Many villagers in Kilima (and beyond) are open and available for something deeper than friendship. In Kilima, it is custom to give a pin to your lover to symbolize your love and devotion to each other.
Who knows? Maybe if you get to know someone long enough, you may find yourself falling for them. Or, you may fall for multiple people – in Palia it’s common and accepted to have multiple love interests or lovers. Though keep in mind: you can only wear one pin at a time!
