Yes, this is what I thought - I've succeeded with O&A during a drought when failing just before that. BTW, has anyone else managed to seduce Gagarth?

Sounds reasonable.

;) Actually, I've found Humakt to be easier than Ernalda - provided that your quester is a quite good Humakti, though... It took me quite a while to succeed with Ernalda's - I kept failing when I ran into Babs Gor. A thought I had - do you think the age of the quester affects this last station? I think I've done better with an older quester at most times, but that might just be my imagination running wild... ;)

I've never succeeded on getting back on track, and I've tried several times.
