Last Scenario is a role playing game made in RPGMaker by SCF. A rather typical kind of rpg, but with enough twists and an interesting story to make the journey well worth taking.

The action in Entalar picks up at the prison just as Hilbert & Zawu arrive. They'll be looking for Phantom in the deepest levels of the prison, far lower than Zawu's normally allowed access. That just means they get to bop anything that dares stand in their way, right?

There's not many new enemies around the area, but the Tiahuanacus are the most dangerous. While their physicals aren't anything to write home about besides Crush carrying a chance of silence, Zap is lightning elemental and hits quite hard (250+ damage to a single target) and can inflict enfeeble while Static Field is slightly weaker and carries no status ailment trickery, but it hits all party members.

The dungeon isn't anything special to write home about. The first couple of floors have a bunch of rooms to check. Some are locked, but others contain chests. There's a Ceramic Coat (armor with lightning resistance that Zawu would have really liked a couple minutes earlier to prevent a zappy death she took), Throw spellcard (Sacrifices a weapon in your inventory to do damage to a target for no mp. Launch, the crisis ability, sacrifices the caster to do damage to a target for 44 mp), Frost Shard (attack item that casts the third tier ice spell, Iceray), and Magma Stone (like the Frost Shard, but casts Inferno, the third tier fire spell).

When you hit the second save point, you'll want to toss the Flame Amulet from long ago onto Zawu along with a White Gown on her & Hilbert at the bare minimum. Proceeding north leads to what Entalar thinks is a viable option for a guardian...a Fire Dragon. I suppose being as big as it is might deter some people from escaping.

As you'd probably expect, the Fire Dragon has a couple fire based moves called Fire Breath & Flames of Fury. The former does ~300 damage and hits both party members while the latter does a bit more, but hits a single target and can inflict chaos. By far the dragon's deadliest attacks, but there's two problems with that.

First, Flames of Fury's chaos effect is blocked by the duo wearing White Gowns. Secondly, Zawu's Flame Amulet means she's basically unkillable in this fight unless the dragon goes on a physical rampage which, given its curiously low strength and no party hitting physical skills, is not going to be a likely outcome you'll see.

The Fire Dragon comes in with 5750 hp, immunity to fire, resistant to ice, and weak to water. It has a Flaming Sphere to steal (weapon for Thorve that deals fire damage) and drops the very nice Dragon Armour (usual good defensive stats and confers a +15 boost to strength which is going right to Matilda as soon as possible).

Since there's no real danger of dying in this fight for Zawu, she can throw Enlight on herself and go wild with Waterfall spam, healing Hilbert if his health drops below 350. Hilbert can join in on the Waterfall spam after he's stolen the Flaming Sphere and Enlight'd himself.

After the fight, Zawu makes a good point...going to such lengths to keep Phantom locked up was more to keep people like her & Hilbert out. Ortas isn't worried about Phantom's strength, but rather the knowledge he has.

After a lovely convo between Ortas & Lorenza, there seems to be a big info dump incoming. After Zawu takes another zappy death in a random battle, the duo finally makes it to where Phantom is being held.

More next time!
