In the sanctuary personally built by Flare, there weren't only members of the adventure team and the demigods escorting them, but also seven or eight royal guards who had followed on the outskirts clearing obstacles also took shelter there. According to Flare, other squads would build their own sanctuaries nearby, so there was no need for anyone to worry. These highly trained rangers were accustomed to maintaining a taciturn demeanor during their missions and would not interact with others unless absolutely necessary. Thus, they were very unobtrusive within the sanctuary. Eventually, they were utterly ignored by everyone until Flare raised a question that reminded everyone that these few individuals were indeed present.
