A battle that never had to happen in the first place where nothing was gained on either side is pointless. [ Asura insists as they approach the camp, where a number of people dressed for combat, but not in anything resembling a formal uniform. All of the armor and weapons are mismatched, as though scraped together from what the men could find. Many of them are injured, and Taishakuten--the man covered in flowers from before--tends to them.

Before they walk any further, Asura turns his fully toward the Wanderer. ]

Regardless, what you saw back there was no specific battle. This entire scene is just a general representation of something I witnessed countless times in the past... as portrayed by a dream.
