"S-s-s-so... every f-f-four d-days o-o-or so... I c-c-c-come here...?" Selina is hopeful that this might work out without her other... desires... kicking in..."Probably. It varies a bit. How long were you in your world before coming here, and what kind of venom-induced desires were you experiencing?"
Why should it have moved? If we're in the room, the laser can hit us; if we are driven out of the room, we aren't its concern.The dragon seems to be unable to follow us any further, and I suspect that its other attacks are melee-range.That requires that the lasers use SP, that the helmet plus the Bulwark can stop Al from being hurt, and that the dragon is a blithering idiot with no other means of attack. I'm not willing to gamble on the first or the last, and even the second is a bit questionable.So, we take Al with helmet into tanking position while Ciro hits the beast from a distance? That won't last many turns.No, we use Al to tank until it runs out of SP, then hit it with ranged attacks.
Anyway, jumping down the Drop is even more of a gamble, in a way. Sure, it might have a checkpoint or means of ascension, but it might not.1. We can make our own means of ascension.
We could also switch to Riltia and try to find our way back. She could use Guard + the helmet to protect herself.Can we switch? It's been an awfully long time. Besides, I wouldn't be surprised if whatever captured her disabled whatever allows us to switch, or if we can't switch to other siblings.
Also, we don't need Al not to get hurt at all, we need him to not get killed. Unless it can do 20-ish damage, we should be fine.So...your plan is for Al to run in, tank a hit or two, and then hope it ran out of SP, which we don't know if is expended?

"...How..." Selina sounds defeated and doubtful."Um. Well, it depends on what you want to do. If you want to try and keep the symptoms to a minimum, you'll need to...indulge your desires. Just having blood drank every few days would keep it at a manageable level. Engaging in the...other desires is a stop-gap measure, but it's obviously not ideal."
Jessica smiles"Um, sure!"
" ok I'll give her wings, how would you like to come to Yuki's birthday party?
If we plan to use wings, I say we make them before we go down, not after.One of the big reasons I want to go down is because we are on the level with the magic restriction. We can't Bloodshape things right now without an incredibly great roll.
Also, we should scan the dragon. Does scanning something show its attack damage? If not, we should get Goombess to tattle on it, because while my plan may have flaws, it's probably still a less risky option than jumping down the Drop.It doesn't.
Edit: Also, what Tomcost said about the helmet. With that, we should be fine, especially if we can find Riltia.
