly and a detailed route is given below.
The achievements are broadly divided into two categories: Endings, and mid-plot events. These can overlap somewhat: the routes necessary to get each ending will unlock many of the plot-beat achievements, but seeing a given plot event doesn’t guarantee any particular ending. For that reason, the ending-specific achievements and routes have been detailed first.

Time of Pariah contains 24 unique endings, each of which grant an achievement when earned. Many of these endings can be found in multiple scenes, or can be reached in several different ways. With that in mind, the routes given here serve only as one example of how to accomplish each ending, and are not the definitive path.

The most commonly-found ending. At some point during most playthroughs, Hidu will consider the possibility of simply running away from all the chaos in Seihal. Do so, and Epilogue 1 will be reached.

1. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
3. Sudu
4. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Run out of town.)

A unique variant of Epilogue 1. If the player confronts Sudu after being told about two guards’ involvement in the incident, and presses him insistently enough, Hidu will be thrown in jail. Refusing to use Hidu’s history with Nesher as a means of bartering for a way out (or not doing so thoroughly enough) will result in a succession of characters turning up to offer to spring Hidu from jail. If the player has slept with Viorra, Otkor will be one of them. Accept his offer and get him to deliver word to Viorra, and she will escape Seihal with him.

1. Honey House
   • (Wait for the conversation to end.)
   • To see you.
   • I’ll need to go.
2. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Nesher
   • [Any options can be picked until the end of the scene. This one is necessary for granting access to the following scene, but nothing in it will affect the route to Epilogue 2.]
4. Honey house
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Just chatting with Otkor. He’s quite an engaging conversationalist.
   • I’m not looking, I’m admiring.
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Respond in kind.)
   • Refuse. It’s important to deal with the investigation.)
   • [Pick either choice]
5. Sudu
   • Is the guards playing some kind of game against Butar?
   • Don’t you know? You’re probably behind all this.
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Say nothing.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Decline.)
   • Tell Viorra I’ll wait for her at the city’s exit.

This epilogue is reached by helping Nesher carry out his plan against Balas. Most ways of ending up on this path involve being inducted into Balas’s conspiracy while earning a high enough relationship with Nesher that he will let Hidu in on his plan to undermine it, but (as demonstrated in the route below) it can also be found by stumbling onto Nesher mid-mutiny. If Nesher survives the fight against Balas, Hidu and Ida will flee Seihal together.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Don’t tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
3. Red Shiv
   • (Go to Nadjar with Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x5)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • We need to run.
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • Go to Nesher again. Sneak up and watch his lair.
   • (Try to talk.)
   • [Pick either choice]

This ending can be reached in two main ways: Either accepting Nesher’s offer of mutiny and letting him die in the fight with Butar, or taking Nesher’s cart of explosives for yourself and using it on Varos while not stopping for the side objective encountered along the way. After either of these are done, Hidu will attempt to leave the city, but will have been delayed enough to encounter the soldiers that Balas’s conspiracy was meant to summon.

1. Honey House
   • [Any choices can be picked until the end of the scene.]
2. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I can’t make that decision right away.
3. Nesher
   • (Eat.)
4. Honey House
   • [Any choices can be picked until the end of the scene. An important flag for route progression is set in this particular scene, but it is set no matter what the player chooses.]
5. Black Horn
   • I wanted to check how you are.
   • Well, yes. Why, by the way?
   • I met with her and we talked.
   • I… um… slept with her.
   • Well… it’s just happened.
   • I think the guards are involved. It seems two guards were involved in the attack.
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Defend Sudu.)
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Don’t tell about Nesher.)
   • (Run.)
6. Nesher
   • [Pick either option] (x4)
   • What is my role in all this?
   • [Pick either option] (x2)
   • (Talk to Nesher.)
   • Everything okay?
   • Got it.
   • I’m ready.
   • I agree with you.
   • (Wait.)
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Throw a dagger at the planking with explosives.)
   • (Attack first.)
   • (Accept Nesher’s help.)
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Attack.)
   • [Pick either option]

This ending is reached by being sent on Balas’s raid (either at his side or with Nesher), and impressing Balas enough that he offers membership in his gang. Joining up will see one of several epilogues unlocked – this one if Hidu hasn’t done certain things in the Honey House, and Epilogue 23 or 24 otherwise.

1. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
3. Sudu
4. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Go around the building and try to save Butar.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Butar.)
   • (Support assassination of Tertishin.)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Fate is a tricky thing.
   • No. Just a series of coincidences.
   • No, not like that.
   • What is my role in all this?
   • I’m all for it!
   • I’m ready.
   • Been dreaming of this for a long time.
   • (Rush forward.)
   • Killed, of course.
   • (Join.)

This ending is reached in much the same way as the last one. Get sent out on Balas’s raid at his side, but do not earn enough affinity to gain his trust, and after the raid is carried out successfully this epilogue will be shown.

1. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
3. Sudu
4. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Go around the building and try to save Butar.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Butar.)
   • (Support assassination of Tertishin.)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • You’re also sitting in this burrow.
   • No. Just a series of coincidences.
   • What does this question mean?
   • What is my role in all this?
   • But… why?
   • I’m ready.
   • I don’t like pointless violence.
   • (Hide behind the shadows.)
   • No need to kill him.

This ending can be reached after being inducted into Balas’s conspiracy and sent off to recruit Red Shiv. If your affinity with her is too low, having her survive the ensuing conflict (and killing Charak in the process) will leave Hidu somewhat rudderless. Opting not to leave the city will eventually give Hidu an audience with Taka, Black Horn’s patron, and lead to one of two endings depending on whether Hidu chooses to give up his information on Balas.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • I need to talk to you.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • (Aggressive style.)
   • (Sleep with her.)
   • You’re my ♥♥♥♥♥ now, aren’t you?
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Sudu
   • Is the guards playing some kind of game against Butar?
   • Don’t you know? You’re probably behind all this.
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Say nothing.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Approach closer.)
   • I’m ready to give my answer.
   • (Agree.)
   • I need answers first.
   • I don’t care about Shiv, I want answers.
   • (Follow Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • What is my role in all this?
   • Alright, I’ve got it.
   • (Try talking.)
   • (Help Red Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Go to Black Horn.)
   • (Challenge Varos.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
     • To earn Epilogue 7: (Tell about Balas.); (Send some of the mercenaries to investigate); [pick either choice]
     • To earn Epilogue 8: (Don’t tell about Balas.)

This ending is reached by letting Red Shiv take out Black Horn’s gang – either by killing Butar, or by killing Varos after his coup. These scenarios happen in cases where Hidu is on at least relatively good terms with Shiv, so afterwards she offers Hidu the opportunity to join up with her and take control of all Seihal. Accepting leads directly into this epilogue.

1. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • I’ll go gather information.
2. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Black Horn
   • (Tell.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Accuse Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • What’s next?
   • (Do not interfere with Butar’s murder.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Go to Red Shiv.)
   • (Help Red Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Take control of this place, of course.

This ending is reached by going on Balas’s raid alongside him while Charak is dead. This leaves nobody to prevent Nesher from executing his mutiny, and so the patriot achieves his goals.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • (Refuse.)
   • (Tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • (Evade the question.)
3. Sudu
   • Is the guards playing some kind of game against Butar?
   • Don’t you know? You’re probably behind all this.
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Say nothing.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Approach closer.)
   • I’m ready to give my answer.
   • (Agree.)
   • I need answers first.
   • (Attack Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • What is my role in all this?
   • Alright, I’ve got it.
4. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Ask her for help against Balas sukhu Denhiar.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x5)
   • (Decline.)
   • (Go to Balas.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • I’m ready.
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)

This ending is reached by joining Varos after he seizes control of the Black Horn gang – either by being there when he kills Butar, or by leading Red Shiv to him afterwards and then choosing to help Varos in the ensuing conflict.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [This scene has either 2 or 3 choices, depending on how the player answers – any combination of choices may be made.]
3. Black Horn
   • (Tell.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Accuse Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • What’s next?
   • (Do not interfere with Butar’s murder.
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Varos’s gang.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)

This ending is reached similarly to most of the routes for Epilogue 9. When Red Shiv proposes taking control of the place, the player will have the option to instead choose to stop and figure things out. If Nesher and Sudu are both alive, this may result in the option to lead the guards on a raid of Nesher’s hideout, which earns this ending.
(If Sudu is dead, on the other hand, Hidu is forced to go alone – which results in his death.)

