A loss is a branch in the journey
Return. Reassess. Go again.
The opening can be won, but the story also advances after a defeat. Separate permanent progress from a temporary run build before choosing whether anything needs to change.
At the restaurant, use available meals, adventurers and departure options to make a specific next-run plan. More power for the Devil still needs a human who can supply it.
Understand the first loss
Read the action before committing it
Compare direct damage, before-after effects and enemy threat range. For another device, check current Windows support and later console intentions.
