The first one is about searching for food in a wasteland, where the female protagonist can purify things and then raise elves. The second one features a protagonist with superpowers who gradually grows into a powerful figure. The third one involves finding various mutated plants in the wilderness, which can be eaten and used in many ingenious ways.
