The gift of song

[RoundSquare]

Do you need to buy all the songs from contractor in order to get the final Orpheus lession? For some reason Orhpeus dosn't want to teach me. Im playing the lure after every run (did ~25 runs already), had 2 lessions and yet I can't get the last one. Btw, I dont have other conversations with him (maxed relationship), if he is in the house, he just sits there or sings songs.

You don't need to buy songs. I only unlocked one by the time I got that prophecy fulfilled.

I can't say for sure, but I have heard it rumoured that it's not the number of runs that's important, but the actual number of interactions with the lyre prop. So you might progress the story faster by clicking it 5 times, or 10, between each run instead of just once.

It's interaction with lyre indeed. Takes a lot of times, but sonner or later Zag will actually play proper music on it. Then it may take some time for game to actually register the end of prophecy (Orpheus was heavily slacking for me), but essentially you'll be done.

The quest is as follows:

Buy the lyre
Play it at least once (possibly a few times?)
Get dialog from Orpheus where he gives pointers
Play lyre approximately 100 times until you get proper music
Get dialog from Orpheus about how you've improved

Do you know if these 100 times have to be from different runs? Or can I just go to his room, and just play it a hundred times in a row and be done with it?

I have all of those and it's still not fulfilled, and Zag keeps saying how he needs more practice.

I dunno if any runs are required at all, but I was doing about 30 plays at a time between runs and it just turned to the improved music riffs (you'll know the difference, they're like 4-8 seconds long and not just a strum or two) after several in a row. Definitely wasn't the first one after completing a run or anything.
