Chapter XVII — Gulliver of Mars
Chapter XVII begins with the stirring sight of Ar-hap’s return, his army trailing behind like the weary wind.

As the gates open and the soldiers trudge in, the air thickens with tension, not celebration. The once-proud forces now limp into their city with hollow eyes and scorched armor.

Their enthusiasm seems shallow, focused on flowers, music, and pageantry rather than the looming reality of conflict. The protagonist, once hailed as a savior, is now barely acknowledged.
