What is the Color of the Lost Envy?

In the second half of the game, you’ll find yourself returning to the Forest of Myth. Upon your arrival, the Divine Tree will subject you to a series of riddles, yet again in the form of a visual novel. It can be difficult to resist the urge to skip most — if not all — of this section, but if you want to know about the color of the lost envy, that is … highly … discouraged.

Thankfully, that’s covered in the first riddle. It becomes complicated when you consider that the answer to this riddle can change depending on the playthrough. See what I mean when I say you shouldn’t skip this section? Pay close attention to the first story. It’s about a sick boy and the girl who visits him. The color of the lost envy just so happens to be the color of this girl’s eyes. Just pay close attention to how the narrator describes the girl, and there’s no way you’ll get this wrong.
