QUICK ANSWER · LACRA ROUTE

Complete Lacra's questline through The Night of Horrors, then make a manual save before the Mandrake decision. Current walkthroughs identify that late quest as the romance trigger; use the exact in-game prompt rather than copying dialogue from an older video.

How do you protect the Lacra romance route?

  1. Keep Lacra's questline active: follow the objective log from A Friend Like This instead of jumping directly to a spoiler-heavy final choice.
  2. Finish the earlier route steps: current guides place the later romance scene after Song of the Mountain, Hive and Seek, and Our Rotten Roots.
  3. Make a save before The Night of Horrors choice: do this before interacting with the Mandrake or confirming a major dialogue prompt.
  4. Read the in-game prompt: use the current build's wording and confirm the resulting quest state before continuing.
  5. Keep the save until the route is confirmed: this lets you revisit an outcome without risking unrelated late-game progress.

Can Lacra's route coexist with other romances?

Current launch guides report that the three romance routes can coexist in one playthrough. That does not mean their quests have no time cost or that every ending variation is identical. Use the broader romance options guide for the roster, then use this page only for Lacra's specific route.

Spoiler and verification note

This page names the quest order and save point, but deliberately does not reproduce every dialogue line or scene. Patch changes can alter requirements, so report the game version and the exact quest state if the Mandrake prompt differs from the current guide.
