Soldiers stood in disciplined formations, their armor gleaming under the sun, their weapons at the ready. It was as if they were expecting the group's return, prepared for their arrival.

Flags bearing the country's emblem fluttered defiantly in the wind, a symbol of their allegiance and determination.
