I am playing on beginner, turn 26. 24 shards conquered. I have one Key of Truth, one Ancient Part. My journal has an entry for the Seventh Key, and two other entries that basically identify Stenriya as possessing a Key of Truth. Dariol is the most recent Master to appear. Garros has been released by me.

My question is - is attacking Stenriya the only way forward? I've looked around in the forum, and people have said that you can beat the game by about turn 30, if you go for the Keys of Truth - but I only have one so far. Also, whenever a game, any game, tells me that a particular action "looks like" the only way forward, that lights up a warning light in my mind - I think that there must be some other way. But, I've already invested 270 hours into the game, and don't want to lose the progress and have to start over if I somehow "miss" the Keys of Truth by not attacking Stenriya.

So, I'm asking for a spoiler answer - do I HAVE to attack Stenriya to continue with the Keys of Truth path?
Yes, you should attack her, key is the thing which makes her a Master.
