He unfurls his eyes fixed on the picturesque landscape before him, desperately willing himself to believe that it is worth savouring. Amidst the turmoil that now blemishes Ryan's tranquil backdrop, it appears almost artificial—

The battlefield lay in an eerie silence, no triumph, no solace. The silence was heavy, burdened with the weight of devastation and the finality of lives lost. This was not peace. It was the grim stillness that follows the fiercest storm, the aftermath that no soul could escape.
