"We should get going. It's only a matter of time before the next monster comes for us".

"This place is the home of dreams... The Isekai Kingdom".

But this place of dreams was dead. Withering away as a nightmare, drifting in a land of solace. Jogging North to avoid further battle was no better of a sight.
