A "pretty major surprise" on the way with the next patch. Um, lots of head scratching going on as to what this might be.

Sexy is missing in this game, so that will be the 'pretty major surprise':
a quest where you chose a pal, or not, and how to live with,
it brings to choose between an action skill if you're finally single, or a permanent buff if the pal is protected at home, or a fighting/supporting pet if the pal follows.
