Barbara warns Hlynia against reckless tactics

The Carsinome Control Room’s web guns are the primary instruments of the Zarbi’s dominance, their relentless barrage of sticky tendrils entangling the Menoptra and pinning them in place. These weapons are embedded in the walls, their mechanical hum a constant reminder of the Animus’ control over the battlefield. They fire without mercy, their tendrils wrapping around the Menoptra’s limbs and spears, rendering them helpless. The web guns are not just tools of war—they are symbols of the Animus’ insidious influence, a force that adapts and evolves to counter any resistance. In this moment, they represent the overwhelming odds stacked against the Menoptra, their unyielding assault a metaphor for the relentless pressure they face.

Before: Active and fully operational, embedded in the walls of the Carsinome Control Room. They are firing continuously, their tendrils entangling the Menoptra and restricting their movements.

After: Still active and firing, though Hlynia’s desperate act with her crystal spear has created a new dynamic in the room. The web guns continue their barrage, but the structural integrity of the wall is now compromised, adding an additional layer of danger to the already volatile situation. The tendrils remain a constant threat, their sticky grip a physical manifestation of the Animus’ control.
