Read this encounter
Plan two encounters before spending MP. Lasswell handles early Ice pressure; Fina or Leah can provide Light for the return. Reinspect the enemy after the story transition rather than repeating the first battle’s command queue. Enhanced Wraith Soldiers also take useful Light damage.
Answer the dangerous action
A lone revived Hunger can summon escorts again. Reduce their incoming pressure, then work on the boss so that repeatedly clearing reinforcements does not consume the run. Gravity reduces your HP margin; Poison continues doing damage until cured. Keep separate actions available for those problems.
After the battle
Finish the prisoner rescue and return to Grandport. The next major destination is Siren’s Tower. Do not confuse this required victory with the earlier scripted Umbra defeat.
