Yes, all three romances in The Blood of Dawnwalker can be pursued in a single playthrough. Nothing in the writing locks you out of one for pursuing another. The real limit is Time Segments, because three full quest chains is a serious chunk of a campaign that is already on a clock.
The Three Options
Anca is the herbalist in Laslea and a childhood friend of Coen. Hers is the only romance that can start in the Prologue, and it is the most forgiving in tone. Our Anca romance guide covers the chain and the Font of Life decision that can quietly sour it.
Lacra is a vrakhir, the only non-human option, and the most guarded of the three. Her entire arc is night-only, which makes her the most schedule-hostile. Our Lacra romance guide has the full path.
Crake, whose real name is Marat, is the one most players never find. He is tied to the rebellion against the Vrakhiri rather than to Coen’s home life, so the arc only surfaces if you engage with that thread.
Crake’s Quest Chain
His arc runs long, through eight quests:
- The Firebrand
- Shadows in the Woods
- Where Loyalties Lie
- What Hunts the Night
- What Moves the Dead
- Who Pulls the Strings
- Distant Shadows
- A Closer Look
That length is the reason he is easy to miss. The early quests read as rebellion plot rather than romance, so players who are not deliberately following the thread tend to drift off it.
The Real Constraint
Vale Sangora runs on eight Time Segments by day and eight by night, and every quest, conversation and journey spends them. Three romance chains, one of which is night-locked and another of which is eight quests long, is a very large share of that budget.
If you want all three, treat it as the plan from the start rather than something to attempt late. Front-load Anca in the Prologue, since she is available before the clock gets tight, and be deliberate about which nights go to Lacra. Our time limit guide covers how segments are actually consumed.
The alternative, and the one most players end up happier with, is picking one and doing it properly. Rushing three chains means taking fewer optional conversations in each, and those conversations are where the writing is.

No. There is no exclusivity check. The limiting factor is Time Segments, not jealousy.
Which romance is easiest?
Anca, because she starts in the Prologue and is available during the day.
Which is hardest to fit in?
Lacra, because her entire questline can only be progressed at night.
