"Okay." They said following you back to the Hotel.
Such a disappointing haul. Too many sentient creatures to justify harvesting ingredients here... Perhaps a change of scenery would be more to your-
A flash of light later, and all three of you are on the frozen tundra of another world Hisako, and Alice start shivering quickly.

"Okay... well, this is bad. Gimme a sec", Erina said... before leaping super-high in the sky. 12 in Acrobatics to leap straight up as high as I can without powering up.
7 in Intelligence to check my surroundings when I'm up there in search of civilization to head towards before my cousin and friend freeze to death.

You jump high in the air. You see a camp nearby populated by a trio of 10' humanoids with clubs and surrounded by a foursome of mammoths.

Erina
Erina landed back on her feet next to her friends.
"I've found a camp... with a huge campfire... but also huge men with clubs along with some mammoths. I don't know if they are hostile, but you two are going to need heat soon, so let's go", she said, urging them on ahead. "If they won't let us rest by the fire, I will protect you."

They nod and head along within minutes you arrive at the camp.... The giants watch you but don't mov yet Just observing you.

"Um... hello? Do you, perchance, understand me? ...It's very cold, and my friends and I would like to ask if you would be willing to share the warmth of your fire with us, please?" Erina asked. 6 in Social Skills to attempt to convince them to let us get warmed up next to the fire.

The giants just roar at you, and smash their clubs against the ground trying to threaten you away.

Erina
"...Seriously? We just want some warmth!" Erina said, annoyed. She gestured as though she was rubbing her arms from being cold and shivering, followed by pointing at the fire. "Cold. It's cold! We need fire. Get it? ...Geez, it's not like us benefitting from it too will leave less warmth for you! The fire doesn't burn less hot if there's more people around it!" she protested. 6 in Social Skills to try and make them get my point even though we clearly don't seem on the same page, lol.

The giants grunt and grumble, but move over by what appears to me makeshift pots of some sort of cheese, as if protecting it.

Erina
"I mean... sure, protect the cheese. That's not what we're here for. Um... thanks?", Erina said, shrugging. "Well... looks like we do get to enjoy some heat. Come in closer", she said to her cousin and friend.

Your cousin, and assistant come up and sit by the fire slipping off their shoes as they hugged each other for added warmth.

Erina
"Okay, so... here we are, by a huge fire, merely tolerated by a group of giants and their mammoths, in the middle of crazy cold winter conditions. So... what do we do? Do I try to figure out if there's any civilization more welcoming than those guys close by and we make a run for it? Do I cook us some special recipe to allow us to leave this place behind? Something else? What do you two think?" Erina asked, sitting down with them.

"We can try to find a town nearby." Alice said. "I think I saw some lights in the distance."
Meanwhile out of nowhere in a burst of flame a strange black goo emerges from nowhere, and impales both Giants to death on several spiked chains!

Erina
"Really? ...Nice. I must have missed it. And where was t-" Erina began, only to be interrupted by... something... slaughtering the two giants out of nowhere. In an instant, the Gourmet Huntress was on her feet, watching the... creature (?)... with suspicion. "What the heck is that thing?" she pondered out loud, waiting to see if it would attack them as well. 7 in Intelligence to watch the goo closely so I can react if it attacks us too.
12 in Acrobatics into defense. (Total ph.defense: 26)

The glowing green black slime lunged at Erina... and then dropped inert.
