<div class="floatleft">(http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u649/wigglebiscuit/Lydia/HumeFemale_zps9b0dc3da.jpg)</div>Prior to entering the Dungeon, Lydia had a theory about how to defeat it, an idea, born from her own views of humanity, and nurtured through many nights spent studying the successes and failures of those who came before her.<br/><br/>The root of the idea is this: the Dungeon seeks to drive contestants apart. Therefore, the key to defeating the Dungeon is to do just the opposite. In theory, it is a simple plan. In practice, with her most dreaded enemy creeping inexorably toward her, it is much more difficult to realize. But if she casts her idea aside now, at the very start of things, it is cast aside forever. So Lydia ignores her fears and her own instincts and alters course, bearing straight for Shugar as she struggles helplessly against the mimic.<br/><br/>Nobody escapes a mimic alone. It's nearly as rare as escaping the Void. They're just too strong. Unarmed, Shugar has no chance. She'll perish. The Void will get her, and there won't be any coming back.<br/><br/>As Lydia closes, she draws her sword and launches into an attack of the tentacles coiling around Shugar's limbs.
