Some tricky misprints, but other than that this was quite a pleasant stroll and the endgame is not too difficult either.

I find that Chaliceas puzzles are nearly always elegant. If she were to improve the difficulty of the solve she would be right up there with some of the best setters. However, she does provide encouragement for new solvers, which is very important.

I have basically the whole thing but stuck on two clues -

2d WHAT HELPS ONE TO SET (see?) EACH REMEDY WHEN SUFFERING - i have .R.E.E.E

... some kind of eye?!

and 21 A SUBSIDIARY AIMS TO PURCHASE REMNANTS, WE'RE TOLD - B.END.

I'm losing my mind. Unless I've gone wrong somewhere. Please help!

2d, yes. Anagram of ea remedy. It’s in the dictionary.

2a. Unusual word, starting with a homophone of word for purchase, and then plural aims

3a the definition is the last 9 words. “Scrub” “Rid” and “Er” is the wordplay.
