brief update, will play more tonight most likely.

i ride to camp, turn it to night, and head out. as i roam along i see a giant monster, bit of an odd one to face but let's do-- THAT'S a Spitzfire? i see. it takes a long while and a bunch of dead monsters but i finally get Serena on the pep at the same time as the rest of us, Wild Side, beat. did it just before night was over and i'm already LV15. still, i can see the next camp but don't want to go there just yet. i loop around and two crab monsters randomly appear. i fight the first and heeey Metal Slime! i'm almost at the point where i could rush Metal Slash but fortunately it doesn't run away before i kill it, gaining over 2000 EXP and having all but Serena level up to 16. that should do it.

around this corner i find a treasure chest, as i go further down i find more shiny stuff, and that's the only treasure Erik said there was. so off to camp. Sylvando being serious is far, far better than his standard flippant, and his smartass is just as good as serious. if i get more of those, i'm in. i decide to reset my skill points for the first time so i can have Metal Slash. i was gonna aim for just one or two skills but if i gotta get rid of all of a category, alright. i do it and there we go, my two main killers have been rushed. while i'm at it i check Serena's grid out and get her Devil's Delight, so that's 2 people good for demons, 1 for dragons, 1 for metal. i check Erik out and... technically i can get Boomerangs to do heavy damage to slime and metal monsters without losing too much but i'm not sure i want to do that just yet. for now i think i'm fine and will keep prioritizing dual wield.

satisfied with this i rush on down the corridor, 0 treasures available. credit where it's due, Faris' attempt to run away was smooth. unfortunately for him monsters are less dumb than he thinks and there it is.

that's right Sylvando, you tell that prince to stop being a shit.
i am quite alright with talking shit like this. anyway, battle time. pretty easy and straightforward. Sap -> pummel him, find whether Frizz or Crack is better, continue beating him down, healing as necessary, until fight ends. 1440 EXP get, Serena learns Midheal now that she's 16, cutscene time.

...are we supposed to believe these chains by Sylvando are good enough to hold the monster down?
...can we test that theory out with this prince. kid, are you sure your dad just doesn't want you dead at this pace? fully agreeing with Sylvando here too, playing this farce is a dumb idea that's only going to get worse. i get to the edge of this area for a shiny object, a Yellow Eye, and with that run back to camp to save.
