I believe I encountered a bug. Ill describe what I think the conditions are:
1: In a new game +, activate Alicia automation
2: Get to festival of greed while keeping corruption below her need to open the first gate
3: When Festival of greed is over, Alicia is shown as the controlled character in the top right, however the screen is black.
Sorry if this is not the correct spot to post this, however I'm not aware of anywhere else.
