Read this encounter
Cloud’s Water Surge or an available Water spell can supply the element while Fina retains recovery. Check Paralysis cures before pushing the main enemy toward its low-health change. Do not treat high physical damage as a substitute for a prepared transition.
Answer the dangerous action
The protected body, explosion and four new targets are one encounter sequence. Once the split occurs, stop spending attacks on the protected original and finish the Great Bombs. Heal before the transition when possible; an interruptible warning does not prove every scripted explosion can be skipped.
After the battle
Report the rescue to Borin and head toward Mobliz Shipyard. Save before its upper story event so the timed escape has a useful recovery point.
