After a dozen or so hours I restarted because I wanted a Ranger instead of Knight. During character creation I set my companion AI to "Free" (Free Spirit?).

Now, when I try to invite Madora, my companion disagrees.

A. I know at some point I will have the option to hire other mercenaries at the End of Time.

B. I also know (after 3 stones?) I get a mirror that can be used to change the AI.

What I don't know is if that is too late. Will I be viable as a trio before I have access to options A and B above.

Your thoughts?

Thanks!
