20 kilometers from the walls of the Holy Empire's capital, Elysium...
On the vast plain, 500,000 troops assembled, comprising cavalry, infantry, archers, and mages, arranged in an exceptionally orderly formation.
Behind their frontline, an additional 100,000 troops served as reserves and supply carriers, forming a separate group with equally prepared positions.

They were Valen, Luna, Natasya, Guren, Rain, and Jim, the latter maintaining a calm and distinct expression as he observed the line of troops.
