Headnote: This entry is very dialogue-heavy, so I'm writing it like a script to reduce confusion as to who's talking. On to the story!

[everyone sitting around a table]
Claive: "We're going up against the biggest, baddest demon in existence. We need to think of every weakness we can exploit if we're gonna win."

Doriyan: "Okay, first off, what all do we know about demons?"

Shayra: "Well, all demons and unholy entities originate from Nessus, a realm of unending night and intense heat. I'd bet living in that environment would make one vulnerable to cold temperatures."

Chai: "The fact that this unnatural twilight and climate warming started after they invaded supports that."

Doriyan: "I've seen that sunlight can inflict severe burns on them, like a super-fast sunburn."

Shayra: "Holy water is caustic to demonic bodies. They also seem to be hurt more by divine weaponry."

Claive: "Okay, we've got coldness, holy water, sunlight, and with our Soul Weapons, [Claive and Doriyan place their glaive and sword on the table] we've got divine weapons covered. And, if I got the materials, I could make some UV spotlights."

Chai: "I can create a zone of cold with my ice magic."

Shayra: "If I couldn't do much else, I could teleport around and operate those spotlights and keep them locked on the target."

Claive: "Well, everything's set except for holy water. Where can we get any holy water?"

Doriyan: "I remember from a long time back the priest of that church on Ridgeview told me there are barrels of holy water in the church cellar."

Chai: "How will we hit it with the water, though?"

Claive: "We're going to need water balloons; hundreds of them!"
