While you can forge friendships with nearly everyone in *Fields of Mistria*, romance is reserved for a select group of 11 NPCs, including the intriguing Caldarus, as introduced in the v0.13.0 update. Each romanceable NPC has a unique heart meter that fills based on your interactions with them. To foster a romantic connection with Juniper or any other character, you should:

  • **Engage in daily conversations**: Make it a habit to talk to them every day as you go about your tasks in town. These regular chats can significantly boost your relationship.
  • **Fulfill their requests**: Keep an eye on the town board for any requests they post and complete them. This not only helps the community but also increases their affection towards you.
  • **Gift them daily**: You can give one gift per day, and it should be something they like or love. The items vary from character to character, so pay attention to their preferences. On their birthday, presenting an item they love can give a significant boost to their heart meter.

Currently, the heart meter maxes out at six hearts. Reaching this level with Juniper will trigger a special cutscene hinting at budding romance. However, be patient, as the game's roadmap promises future updates that will include 8 and 10-heart events, along with options for marriage and children, ensuring your romantic journey in Mistria is just beginning.
