Ichtar unleashes the Sea Devil awakening

Ichtar’s command fractures the tense silence outside the hibernation chamber as his voice cuts through the murky half-light.

With a single word, he ignites the final stage of the Silurian war plan, pulling the Sea Devils from their slumber into an elite force primed for conquest. The Doctor’s arrival is now a tactical complication rather than a deterrent—the warriors stir with blind obedience, marking a point of no return where history will either repeat or burn. The awakening sends seismic ripples through the base, and through time itself. key_dialogue: [ ICHTAR: Revive the warriors. ]
