A walkthrough of the second season story arc, Song of the Crimson Nile, in Romance Club continues. The setting returns to ancient Egypt as Euthys (also named Eve) guards a secret while meeting new characters. This guide explains the outcomes of each choice and how they shape the tale.
Chapter (Episode) 1: Smoke and Fire
The maximum diamonds needed to complete a single series is 170 diamonds.
The wardrobe budget shows a ceiling of 287 diamonds for outfits.
Livius discovers that Eva is a shezmu. Every action influences the overall impression, leaving little room for ambiguity.
The honest path: Euthys crosses her arms, smiles, and asks Livius what he thinks makes a good morning joke.
The cunning path: Eva looks at Livius with a hint of disbelief and pretends to be surprised.
Relationship with characters:
- Players can build ties with Amen and Livius. As feelings shift, Livius may sense there is something between Eva and Amen, which can cause tension for him.
- A strong connection with Livy helps keep tensions in check, as Livius will not press hard against accusations.
The choices include moments like saying, “I can only nod to Livia,” which earns trust, or simply being happy for someone with no effect on the outcome.
Eva wonders why she has been summoned. She follows the flow, with Livius nearby trying to grasp Euthys’ thoughts. He recognizes she is not a threat, merely trying to endure the situation.
- Seeing things from his own perspective, Livius might feel overwhelmed by his own emotions in these moments, with a score of 33 diamonds attached to his difficulty in handling them.
- Interacting with Eva opens up more possibilities, sometimes without any effect on the immediate scene.
Several events affect honesty or trickery: Diya’s status, a neighbor’s disappearance, and the capture of a thief all influence the character’s honesty or cunning scores.
In another set of decisions, the distrust grows when certain truths are withheld or questions go unanswered, prompting a cautious approach to what is revealed. Some dialogue hints at hidden amulets and the priestly figures who hold influence in the plot, shaping how much trust remains between the players.
Livius leans against a wall as Eva writes, noticing strange symbols that could leave a mark on the course of history. Euthys senses the tension and mentally counters by rationalizing her steps.
Path scene: The priest of Anubis is described as having been harmed by the shezmu after aiding them. Eva faces two routes: the honest path, where she remains composed and continues gathering belongings, and the cunning path, where she questions the danger and asks if the man is a threat.
- Honest path: Eva feels shocked and fearful yet keeps moving, understanding the risks of dark magic games as hinted by Remmao.
- Cunning path: Eva freezes, wondering if the man could be dangerous.
- What should be done next, which increases honesty by one; yield to Tiziana, which increases cunning; or allow a moment alone for Eva and Tiziana, which increases honesty again.
- Other interactions involve questions about supplies and market demand, gaining honesty or cunning points.
Path scene: Eva accuses Livius of greed and recalls the bottle of oil he sold. Choices include describing the situation honestly or feigning surprise, which can improve or strain relations with Livius.
- Share the memory with Livius to improve relations, or continue without any effect.
The plan to escape the epistat is discussed as Livius asks what their strategy is, implying Amen already knows more than he reveals.
- Path of great fame: Eva asserts she knows what Livius is hinting at and believes Amen may not know everything, or he would act differently.
- Path of low fame: Eva is surprised that Amen might have guessed the outcome, given the severe consequences they could face if discovered.
Remark: Paying for wardrobe choices later can improve relationships with Amen and Livy down the line.
Wardrobe options for Gersa include: Dress and belt for free, Shiny side for a diamond cost, Neil at sunrise for 55 diamonds, or Take everything for 80 diamonds.
Wardrobe options for hair styling: Smoothly combed for free, Foreign style for a diamond cost, Bangs and braids for a diamond cost, or Take everything for 80 diamonds.
Wardrobe options for Gersa look with the horizon line for free, Sunset in Shemu for 55 diamonds, Summer oasis in Axet for 64 diamonds, or Take everything for 107 diamonds.
Wardrobe options for another accessory: Thin chain for free, A bracelet for 11 diamonds, Decorated bracelets for 11 diamonds, or Take everything for 20 diamonds.
Selection: It seems nothing happens, and Libya’s relations remain steady; or Livius notices distance, ending the romantic link with Livy. Continuing the romance with Livy triggers further dialogue.
Selections include moments like, “But I met you,” which brings Eva closer to Livius, or “You are observant” which costs nothing.
Path of honesty: Eva thinks Livy is wasting time and challenges him. Path of cunning: Eva believes Livy is manipulative and moves closer to test him. A line about Gersa, a member from Pella, ties into Tiziana’s interest in Herce, followed by a free Ask Livy option with no effect.
Selection: “I…”
- “I can’t lie to myself anymore” – Eva admits her feelings for the epistat torment her.
- “I have to end this” – Eva seeks a romantic bond with Amen.
If the romance with Amen continues, another dialogue will unlock.
- “I’m not afraid and I will prove it” – Amen responds positively to a visit, costing 55 diamonds; or “No, not today” which has no effect.
Remark: The following questions test options in advance to shape the outcome.
Time selections include choices that can lead to Diya receiving new injuries or staying unharmed, depending on whether truth or deception guides the actions. If Diya speaks truth, certain story shifts occur when the epistat is aware. Misleading the epistat can leave Diya focused on pain and not hearing the conversation.
Final interrogation highlights two outcomes: a high level of suspicion can trigger a loss of recognition as hunters shadow Eva, while other cases yield a small increase in recognition and a waiting game from watchers who expect a surrender.
Remark: If earlier episodes pushed Diya toward madness, suspicion rises significantly here.
Maximum points available in a single episode include options to gain three points in honesty or cunning and one point in recognition.
Note: This is a fictional walkthrough inspired by the game Romance Club. Readers should enjoy the story through their own choices and discover how different actions influence relationships and plot progression.
