It still hurts a bit but everything is fine. Or so they say.

Ingratiating

I arranged what I found out after talking with the saved people. They might not know that but they now owe me.

From what I managed to find, those people were part of a merchant caravan which moved between the oases.

After seeing them from a close range I confirmed that this is not the real world as I know it.

There were two males: a huge orc warrior and a dwarven ‘ballistiary’. And there were two females: an elven scout and a human priest.

While the former category is stronger and are more useful for my survival, the females could be used to earn myself money, and money is…

For now, I just helped them herd the surviving pack animals and said that I am a 'planemancer'.

"It is a miracle we all survived. If the beasts continued attacking, neither of would've survived." (Scout)

“I have no idea how it happened so we must be careful.” (Warrior)

“Good idea, brother. We should keep going. And take that child with us. The desert claimed enough lives for this time.” (Bali… archer? Crossbowman? No idea)

They brought me with the caravan. Originally they were soldiers of their caravan but now it is their duty to deliver the goods to a town at the edge of this desert. Otherwise...

Onee-chan, why are you hurrying so much?

"If the owners' clan suspects us of stealing the goods and the lives of their kin, we will be hunted forever. We sworn to protect them and should we fail to, the blood feud will start." (Priest)

At least this adventure should be worth it. The longer I stay away from those blockhead sisters, the better.
