Unfortunately, this character's story is yet to be told, so we might consider making a DLC with her story, but can't promise just now.

I wondered if there was more to Aylis' story as well. A couple events use rescuing her as a requirement, but nothing else ever comes of it. Also, her cool epithet "the Golden Voice" really had me hoping she'd have more of a role in the story.

Here's the information we have on Aylis.

PRIEST PATH: If you took the Priest Path then Jeanne reveal that she and Aylis were childhood friends and that she knows Aylis is a witch. You can try to convince Aylis to join the house of humility (she refuses, uses magic to make two men attack you, and Jeanne kills her to save your life), tell Jeanne to convince Aylis to live by her lot (she returns to Aniozette alive, becomes a laborer, and breaks off her friendship with Jeanne), or tell Jeanne to accept Aylis as she is (she gives Aylis advice on avoiding arrest and Aylis joins a troupe as an actress.

If you took the third option then later on, when you find another innocent witch, you can save her life by telling her to join Aylis' troupe. If you do this then Aylis sends Jeanne a letter revealing that the witch you sent to her is adapting well to life on the road and teases Jeanne about her feelings for Sir Brante. Sent alongside the letter is a box of gold as a show of thanks, and Jeanne lets you keep all of it since you still have a family.

NOBLE PATH: In the Noble Path then Aylis is brought to be judged by you for sleeping with a nobleman in front of a temple, with a priest coming too and insisting she's a witch. You can interrogate her, proving the priest right and causing her death. You can also let her go scot-free, after which she sleeps with you in the nearest hotel. You can also contact the nobleman she slept with to get his testimony, decide she's not a witch, and sentence her to public shaming as punishment for her sacrilege.

COMMONER PATH: In the Commoner Path, when Sophia leads an attempt to free the witches, if you follow her plan to the letter than you free most of the witches from the pyre but Aylis dies of smoke-inhalation. You can convince Sophia to prevent bloodshed by using her oratory skills and magic to make the legion stand down, letting you free all the condemned witches - in this case Jeanne cuts Aylis free herself and apologizes for almost getting her killed. You can also use Sophia's planned riot to sneak up to the stand and cut all the witches free from the pyres - including Aylis.

You can also free mages (including Aylis) yourself. Jeanne will help Aylis, apologize to her and say thanks to you. Later Sophia is impressed with you freeing mages by yourself.

I'm sorry for necroing an old thread, but...

If you ever do a DLC or add-on or whatever, can you please give some justice to Father Mark and his patron Patriarch Diamant? I'm not even asking for a route where you may join his teaching (even though playing as a priest and being unable to join the Cathar heresy seems odd to me), but just a slide in the epilogue maybe? At least a honorary reference in the Church section? I feel like I spent enough efforts saving his fat аss to know his future.
