Personally, I wish I could see the profile in the drawing from Rubim's battle scene, and Cobold is cute. I'd like to see the Covold and the battle scene, but it's hard to find
Thanks for your compliments on my game, I appreciate you commenting ^v^
I think atm, the Kobold battle scene can only be triggered once you progress the main story and meet the Kobold Chief.
Once I get comissioned art for the castle characters sorted, i'll be able to go through and comission art for drawings mentioned in scenes and stuff :3
If you're looking for the profile and battle art assets just in general, they can be found on my discord :O
The kobold battle encounter is an extension of the scene in the kitchen that unlocks after you visit the kobold quarters for the first time.
Bad ends remove you from the usual rotation of scenes and substitute their own in, so if you're in a bad end currently, you'll need to escape it to return to the regular rotation of scenes.
I'll double check and make sure that transitioning in and out of a bad end doesn't cause any issues though.
So I had a look at it, and I think the issue is to do with the respect level being too high to trigger the scene.
The plan is to increase and decrease respect based on dialogue choices, as well as by winning or losing combat encounters, however since the trigger for actually getting into a fight with kobolds is based on respect, it means that untill I add repeatable dialogue options that lower their respect, you can be locked out of the scene if you don't submit to the Lion at the start.
Not to worry though, there's a lot of content in the next update that deals with that, and I've also increased the respect required to avoid a fight so you'll be able to encounter them, even if you impress them at the start of the game.
It'll be released in the next update which I'll release after I finish the next load of content planned, as well as after bug testing, likely in December
