I also don't know how to do anything with the dog, whenever I try to name it it doesn't work. And that's the only option I have. Also, is there any way of progressing in the game right now after running food and drink errands for the jester and telling Bernard about it? It just kinda feels like I'm stuck. If that's it for now I totally understand. Sorry for all the questions and thank you so much for your work and effort on this game, it really paid off. :)
EDIT: It also feels like sneaking into the camp to defeat the bosses would be a next step but idk if that's possible now, if it is, do I need to improve my relationship with the bandits by increasing their attitude?
