Don't blow it up yet.
Wait till the party is at low health and coming back to base.
And then throw searchbots at them.

Though have Ciro make a ranged weapon first and absorb the sword.
+1.

Also, have Cherish heal Riltia and Slog (who is in 1-hit-kill territory - well, with 4d4 attacks on the table, we all are, but especially Slog), put a Bulwark on Riltia, and, and... erm... give that tie to Al as well.

I want to see at least one more room of this hive before it becomes an impregnable fortress!

This sounds like an actual plan. +1

I think the SP fountain should merely contain magic soap that washes off all magic buffs (that have been cast with SP).

And sorry, folks, I shall try to be more dramatically untimely with my future GENIUS suggestions. :(

The classic D.M. approach is to leave everything as-is and just buff all future enemies to account for cheese. Hence why it is okay to be a party of power-gamers, or a party devoid of power-gamers, but to be a non-power-gamer in a party with them is generally suicide...

Hrmm, I recall some trope somewhere about giving ideas to the G.M.. Did it involve "???, profit"?

Anyways Switch to Riltia and charge to the right. We are all going to die anyway, may as well make it glorious...

Between the random speech style changes, creepy portrait, and (possibly involuntary?) deceit, I think it's likely that Riltia is suffering from a split personality, demonic (angelic?) possession, or something weirder.

Thinking more about it, Yandere Triangle Riltia and the mysterious figures also imply that there's something up with her.

A split personality would certainly count as a narrative gimmick, as well.

Edit: It just hit me. Riltia prayed to a goddess, right? Wasn't it a goddess statue that wanted us to kill her?

Fake-edit: It was just a regular staute—or the first one was, at least. I don't feel like searching the index to find the second statue.

 It's the weekend, I believe that FFS has a report to submit or else he'll face the arduous task of giving himself a full review and disciplinary hearing. :)

So, assuming that Riltia is possessed, influenced, or altered the correct approach is to reRiltia her. What is the most emphatically Riltia thing that we can impose upon Riltia in order to make her more Riltia?

She is obsessed with Ciro, but making Ciro dislike her is not the way to go. That might just make her side with Oric in desperation or something.
We could coerce Riltia into professing her love for Ciro? We could barter with Riltia internally using the shipping chart as a bartering chip.
