Hi there, Zeroken09!

Canse is a valuable member of your party, and where possible we would like for players to choose who accompanies them.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

There is a hidden optional secret that will protect Canse from his "accident", as well as give him a neat set of armor!

While I won't reveal the exact secret, here is a general checklist:

• Make sure your Relationship with Canse is over 25
• Make sure you have spoken to Canse at least once at the camp
• While beneath the Temple of Io, keep an eye out for a key (you may need to "forcefully" take it from someone)
• Once you find the special key in the Catacombs under the Temple of Io, make sure you have Canse in your party and find the hidden, blue chest. 

If you make sure to do/meet all of the above, Canse will avoid having the "accident" and he will continue to be a party member after the events in the Catacombs.

Thank you for this post, and I hope this information can help you keep Canse as a party member. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions or comments!

Thank you for supporting us!
