Have you seen Dacyn since he hid in scenario 1? Looking at the save file, Dacyn still seems to be hiding with only 4 xp, and the stats from S01 suggest you managed to kill all the enemy leaders before Dacyn reappeared.

Release Packaged Version
22.04 LTS (Jammy) 1.16.2"
You're running the Long Term Support version of Ubuntu, which is good for having a stable system (bugfixes for the core software), but doesn't get the latest version of games. The next Ubuntu LTS should come out in April 2024, with Wesnoth 1.16.12 (or 1.16.11) and Wesnoth 1.18.

For getting the latest onto Ubuntu, I'd suggest Flatpak, from the instructions on https://wiki.wesnoth.org/WesnothBinariesLinux . We're close enough to the release of 1.18 that I'd suggest going for the nightly dev build instead of 1.16; there have been a lot of changes to Eastern Invasion in the dev branch, so it would mean playing again from the start, but if you've been missing all of Dacyn's dialogue then that's probably a good idea anyway.

I did a bit of savefile editing so that you can play on from the current position, if you want to.

Addendum:

As a clue, I played the first (?) scenario where Mr Darcy disappears, and I managed (after a fair amount of retries) to beat the 3 enemy leaders before Dacyn returned to show the hidden floor door. Maybe that is the kink.

cheers!

Octalot - thanksalot! I did not reload in order for me to see your reply.

We came to the same conclusion. And on the side note - I can't get flatpak to work.

Back to the bottle!

(and also, finish Vrug with your savefile modification: Where is Dacyn? Not on map, not in recall. Edit 3: In the next scenario, halfway)

Check the message that appears upon loading the save. :) He'll be present in the next scenario.
