Found some time to play a few more episodes – made it to Kabeleh, found the exit from Shio. Down there, I defeated the green representative of the Deer Duchy. – IMHO, there’s probably no need to buff him (at least on a normal/easy difficulty), as he already outmatches the enemy troops in strength by almost three times, plus the hero’s stats are quite impressive, despite his relatively low level.
