Chapter 3 by Fiftyfiftyfifty Fiftyfiftyfifty

What do you do?

Escape.

The three of you flee through a series of tunnels until you finally see the crack of light a distance ahead. At last, the sun. It's piercing through a wooden hatch up a ladder ahead. First, the elf climbs, and then Yiiv is next, so you make your way up the ladder last--no upskirt for you. Her baggy trousers aren't exactly an erotic piece of clothing, though her body is still something else. Both of them are attractive indeed. While you may have no powers, and you may be afraid for your life, one thing still ring true--girls in isekai stories are real hotties.

As you emerge into the world, you gaze in awe at the rolling planes of vibrant grass that seems to stretch on for miles. You see a half dozen little slimes bouncing between bushes. Birds flutter off into the sky from a nearby tree. If you had a sword in-hand, you'd feel ready to adventure.

What am I saying? If I'm just a regular person, or even worse, a person who can't even do what a regular person in this world should be able to do, I can't go off hunting monsters. This is real life! I could be ripped in two!

"We are actually not far from town," Lithvir explains.

"Sorry, but... are you an elf?" you ask as the group begins to walk.

"How is it you know?"

"In my world, we have no magic or anything like that. Just normal technology, like this camera here. But we write stories about elves and wizards and dragons."

Yiiv leans in and taps the camera. "I briefly looked at this, but I've been waiting to take it apart and really figure out what it is exactly. A camera is what you called it? Please tell me what it does. Ooh, I'll do anything!"

"Uh. It takes photographs." You notice neither of them understand so you continue. "You know a painting, right?"

She nods. "Of course I do."

"Imagine if you could point an object at a person, press a button, and then that exact moment in time is immediately turned into not only a painting, but a perfect image of what you were pointing at. It doesn't just have to be a person of course."

"No way!"

"Yeah, but the problem is this thing is digital. It's going to run out of power, and I doubt this world can recharge it. Nor would I have a computer to plug it into in order to get the images off of it. So it's gonna be kinda useless here."

"Hmm. This world sounds amazing. Do you write stories about uh... dwarves?"

You nod. "Yeah that's a common one."

"Sunhearts?"

"What?"

She frowns. "That's what... I am," she mutters.

Lithvir chuckles. "Sunhearts are similar to humans, though they live very far north of here, typically in the Oraang Desert. They are hardy folk, namely in resisting the elements, though I do not know how much you would like to hear a history lesson right now while you are already recovering from everything else."

You rub your head. "Where are we even going to go?"

"Don't worry about that," says Yiiv. "And you'll feel better once we have a safe place to rest."

What do you do?
