This monster is not too tough if your reflexes are somewhat good. Just make sure you keep Haste on at all times. He's got three attacks, and his favorite is breathing fire, which he'll sweep in front of him, and it'll hurt if Aya gets caught in it. Just run behind him when he does it, even if it means you have to cram yourself between him and the wall; ten points of damage for touching it is much better than two hundred for getting burnt. It's also got a homing energy blast that requires charging. That's a tough attack to avoid, since there's no real safe spot against it; have Haste on and rely on your reflexes. Finally, it'll try to bite you if you get in front of it. As long as you stay behind it and keep your HP high, you shouldn't have any problem.
