Use the quick links below to jump to specific sections, or read on for a complete walkthrough of Caldarus' romantic journey in *Fields of Mistria*:
Unlocking Caldarus as a Romanceable Character in Fields of Mistria
To begin your romance with Caldarus, you must break the Fire Seal located on Floor 60 of the mines. This requires offering four specific items: a Sealing Scroll, a Faceted Rock Gem, an Emerald, and a Rockroot. Breaking the seal triggers a cutscene where the Mines Priestess demands the farmer leave. As the farmer's health diminishes, Caldarus intervenes, transforming into his human form, bestowing the Dragon's Breath spell upon you before retreating to the Deep Woods. This transformation unlocks his romance path. You can now give him gifts and engage in daily conversations. Use the Dragon's Breath spell to permanently unlock his temple in the Deep Woods on your map.
Caldarus' Heart Events in Fields of Mistria
Currently, Caldarus begins with six hearts, the maximum level in the game. While no dedicated heart events exist yet, this may change with future updates. The initial story includes two significant cutscenes. The first, a dream sequence, introduces Mistria's magic system. The second depicts Caldarus rescuing the farmer after the Fire Seal is broken, revealing his human form. Both are part of the main storyline.
The March 2025 update introduces a date opportunity during the Shooting Star Festival on Summer 28.
The Shooting Star Festival
This end-of-summer event lets you take any romanceable NPC with four or more hearts on a date to the Summit. Since Caldarus starts with six hearts, you're automatically eligible. Gift him the Star Brooch before 8 PM on Summer 28, then meet him afterward to begin the date. This will trigger a cutscene. Prepare for a philosophical discussion about connections, souls, and the nature of storytelling! The date concludes with an invitation to continue stargazing at his temple.
