3B Aeteperax Redux: Story Danger

[curant]

So I'm a little confused about the story danger at this point. Why is there even a story danger listed if all of the proxies are the Dragon, the victory condition is killing the dragon, and the caves are not closeable?

Because there are other cards that reference the Danger, so one needs to be set. One example is the Ingratiating Minion Barrier.

For what it's worth, here are a few other 3B clarifications:

If you fail the check to defeat a Dragon henchman/villain proxy, the wildcard that you marked *stays* marked until you encounter the next proxy. Beating the dragon is a good thing.

The instructions say, "if there are 3 or more cards in the location, the Dragon is undefeated". (I.e., You must defeat the Dragon with 2 or fewer cards in the location to win.) The Dragon itself is counted when determining whether it is ultimately defeated, so you only vanquish the Dragon when there is either (a) the Dragon and one other card remaining or (b) only the Dragon remaining.

The Dragon card that you ultimately defeat to win can be either a henchman or villain proxy. It doesn't have to be the villain. E.g., If there are two cards left and a henchman proxy is on top of the villain proxy, defeating the henchman proxy will win the scenario.
