If you've played other games like Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma or soon after you start playing this one, you'll quickly realize that increasing your bond with various villagers is at the core of this game. Some of these villagers are special and they can even become dating candidates for the main character.

These candidates are highlighted with a red bar in the profiles menu, and once you've bonded enough with them, you can even marry them and have children. However, the process to do both of these can be quite long, and it's important to know what you're doing.

How To Marry Your Favorite Villager

Before you start thinking about your marriage with the villagers like Ulalaka or Murasame, who unlock early in the story, it's important to remember that there will be many characters unlocking as you progress to the further regions. These characters will get added to the profile section when you first meet them, but you can only raise your bond with them after a certain part of the main story.

If you've unlocked all the potential bachelors and bachelorettes and have the perfect candidate in mind, you can start working towards the marriage process. There are mainly two steps that you need for this:

1. Reach bond level ten with the desired candidate. This can be done by talking to them and hanging out with them every day, and you get much more progress on these if you give them something they like or take part in an activity they prefer.
2. After that, you also have to finish all their bond quests. The bond quests start at level three and go until level nine. However, after the level six bond quest, you'll have to commit to dating them to continue the rest. Though you can date multiple characters at the same time in Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma.

Once you have both of the above sorted out for your favorite candidate, you can head over to their profile to see all nine stars lit up. When this happens, you can progress to the next step of the marriage where you first have to plant a plum sapling in the courtyard behind your shrine and wait a few days for it to give you a branch.

After getting the branch, you can head over to the cooking pot and make yourself the Divine Spirits using one Rice and one Wisteria. You can find the latter near the Vast Plateau teleport statue in the Spring Village outskirts by chopping the Wisteria tree. Once you have both the items, you can talk to your desired villager and invite them to the Fateweaver Shrine.

How To Have A Kid

After you've married one of the villagers in Azuma, the next step is naturally having a kid with them. Five days after your marriage, your partner will ask for a chat as soon as you wake up where they will bring up the topic of having a kid. Here, you'll get an option to go through with this or reject their proposal for the time being.

If you reject them, they'll ask the same question again after another five days. However, if you accept, you'll be taken back to the Fateweaver Shrine where you'll be given a Turnip. Plant this turnip beside the plum tree in your shrine's courtyard and it'll grow for the next ten days before triggering another cutscene where you'll cut open the Turnip to get your baby.

Can You Marry Multiple Candidates?

Since you can date multiple people at the same time in Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma, you might want to do the same for marriage. The good news is that you can, but it works a little differently and can't exactly be called a divorce. Around ten days after your marriage, Woolby will talk to you about a new presence at the Fateweaver Shrine at the start of the day.

Once that happens, you can get to the shrine and head to the little bit sticking out on the right side of the map. You'll find the Rewoven Fates mechanic here. You can use this to take yourself to an alternate timeline where your marriage with the initial candidate won't be there, but a few quests will also go back in time:

• Your bond quests with every character including the one you married go back to the bond six quest, so you have to date the candidates again. However, your bond level is saved.
• If you have a kid, they'll not be present in the village for the new fate that you start from here.

If you finished the true ending of the story, you can still access all the areas from it even after changing your fate world. You can also move back to your original fate world where you married the first candidate at any point to continue from where you left off. However, to start another marriage, you'll have to properly date your next desired candidates.

After doing their quest on bonds seven, eight, and nine, you can then ask them out just like you did the first time. You can have your full life with this second candidate here including kids, and you can also try selecting other options while getting ready for a kid in the Fateweaver Shrine. This way, you can marry as many characters as you want in Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma.
