Try to attack the monster from a distance as long as possible

This chapter, same as a prologue, starts with a fight which takes place in the wood east from Skogr village. In this battle you control Rook and his daughter, Alette. You'll have to defeat Starving Dredge monster.

Before joining the fight familiarize yourself with the equipment and abilities of your heroes. Both Rook and Alette have bows, so they can attack their targets from a distance. As for their special abilities, Rook has Mark Prey action which will be useful in fights with more allies. And Thread the Needle from Alette can be used right in this battle, but it will be most useful against more enemies at once. Also make sure that Rook doesn't stand in the line of the arrow after activating this ability, because it doesn't distinguish allies from enemies as it is in the case of standard bow's attacks. Initially try to attack Starving Dredge from a distance and when he gets closer to the team, send Rook towards him, because he is better in a melee fight than Alette.

After the fight you'll face the choice how to act when it comes to dealing with more monsters. I do not recommend choosing 1st option (Forget the supplies, let's get back to Skogr) and 3rd one (Do you think you can handle more of them?), because you'll start the journey to Skogr only with 3 units of Supplies. It is best to choose 2nd variant (If we hurry we can gather them before more dredge appear) and that's because main heroes will be able to take with them most of Supplies. Regardless of your choice wait until Rook and Alette reach Skogr village.