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [This scene has either 2 or 3 choices, depending on how the player answers – any combination of choices may be made.]
3. Black Horn
   • (Tell.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Accuse Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • What’s next?
   • (Do not interfere with Butar’s murder.
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Go to Red Shiv.)
   • (Help Red Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stop for a while and figure everything out.)
   • (Go sort things out.)
   • (Go with guards.)

All four of these endings describe different points along the same route. After saving Butar from Varos’s coup, the player spends some time talking with him in hiding. After this, he can be convinced to leave the city, or to assassinate his patron. If Butar’s plan for that is followed, all of the outcomes to this are their own unique endings.

1. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
3. Sudu
4. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Go around the building and try to save Butar.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Butar.)
     • To earn Epilogue 13: (Support leaving the city.)
   • (Support assassination of Tertishin.)
   • (Follow Butar’s plan.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Help the Tertishin’s mercenaries.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • To earn Epilogue 14: We come to save you.
   • We come for your head.
     • To earn Epilogue 15: (Let Nadjar live.)
     • To earn Epilogue 16: (Kill Nadjar.)

This ending can be reached after getting Sudu to be interrogated by Black Horn. If he survives that scene, he will be a periodic presence through Varos’s coup, eventually presenting the option to switch allegiances to him and the guard. After doing so, if the player avoids the few (relatively obvious) choices that would lead to a quick death, they will be on track to get Hidu a spot on the guard and earn this ending.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [This scene has either 2 or 3 choices, depending on how the player answers – any combination of choices may be made.]
3. Black Horn
   • (Tell.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Defend Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tail Varos.)
   • (Do not interfere with Butar’s murder.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Varos’s gang.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Save Sudu.)
   • (Go after Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Break through to the garrison.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x6 or x7, depending on choices made)
   • (Agree.)

These endings are two endpoints of the same plot. After accompanying Red Shiv to her meeting with Nadjar, the player is given the opportunity to tell her about Nadjar. Doing so triggers an attack by Charak, after which the player can either leave the city (one of many ways to earn Epilogue 1) or go to Nesher. Attacking Nesher and bringing his cart of explosives to Sudu will then put the player on track for one of these endings, depending on their choices.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nadjar
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Red Shiv
   • (Go to Nadjar with Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Run outside.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • (We need to run.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Go to Nesher again. Sneak up and watch his lair.)
   • (Attack Nesher.)
   • (Go to Sudu with the cart.)
     • To earn Epilogue 18: (Convince him you’re not going to harm him.); (Go kill Varos.); (Save the girl first.); You must answer for everything you done.
     • To earn Epilogue 19: (Disarm him.); (Stay with the guard.)

These endings are reached by reaching the scene where Red Shiv goes to her meeting with Nadjar without telling Nesher about Shiv’s prisoner. When that interrogation to turn up any useful intel, choosing not to tell about Nesher sees Hidu come up with a fabrication that eventually results in Red Shiv leading an assault on Taka’s compound – running directly into Balas and his gang doing the exact same thing. Choosing alleigances in the middle of that mess determines which of the endings are earned.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Don’t tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Red Shiv
   • (Go to Nadjar with Shiv.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x5)
   • (Don’t tell.)
   • (Blame it on Black Horn.) OR (Blame it on Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • I’m ready.
   • [Pick either choice]
     • To earn Epilogue 20: (Fight against all.); [Pick either choice] (x4)
     • To earn Epilogue 21: (Fight for Tertishin.); [Pick either choice]; (Help Tertishin); [Pick either choice]

A very easy ending to get. When returning to the Honey House during a playthrough, sleep with Viorra. There are a lot of opportunities to flirt with her and earn relationship affinity, and the two start off with a pretty high affinity to reflect their status, so if you are at all trying to go for this event it is probably going to happen. After sleeping with Viorra, she will offer to let Hidu stay at the Honey House. Accept the offer, and this ending is earned.

1. Honey House
   • (Wait for the conversation to end.)
   • To see you.
   • [Pick either choice]
   • I’ll need to go.
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Honey House
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Just chatting with Otkor. He’s quite an engaging conversationalist.
   • I’m not looking, I’m admiring.
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Respond in kind.)
   • (Stay at the Honey House.)

