I don't know, it's just really weird that I totally missed the option to romance Gale. There were two cutscenes were my character sort of hinted that she had a thing for him, but nothing ever happend after that. And now it's too late. Had to go with Halsin instead laugh

I'll do an evil run next, so maybe it'll be easier to take more long rests, as it's not as important to finish timed quests.
