My Knight Rescuer is a Jerk! So Why should I ignore the Prince?

"Always remember, no matter how much a fae may seem like they experience emotions, no matter how human like a fae may behave...a fae can never be a human." The Keybearer. A young maiden from another world foretold by ancient prophesy, destined to collect the seven keys and save the world. Surely that's the kind of story that finds some plucky high schooler dreaming of adventure and whisks them off to find their true love, right? Overworked salary women like Emily have long passed the point where such fantasies can come true, and even if they did, it's not like she'd know the first thing about what to do. ...So of course, nobody even bothered to ask her before dropping her into an entirely new world full of magic and danger. Like the three hungry orcs eyeing her as soon as she wakes up. "What do you mean I can sense the keys if I use magic?! What magic?!" If Emily could, she'd have immediately issued a rejection letter, but unfortunately, the only way back is to finish her quest somehow. But it's not all danger and confusion. The knight who rushed into battle to save her is charming and kind and gorgeous, and the beautiful and lonely prince has a soft and kind smile only for her. If everyone she meets along the way is like them... Well. It can't be that bad, right? "...--I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY A PAINTING?!"

One Hundred and Forty-Ninth

Eventually, they figured it out.

Well...

To an extent, anyway.

Everything was probably in the right order. They even figured out where to put the statues around in the room.

There were just two things left to figure out.

What the pool was and what those animals they were riding were.

The three of them stared down at the remaining slabs.

Most of the slabs were really just them wasting time trying and failing to do things - or so it seemed.

She hoped that's what it was.

If the solution was actually to go around putting things in the 'wrong' places over and over like shown in the tablets...

She wasn't sure what she'd do, but it wouldn't be nice or pretty.

It seemed besides putting the statues in the right places, they just needed to enter the water in the right order in the right way. And then, presumably, that would make their mounts appear.

And then...

They'd be able to ride out of the place.

Somehow.
