So I finished Burry's route, and there's one thing that kept bothering me. What exactly happens when someome goes "Ablaze"? Since Burry can forcefully invoke Ablaze through putting someone through extreme stress, what exactly does that mean for the person?
One thing that bothered me was when Luke supposedly went into Ablaze during one of the flashbacks in Max's route, human mana crystals started popping up around him. Are the crystals a byproduct of Ablaze? And ever since then (I Think), Luke lost his memories of everything.
What I'm currently assuming is that when a person experiences extreme stress or trauma, they undergo Ablaze, and lose their memories (?) in the process as their mana starts to crystalize around them. This might explain the crystals that appeared in Alon's backstory. So if mana is your life experiences and memories (?), then the crystals that have a person's mana is their memories that a person going into Ablaze expelled?
Sorry, I'm trying to write a fanfic about Shelter and I need clarification :'(
This is just what I think happens so take it with a grain of salt!
I think mana is just memories taking physical forms, they stay in the air when they form, so when you use magic, the cost it has is that you're burning those memories, even the ones that aren't yours, (mostly the ones that are floating in the air and present around you), the stronger the memories are, the stronger they burn. So going ablaze is just burning throught the memories that surround you so quickly that you also start burning the ones inside you too, I believe that inside your body and inside the creatures in general, mana is present in the blood (and saliva, mostly fluids I assume). In times of need a creature concentrates it on a liquid like blood, and if there happens to be a lot of mana on it (like going ablaze), the moment that liquid touches the air the reaction happens so quickly it cristalizes instead of burning.
We see this as Alon bites the hand of that guy, or when Luke is stabbed on the past sequence, etc.
if you want to make sure there is nothing you need to do try finishing burry and rune routes. I am 100% sure this going to fix the problem. Because the story is kind of connected with every route, so try at first burry and then go to rune and you can then continue with max.

So spoilers
I finished rune route but like I really wanted there to be romance between them like yk
Pretty sure Rune dislikes monogamous relationships and prefers polygamous relationships.
Omg i did the code 6969 it works so well beacuse he said that's second thing after 1234 those perverts are going to try lmao.
Guys, can someone tell me where all Mysterious Figures located?
you can ask this in the discord server, where there is a section called (shelter spoilers) :P
I dont know why, but one of Alon's lines in the barkest corner reminds me of the song the villain i appear to be

oh u understand now thx for a help <3
You are welcome :D
how do you zoom out on the Paths Menu? I saw it was do-able in the youtube video but I havent found out how to do it yet ;-;
I think you need to not interrupt Rune and Alon fight.... Maybe :/ You can make sure by seeing the shelter Fowchart
Hey! The full Paths with all its features is a Patreon build's perk. The itch build has a sample of it.
I love it but can someone help me with my phone crashing? Is there something i can do or its just going to happen??
I see it keeps crashing on other games for you too, so that doesn't seem like any game's fault. Maybe try playing on PC or try a different phone.
