A military unit?

Soon she can see vehicles coming from the cloud. She has never seen anything like this. Four rather large eight-wheeled vehicles with a turret on top look very menacing.

Those metal beasts look like magical monsters from another world.

At the same time, she knows that there are no friends in the wasteland and those strangers are most likely unfriendly and they are moving right to her father's position...

She needs to make a decision and make it quickly.
