~~Emily and~~ Cali both require some decent fighting abilities to finish their quests, so avoid the "commotion at the marketplace" and ~~the "urchin girl"~~ prompts around town until you are a good level. Edit: Emily quest line has no time issues, though there is still a fight that could cause some problem once you start trying to get her sister Tisha.

**Minor Spoiler** Near the end of the main quest, you'll have the option to sacrifice a slave's life or not, and doing so you'll end up with Melissa as your slave. The slave that is selected for the option is your "favorite" slave, which the game determines via a combination of slave loyalty, level, times you've sexed them and the length of ownership. So if you want to get the reward of sacrificing, but don't want to lose a good slave, buy a cheap slave your first day and pamper the hell out of them while mostly ignoring other slaves.

**Again Minor Spoiler** The sex seems a major factor in determining your 'favorite'. I think it registers every individual act, so 20+ per interaction (multiplied by 3 for the final score). Tia died for me, despite recruiting her and Cali quite late. All I did with her was test how many perversions one character could have.

**Continuing Spoiler Talk** I mostly just have sex with the cheap slave every day, partly to build up mana, and I tend to reach the final battle around day 60 cause I take a slower approach and so far the strategy has worked.

Continuation on that spoiler, this is the exact formula:

var score = i.metrics.ownership + i.metrics.sex*3 + i.metrics.win*2 + i.level*7

For me, "win", which is combat rounds won, was by far the dominating factor, cause i did a lot of combat. Sex was a distant 2nd.

Tell me if I get this right.. so if I rush the main quest in ~2-4 days and grab a level 11-13 slave from a random bandit camp before the "sacrifice" quest part, then if I didn't level my "story" slaves there is no chance for them to be selected for it, because the lv11 slave (even if I didn't even touch them aside from capturing them) will have too high of a "score" so it will always get targeted for the "sacrifice" ?

(assuming I get a "story" slave at day one and they stay lv1, I interact with them every day (including sex), they get a score of 4(ownership)+12(sex)+0(win)+7(level)=23 while the random lv11 bandit I just dragged home that day gets 77 just from her level?..)

Looking at the formula it does look like the main target will be your best combat slave if you're not rushing tho..

..by the way, what happens if you reach that part of the quest with either no slaves or all slaves in "away" status ?

Is there a time limit for Emily/Tisha's quest to get a 'good ending' in the new version now like Cali? I always get Emily as early as possible and has her rotate with my starting servant in library/hunting so when I go to the field for the first time I have three fighters instead of two.

I don't normally do their quest but as far as I know, there is a time limit once Emily tells you that Tisha is missing and you can fail to find her if you take too long. This was a few versions back when I did it, but I don't think it's changed.

Weird... I remember playing 0.5.16a build and waited for what must have been 30-60 days before I went to find Tisha and still managed to get her with no problem. Although I deleted my save so I might recall the details wrong and just got lucky within the cut off date. Thank you very much for the heads up.

I went ahead and tested this, and it does seem like there's no way to lose Tisha. I don't know if I've always been repeating false advice or it is was fixed, but I will edit my original post.
