Build 0.3.26 (Mostly Bug Fixes)

I haven't been able to follow the schedule exactly as planned but I wanted to continue releasing bug fixes when I can. This is primarily for new players or people who encounter game breaking bugs.

I've added new monsters but animation remains the biggest bottleneck for me so the surrender scenes will be delayed awhile more. I apologize for the long wait. Work continues on the final dungeon, bosses and various other spoilery story bits. The visual design of the dungeon is well underway as well as the basic layout with placeholder encounters.

• Added a scene with the buddies in the Tavern post Aqueducts that will be expanded on later
