Miner's Ditch

A shallow trench dug into the muddy ground near the Ravalox mining operations, its uneven sides providing minimal concealment. The ditch is damp and littered with loose clods of earth, offering little real protection from the blast radius of Dibber’s bomb. Peri and Glitz scramble into its shallow depression moments before the explosion, their bodies pressed against the slick sides as the light converter collapses above them. The ditch becomes a temporary island of safety in the chaos, though its fragility is exposed as the ground quakes from the collapse.
