Yea, Im playing on the easiest setting there is, still pretty hard for me. I am a rookie gamer at best.

Thanks for the help to all. I finally made it through the first dragon part. Now Im in that fjords area and keep dying in the cave behind waterfall. Seems all the monstera are 6 or 7 lvls above me. Im at 20, Ive used my creature, my potions and most of my weapons and spells. Im hoping I can find a way to lvl up and then go back in. Doesnt look like I can though. You're right, this game doesnt hold your hand at all.
