He's not regenerating. Hit and run is clearly viable.

He's faster than raziel. We got away cause he was tied up.

Diplomacy can't always work, and all of you obviously need to grow stronger so situations like these don't get so dire. Brainstorm ways to grow, and strengthen your personal abilities.
>Lucia: Try not to make any snide remarks about how Emily abilities, and the rest of the group's plan of diplomacy wasn't working. You just came out of an experience where your powers weren't working, and it was terrifying and demoralizing for you. Think about how it felt to have Derrick as a positive influence to kickstart your growth and reunion with ira, and how you might be able to do the same for your friends.

Derrick is trying to set the tracks towards a simple progression. If you are going to escape this nightmare you'll need clear and simple tasks to do rather than trying to make sense of the big picture.

1. All Lomam bosses (zendo, dragons, Lethos)
2. The rest of Loham bosses (Vanity, Uilos)
3. The rest of Locad bosses (Audrey, ???)

Reasons:
-Uilios is probably the second easiest next to Ruu to go the peaceful route with and, well, it seems the kids could use a win after having to run away from two monsters in a row now.
-Vanity is weird, but we can deal with weird... at least she's not full-on psycho like Audrey seems to be.
-Which, Speaking-of... we are SO not ready for Audrey. Peaceful route or otherwise, i feel like Emily, Lucas and Derrick need to all sharpen their, Good-cop, Bad-cop, Scary-cop routine before tackling that ball of crazy... perhaps starting out with someone who's just a little weird like Vanity might work better.
-Picking the first option with the sky-dragons will lead us to a boss-fight we are probably very ill-equipped to deal with right now, as those things are old AF and probably have the least humanity left of all the boss monsters, a peceful resolution could be very difficult verging on the impossible right now.

One more thing to consider: Leveling Bambino or Reggie up, since Reggie is right in that they're pretty vulnerable right now.
I'm thinking Reggie even gets a bonus if he's the most leveled-up in the party, but that's a long way off at this point.

Things aren't particularly bad, that doesn't mean they are good either.

You could make a case for doing Lethos early, but Vanity can be a problem in the real world and I kinda want to try dealing with her whole stalking deal.

I really, really love Lucidstuck, if you do too, you should check all the fanart i've done for it :3c

Or go check LS's very own first fanadventure!

You regret to admit Reggie has a point, from all the encounters you recall, very rarely were you gung-ho about making a corpse. Even if you did a few times, there isn't enough souls to go around evenly unless you're looking for a bloodbath...

>Derrick: Remember that Vanity is a boss monster. Have Reggie read her stats, then decide how to proceed. You may want to find another monster and use ruu's tears to level up before fighting Vanity.

RE: Lucidstuck II
>Derrick: Vanity is after you, so you will need to be out in Loham by yourself to lure her out. You can call for the others once she reveals herself. See if Lucia can use Iris from a distance so you could hide her under your hat, and consider taking reggie as a sword so he won't count as an extra person.

You are now Garreth, having just gone to sleep.

Or rather, awakened.

You get dressed in your equipment, and quickly take a look at your inventory.

You investigate your drape-walls. Softly poking at them does cause them to fold and move. Definitely not solid.

>It appears you do not. We mean a sort of "alter ego," or a deeper aspect of yourself, tied to parts of your abilities as guardians. From what we know, they're best accessed while alone, so you're properly able to self reflect and can be consulted to gain lucidity. Now seems like a good a time as any for you to begin accessing yours.