This ending is earned by romancing Viorra and getting Balas to try to capture his niece. If the player pays a first-act visit to the Honey House and peeks in on the conversation they overhear, the knowledge gained from that can be conveyed to Balas during a conversation in Nesher’s basement. Go on the raid at his side, and if Balas is impressed enough to let Hidu join his gang (and Hidu has had sex with Viorra), he will act on that information and bring Hidu along. The player is presented with a choice once the Honey House is reached, and their choice there will decide which ending is earned.

1. Honey House
   • (Peek.)
   • Me? Recognized? I don’t know all the girls here.
   • I won’t tell anyone. Viorra is right – I know where Nesher is and I haven’t say it to anyone.
   • [Pick either choice] (x3)
   • I need to go.
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Don’t ask about it.)
3. Honey House
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Just chatting with Otkor. He’s quite an engaging conversationalist.
   • I’m not looking, I’m admiring.
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Respond in kind.)
   • (Refuse. It’s important to deal with the investigation.)
   • [Pick either choice] (Between x2 and x5 depending on choices – none of which will affect route progression, so any can be picked freely)
4. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
5. Sudu
6. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Go around the building and try to save Butar.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x4)
   • (Stay with Butar.)
   • (Support assassination of Tertishin.)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • Fate is a tricky thing.
   • No. Just a series of coincidences.
   • No, not like that.
   • Why didn’t you go after your brother’s daughter?
   • What is my role in all this?
   • I’m all for it!
   • (Talk to Nesher.)
   • What is Balas planning?
   • I don’t care about this war.
   • I’m ready.
   • Been dreaming of this for a long time.
   • Nesher doesn’t really seem to like what’s going on.
   • (Rush forward.)
   • Killed, of course.
   • (Join.)
     • To earn Epilogue 23: (Attack the assassins in black); [Pick either choice]; Let’s do it.
     • To earn Epilogue 24: (Attack the Honey House guards.)

Aside from the epilogues, Time of Pariah has 16 moments in its plot which get their own achievements. Many of these are necessary parts of plot routes or otherwise required for different endings, and so after following along with the first section many of them will be unlocked already. Like the epilogues, several of these are possible to unlock in multiple scenes, and there are many courses to reach some of them. The routes listed in this guide will only serve as one example of how to do so.

This achievement unlocks at the very beginning of the story, upon reaching the first map screen. It will be unlocked no matter what the player does.

This achievement is unlocked upon a first-act visit to the Honey House, if the player chooses to peek at the conversation they stumble into.

1. Honey House
   • (Peek.)

The achievement will unlock before the next choice.

This achievement is unlocked when going to Black Horn’s inn after spending an extended amount of time tailing Sudu, and discovering Varos executing a coup to take control of Black Horn’s gang.

1. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Sudu
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
3. Sudu
4. Black Horn
   • [Pick either choice]

The achievement will unlock before the next choice.

These achievements are unlocked in quick succession after escaping the coup with Black Horn – either by stumbling onto the plot while Varos is executing it, or by intervening to prevent Varos’s murder attempt after the interrogation of Sudu. The extended conversation that follows in hiding will allow the opportunity to sleep with Butar (earning the Circumstances achievement), and will always result in an expositional chat which gives the The real Butar achievement.

1. Perform the route as stated in the Coup section above, then continue as follows:
   • (Go around the building and try to save Butar.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • You mean a lot to me.
     • (Circumstances is unlocked here)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)

The real Butar will unlock before the next choice.

This achievement is unlocked after being formally introduced to Balas in Nesher’s basement. There are many ways to end up there in the course of a playthrough, and all of them should award this achievement.

1. Perform the route as stated in the Coup and Circumstances/The Real Butar sections above, then continue as follows:
   • (Stay with Butar.)
   • (Support assassination of Tertishin.)
   • (Tell about Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)

The achievement will unlock before the next choice.

These achievements can all be unlocked during a first-act visit to Red Shiv’s territory. After getting along well with Red Shiv, she will engage Hidu in a sparring duel. The approach taken during that duel will determine which of her two romance scenes are earned, each with their own unique achievement. After sleeping with Red Shiv, choosing to join her gang will result in Hidu being shown the prisoner and unlocking that achievement.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.
     • For the Grr! achievement: (Aggressive style.)
     • For the Savage achievement: (More defensive.)
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I’d be happy to.

