Broken Tooth claims definitive trail

Broken Tooth’s discovery of the fugitives’ fresh trail pivots the story into open pursuit, stripping away the Doctor’s temporary advantage and forcing confrontation. The leaf litter preserves their path just enough for the hunter to read it, an ominous sign that the planet’s oppressive order still functions through relentless enforcers like Broken Tooth. With the trail confirmed, the rebels and the Doctor’s scattered allies face a binary choice: mobilize an escape or contest the incoming force head-on, knowing failure means capture or death. Ravalox’s lethal ideology now rides the trail behind them, tightening its loop. key_dialogue: [ BROKEN TOOTH: This way. ]
