Since the name "Ralph" didn't seem familiar, i went and explored the tents... yeah he was in a tent that was previously empty(which is why i didn't bother checking it), you should make some pointers for backtracking like that. Since i thought it was Alfred guy who was the pivotal one(i mean he gives the entrance token to the club, seems kinda pivotal eh?) so most of my time i spent in market, noble, and sewers, districts.
Though it kinda sucks that now my MC is piss poor and with no hp consumables or antidotes left, but i guess that's a part of challenge for me now :D, I'm glad i can continue the game now. If i see any other issues, or bugs possibly, i'll let you know. Thanks for a quick response(honestly thought you'd respond in a month or so, since a lot of devs aren't that active in Itch.io when it comes to discussions and stuff)
Also a lil question, what stat check is that chest in there? Is it res? Making that guess based on MC talking about poison.
By the way, the VA narration was so good that it's kinda sad that it isn't present in the game more.