Prisoner will unlock before the next choice.

This achievement can be unlocked when choosing not to accompany Red Shiv to her meeting with Nadjar. If Nesher was not told about Shiv’s prisoner, Charak and the assassins will be delayed long enough for Hidu to choose to play a game of cards – and then cheat, and then be given the previously-described penalty for cheating.

1. Perform the route as stated in the Grr!/Savage/Prisoner section above, then continue as follows:
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Don’t tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
3. Red Shiv
   • (Do not go to Nadjar with Shiv.)
   • (Play.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Try to cheat.)
   • Alright.

The achievement will unlock before the next choice.

These achievements can be unlocked when tailing Sudu after informing Nesher of Red Shiv’s prisoner. This will unlock the ability to go directly to Nesher’s hideout, at which point Hidu is given enough warning of the upcoming terrorist action to leave preemptively – or, should he so choose, to jump Nesher, escape that building, and then try to navigate the impending catastrophe with Red Shiv.

1. Perform the route as stated in the Grr!/Savage/Prisoner section above, then continue as follows:
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Black Horn
   • (Tell.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Defend Sudu.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tail Sudu.)
4. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
     • For the Recklessness achievement: (Attack Nesher.)
     • For the You’re not a hero achievement: (Agree and leave.)

Whichever final option is picked, the achievement will unlock before the next choice.

This achievement can be unlocked when Black Horn is interrogating Sudu. If the player chooses to defend Sudu while having a low enough reputation with Black Horn, things will go wrong and Sudu will end up dead anyway. In the confrontation that follows, Black Horn will attempt to kill Hidu, and running away will earn a permanent disavowal – and an achievement.

1. Honey House
   • [Any choices can be picked until the end of the scene.]
2. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • [Pick either choice]
     • If the “I just defend myself” choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
     • For the Grr! achievement: (Aggressive style.)
     • For the Savage achievement: (More defensive.)
   • (Sleep with her.)
     • If the (Aggressive style.) choice was picked, the player will be presented an additional choice here. Either option can be picked.
   • I can’t make that decision right away.
3. Honey House
   • [Any choices can be picked until the end of the scene. An important flag for route progression is set in this particular scene, but it is set no matter what the player chooses.]
4. Black Horn
   • I wanted to check how you are.
   • Well, yes. Why, by the way?
   • I met with her and we talked.
   • I… um… slept with her.
   • Well… it’s just happened.
   • I think the guards are involved. It seems two guards were involved in the attack.
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Defend Sudu.)
   • [Pick either option]
   • (Don’t tell about Nesher.)
   • (Run.)

The achievement will unlock before the next choice.

These achievements can be unlocked in quick succession after confronting Sudu after being told that two guard officers were involved in the incident. Being aggressive enough with your accusations will get Hidu thrown in jail, earning the Behind Bars achievement – and shortly thereafter offered the opportunity to break out with Charak, earning the Run and shadow achievement. That will put the player on a story path where Hidu is tasked with recruiting Red Shiv to Balas’s cause. Having a low enough reputation with her that she attacks you on sight, but then making the choices to ensure that both Hidu and Red Shiv survive the ensuing encounter, will cause Red Shiv to declare the two even and grant the You’re a scum, but you can live achievement.

1. Red Shiv
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Stay.)
   • (Try to disarm.)
   • I need to talk to you.
   • Great idea.
   • (Drink to the bottom.)
   • (Aggressive style.)
   • (Sleep with her.)
   • You’re my ♥♥♥♥♥ now, aren’t you?
   • I’d be happy to.
   • [Pick either choice]
2. Nesher
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Tell about Red Shiv’s prisoner.)
   • [Pick either choice]
3. Sudu
   • Is the guards playing some kind of game against Butar?
   • Don’t you know? You’re probably behind all this.
     • (Behind bars is unlocked here.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • (Say nothing.)
   • [Pick either choice]
   • (Approach closer.)
   • I’m ready to give my answer.
   • (Agree.)
     • (Run and shadow is unlocked here.)
   • I need answers first.
   • I don’t care about Shiv, I want answers.
   • (Follow Nesher.)
   • [Pick either choice] (x2)
   • What is my role in all this?
   • Alright, I’ve got it.
   • (Try talking.)
