Silence of the Sea, Book 1 Walkthrough

The page contains the choices in *Silence of the Sea, Book 1* and their outcomes.

Players can shape Marya's personality by increasing her **Sea Princess** or **Earth Virgin** points during the story. By contrast, Sea Princess tends to develop Marya's royalty side and decisiveness as a princess, resulting in a more authoritarian personality when dealing with issues; on the other hand, Earth Virgin tends to show Marya to be more delicate and thoughtful as she mostly uses charms and negotiation skills when dealing with issues.

By increasing Marya's influence and respect among others, the players are required to increase the **Honor** points.

Players can boost their **Boldness** or **Modesty** points to help them overcome adversaries. Boldness is focused on retort and physical attacks like armoring and physical fights, whilst Modesty is focused on Marya's inner forces and empathy towards opponents.

Aside from that, Marya is also endowed with magic power, the players are given a default of 100 Power over the elements. As the power is come from Sea King, there is no place for Marya to increase the power. It is advised to use wisely.
