A Moth's Inner Compass - Custom NPC Aurel

🦋 **Welcome to our new friends in Stardew Valley! **

Aurel is a middle-aged lepidopterist who has just moved to the valley to study butterflies and moths—small creatures rarely seen in her homeland. But she hides a secret in her heart, and worries that this secret will prevent her from living in the valley for a long time. She's cheerful, calm, and optimistic, but this secret worry is a blind spot that needs a little help.

✨ Main features

  • **Full plot line**: Contains 13 heart events, spanning 10 heart levels
  • **Rich Dialogues**: More than 250 basic dialogues, seasonal random dialogues make interactions more vivid
  • **Strong Friendships**: Developed deep friendships with Willy, Emily and Linus
  • **Exclusive Residence**: Her private living area accessible by boat via the beach
  • **Festival Participation**: Participate in all festival activities to add a new atmosphere to the festival

🎭 Compatibility

Aurel is compatible with the following mods, each of which adds 20 new lines of dialogue for her:

  • **East Scarp**
  • **Eli and Dylan**
  • **Jorts and Jean the Helper Cats**
  • **Stardew Valley Expanded (SVE)**

💡 *As of v1.0.7, this mod no longer conflicts with FIASA or Cape Stardew! *

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
