Mykros seeks Bandril intervention

Mykros broadcasts a desperate plea for diplomatic intervention to the Bandril Ambassador from the security of the Inner Sanctum.

This futile call raises the stakes, revealing how diplomatic avenues have been exhausted and pushing the Doctor’s allies toward a final confrontation.
