Basically, I have a few questions that I want to verify. I have checked around the game, but never the code, so these might be very stupid questions.

1. Is there a producible source for: Dragon Bone, Ancient Bone, or Bone? Bone is easy to come by, but making Ancient bone equipment is a bit of pain. Is there an option to build or buy a workable graveyard that I have missed? Also, I have only encountered a Dragon Bone knife and never the material itself, is it unimplemented?

2. Is there a way to farm Silk, like cloth, or otherwise turn cloth to silk? The process of going town to town is slightly annoying, though that is made up for in that you can search, so it is tolerable, just a bit... less than ideal. On that same thought, are there tele stones that I have not encountered yet for the villages or city? That would simplify things

3. How does one obtain obsidian? several upgrades are locked by it, and I have not found any yet, in either of my two playthroughs.

4. Is there a button or key to press to see what monsters need to be killed in the monster subjugation quests? I managed to see that I needed to kill  rats and wolves in 2 quests, but I have not been able to repeat that feat. The same question goes for tool making, how do you find out what needs to be made before accepting?

5. Is there a way to reduce obedience below 0 without r? On the same note, is there a way to reduce consent, or prevent its acquisition?

6. Is pregnancy implemented in Conquest? I have seen the breeder job appear on a hireling, though I didnt hire him. I have used one slave a lot, and emptied in the v maybe 10 times, but no change is visible after 60 or so days.

7. Is starvation implemented yet? I forbid a captured bandit from all foods, waited two days, and he was still alive, showing no signs of exhaustion. 

8. Is this community on Itch.io linked to Strive for Power? Some of the older posts seem directly tied to the previous title rather than conquest.

1. No, you can only get it randomly as of now.

2. Silk can be obtianed from spiders, but I plan to revamp resource gathering system in next version.

3. Elven city has a chance to have it, also random chest loot in dungeons.

4. You should be able to see the tool tip by mouse hovering the icon

5. No, not sure why you would need it.

6. Yes, but pregnancy is only possible if both parents are of the same race with some exceptions (humans-elves-beastkin)

7. I thought so, but maybe should double check it.

8. They both tied to same account so maybe there's that. I'm not honestly sure.

Thank you for answering. I have found three things that I think  are mildly notable: 1. Starvation does exist, it just takes longer than two days. 2. Starvation does not kill, the damage done is healed by the days end, even if the victim is coerced into long hours of a job. 3. The tooltip still doesn't appear for me, though I don't know why. BTW, thanks for making the game

Any reason not to add a  "Looking Glass icon"  to indicate you can mouse over potential slaves to indicate you can see more? For intuitive reasons.

Large Mana Numbers on Front enemies tend to Mix into HP numbers on back enemies, perhaps there could be a better way to display, or atleast adjust the spacing so double digit numbers don't over lap, and perferably tripple digit numbers don't.  Polishing for a later game stage though, Adjusting the over all size of the combat window and spacing would probably be enough.
