Visual Description
A desolate battlefield strewn with fallen soldiers in classical armor lies before a high, fortified city wall. Shields and swords litter the sandy ground, and blood stains the earth around the bodies. The sky above the wall is an ominous, streaked red with pale, cloudlike trails. There are no living figures in the immediate foreground; the scene feels abandoned and final.
