More help?

[Beclem]

I sure as hell ain't gonna beat that dragon in the shop, not for a little while

It's a bird.. I killed it with 2 hits on my first visit with Steiner.

especially if I can't get out of town to gain more EXP. I only have Steiner and Dagger, and some other schmuck that's an add-on.

Hey! Don't be dissing Marcus! He's awesome!

But yeah, as the person above says, just go to the inn.
