When I go there I just walk through it like any other part of the map not yet open for exploration. Is there something that needs to happen for it to actually let me in, like a quest or something? All my main story quests except for the sloth demon are completed, but still nothing. Is my save bugged out, or is there some sort of sequence I haven't triggered?

The first room on the left where you can change Aura's disposition towards people, you can insert Alicia into various relationships, but also after a while you can swap Alicia higher up those relationship by interacting with the other person on the platforms. So in that case you need to interact with rose to switch her with Alicia. That's probably the least obvious because there is a time delay before that interaction becomes available and nothing directs you to do it. But it's worth checking everything - the bin in the knowledge room, the computer in the knowledge room, the thing in the bottom left of the knowledge room, all the platforms in the interests room, all the objects in the appearance room. 

Assuming you have let a decent number of days pass without anything seeming to progress then there is something in the mindscape you have missed, so it's worth combing back over. 

Are you sure you have interacted with everything you can in the mindscape?  It's worth checking it again because there are one or two that aren't totally obvious. Also some of the changes in the mindscape need multiple days to pass for their effects to take hold and cause events in the real world which will in turn unlock new actions in the mindscape. 

Hey there, I just wanted to get in touch to express just how brilliant this project is, from its concept down to just about every element of its execution. It's so ambitious that it blows my mind, and it blends in-depth, well-written story with some of the best exploration of the mind control/corruption/seduction kink that I've ever seen. I've been a consumer and even writer of heroine peril erotica for almost a decade, and what you've done with this story is just so impressive. The patience of it, the pacing, the characters and dialogue, the erotic scenarios, the long, slow burn of Aura's corruption, and the execution of all the brilliant ideas at play here are all so on point. I can't speak for others, but for me the kink factor of Aura's peril is through the roof precisely because of how well realised her character is and how well paced the process has been of getting to her corruption scenes - together with how great the whole conceit of getting her internal dialogue and the encroaching pink thoughts showing her gradual surrender to obedience/submissiveness and hedonism or lust. This whole project deserves way more praise, and I can't flatter it enough.

That is all to say I'm a big fan, and more than anything I just wanted to acknowledge how amazing a job you are doing with it. I have some suggestions/fan requests, but none of that is to knock your vision of this and please ignore it all at your discretion.  Something that would be great if it were remotely possible (although I understand why it wouldn't be) would be to have some lewd scenes that could be multi-staged and as a result not be anchored only to one base CG. I know that is unrealistic, but it would be great for some lewd scenes to be able to progress or escalate from one thing to another - and it could just involve reusing assets that you already have rather than needing to commission new ones. For example, the drug dealer scene could begin with the drugged blow job and then move to the sex scene, or any of the Herman scenes to come could begin with a lengthy kissing scene with the CGs you already have before progressing to whatever more intimate scene would follow with the new CG. The benefit of this, other than drawing out the lewd scene in general, would be to even more slowly play the broader scene of Aura's seduction/submission.

Which leads me to the main request I'd make... keep doing what you're doing with the slow, thorough brainwashing scenes where Aura is patiently unravelled - they're outstanding! If anything, I want them to be longer and more thorough. All the sweet memories scenes are amazing, particularly with Arwin, and I would love to see many more scenes like that, even if it means continually using the sweet memories conceit. Honestly, I would have loved another scene with the drug dealer giving a drugged blowjob and using the opportunity to implant some more lewd suggestions, like you did with the drinking scenes. If Aura got drugged before the sex with the drug dealer, so he could corrupt her during sex, that would also be a great scene. Generally, the whole thing with slow mind manipulation during these scenes is amazing, and I hope you keep it up - that whole conceit is amazing and I'd love to see you do more with it. By a very similar token, I really hope the Herman scenes that are now set up to follow (another brilliant idea with the corrupting ring, btw) don't rush too much and keep up this style of slow mental manipulation, especially now that Aura is at the disadvantage that she almost has to submit herself to being patiently seduced/corrupted/conditioned. It would be easy to rush that scene to the finish for obvious reasons, but it's so well set up to now follow that formula of seducing her thoughts that I really hope Herman feels like taking his time dominating her and turning her into his obedient wife. It's why reusing the kissing CG for a lengthy scene of kissing as he eases Aura into submitting to the ring could be good. Either way, I'm very excited to see where you go with the all the Herman scenes to come following the development with the ring. I hope he thoroughly savours his new position of power and the new task of using the ring to condition Aura into his willing, submissive wife.

Sorry I went on and on there. Thanks again for everything you've done on this project so far - it's truly outstanding! Honestly, I'm on the verge of writing fanfiction for this, because the setup and ideas here are just so good.
