Sutekh's Interrogation Data Panels
Glistening obsidian-like panels embedded in the tomb's walls react to Sutekh's mental commands, lighting up in sequences of shifting blue and crimson runes as he interrogates the Doctor. The interfaces pulse in time with the Doctor's violated consciousness, displaying complex data streams that respond to Sutekh's mental prods, each panel fluorescing brighter during pivotal moments of revelation. The panels are out of place in the ancient tomb, their sleek technology contrasting with the primitive stone surroundings, and Scarman frequently touches them to manipulate the displays during key exchanges.

Purpose
To interface with and display the neurological data extracted during Sutekh's interrogation of the Doctor's memories
Significance
The panels serve as visible proof of Sutekh's technological superiority and his ability to extract and manipulate the Doctor's memories across time, making the Doctor's vulnerability concrete rather than abstract. Their artificial illumination starkly highlights the power imbalance between the ancient Destroyer and the Time Lord.
