The Last Judge jumping out and cold murdering those pilgrims on first encounter is really dark tbh

there's a useful secret technique to make the Judge more manageable

Like the Pilgrimage has always been clearly kind of a scam but these guys made it and the Citadel sent out a robot to murder their asses

Oh yeah?

magma bell reduces the damage of her fire attacks by 1

Oooh, good point

Anyway, I will blow up this robot and destroy the gates so that Sherma can safely pass

if you're wondering if there's a closer bench: nope

I actually don't think it's a bad runback. If you're smooth you can make it without interacting with a single enemy

Oh fun thing I discovered last night: if you drag an enemy over to Shakras’s campsite, she will join the fight.
