Hi. Thank you so much for your feedback! We'll keep it in mind!
On the fireplace, you just need to press the correct combination of pictures on tiles (the missing tile confused everyone a little, sorry...).
We'll fix looong black loading screen (after pressing the NEW GAME button) in the next patch! I also think that we need to remove the black screen before tapestry — sometimes it is too long and it раздражают people.
Lavender water has no purpose :)
Thanks a lot for playing!
